Does anyone use a mannequin and if so any recommendations? I've seen you can get adjustable ones. Thanks.

i sell on ebay for a cat charity and i use a mannequin for clothes they do look better than hung up on a doorframe, mainly for tops and coats / jackets trousers are a nightmare to put on , i have one that is just the body / torso part and find its plenty and if the clothing is too big for the mannequin i get very creative with pegs at the back out of sight like they do in bridal shops , no idea on make as mine dosent have a makers mark

If they're your own clothes in your size then I always prefer seeing them modeled on a real person.

Just don't buy a creepy 1970s mannequin with dead eyes that follow you around the room. You'll never sleep at night again!

I bought a tailors dummy from eBay and my daughter sold treble the amount she would have in a very short time. They come in different sizes and the clothes look so much better on them than a hanger. I paid £30. Best investment everSmile
