Mannequin - interesting facts and information

  1. Application: Mannequins are typically used to display clothing in stores, allowing customers to see how a particular product might look on a person. They can also be used to create scenes in a store, which helps promote a particular style or brand. Mannequins are also used in medical and rescue training to teach cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or other procedures.
  2. Types: There are different types of mannequins, from full-size figures to half-mannequins to mannequins with only a head or arm. Mannequins can depict men, women, children and even animals.
  3. History: Mannequins in retail began to appear in the early 19th century, when stores began displaying clothing on standing figures. The first mannequins were very realistic, often created by sculptors and painted to look like real people. Over time, to simplify production and reduce costs, mannequins became less realistic and more abstract.
  4. Controversy: There is often controversy about mannequins, especially when it comes to their dimensions. Critics argue that mannequins usually have incorrect proportions that do not reflect the true variety of shapes and sizes of the human body. In recent years, some brands have begun to introduce mannequins in different sizes and shapes to better represent their clientele.
