PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an improved ostomy appliance. SOLUTION: An ostomy body fitment for attaching an ostomy pouch to a person's body comprises a shapeable adhesive pad and a shape defining member. In a first annular fixed shape area, the shapeable pad is supported and shaped by the shape defining member. In a second central reshapeable area, a portion of the adhesive pad is unsupported by the shape defining member, and can be molded to fit an individual's stoma. A flexible flange for removable adhesive attachment to the ostomy pouch has an attachment area outside the periphery of the shape defining member, to reduce direct application of external forces.
