No clothing store or boutique is complete without a selection of mannequins and body forms displaying clothing. The benefits are plentiful to the point that they have become essential for fashion retailers. The obvious and most common use of mannequins is to entice passers-by with eye-catching outfits in a tasteful window display that piques someone's interest enough to tempt them inside the store for a look around. After window displays have done their job and a customer enters the store, body forms and other similar displays are a great way of showing how certain items of clothing fit or how they combine with other garments you stock.
It is important to consider the style and colour of your mannequins and how they will complement the overall aesthetic of your clothing store or boutique. The ever-popular line of realistic mannequins can be found in stores across the country and abstract mannequins in a variety of poses are often chosen by upscale boutiques. Dressmaker forms are timeless thanks to their elegant design while lightweight and economically priced body forms are perfect for displaying clothing from hangrails in front of the various sizes you have in stock.
To display entire outfits, consider full-body mannequins. From there, you have the option of classic realistic mannequins or stylish abstract mannequins. If full-body mannequins are not necessary for your needs, dressmaker forms are a great option. Their timeless design ensures they will never go out of fashion. Female dress forms are great for displaying (yep, you guessed it!) dresses. Male dress forms are often used for displaying shirts, suit jackets and really any above the waist clothing items. Hanging body forms are an inexpensive yet effective space-saving display that can be hung from hangrails or clothing racks. They also make for a great alternative to mannequins in a window display. To display children's clothing, you have the choice of full-body child mannequins, child dressmakers, child body forms and even toddler and baby mannequins. If you can't find exactly what you are looking for from our huge selection of standard stocked mannequins & clothing display forms, our team of experts can help you create custom mannequins.
