This is a great addition to a presentation and helps set a good atmosphere. Even police departments are using mannequins to deter drivers from speeding, by placing them on highways, holding false radar detectors. There are unlimited arenas mannequins can serve. Candy stores can use them to hold samples, dressed with an apron, or furniture stores can use them to set a nice living room scene. Display designers from every realm are seeking inventive ways to utilize this foundational visual display fixture, and they are having huge success.
Though mannequins are still most commonly used for clothing retail, they are also an extremely valuable tool for so many inventive visual marketing displays. Businesses around the world are beginning to figure this out. The human eye loves mannequins for some reason. They are intriguing to the point that most customers will notice them, and for this reason, are a huge asset to the display design world, regardless of category.
