Mannequins are an interpretation of reality, they were initially created to fit fashion requirements, but just in the same way that fashion evolved, so did they. They come now in different poses and with unique characteristics, ones are realistic, and others are completely abstract. Then, it is fair to ask, how do I choose the ideal mannequin?
Before doing so, ask yourself the following questions:
- Where is the mannequin going to be placed?
- What is the mannequin going to be wearing?
- What is the mannequin’s purpose?
- Who is your audience?
Once you have answered those questions, take a look at our glossary on mannequins which will guide you towards the right one!
Glossary
- Ghost mannequins
This is the ideal mannequin if you have an e-commerce platform because it facilitates the edition of your pictures so that your garments are the star of the show. A ghost mannequin can be disassembled according to the item that you want it to wear and the reason behind its name is that the mannequin is supposed to not be seen and clothes would look as if they are floating.
- Sports mannequins
These mannequins are great to inspire people to start working out! You can find all types of bodies, with muscles, in a bigger size, etc, because c’mon! We can all work out! (if we really want to…). These mannequins come in athletic poses and are ideal to showcase products for different activities such as soccer, yoga, golf, etc.
