Photo 1 - who chopped off Rick Santorum’s head?
All I ever notice in stores is whether they have what I want or not, and whether it’s reasonably priced so I don’t feel the need to look elsewhere. I’m FAR more critical of stores like Best Buy who seem to utilize a random-access organizational scheme than whether the mannequins are modern or whatever. How do you modernize a mannequin, anyway? Give it an ear-ring and put manboobs on the male ones?
ROFL. When I read that, I thought to myself: "Isn't modernizing a mannequin a lot like modernizing a garbage can?"
Mannequins have gone back to the “life like” model with heads and very posable, away from the “filled out hanger” model in the pictures, also the current trend is to put them in “real” circumstances with chairs and couches. It’s a pendulum that swings back and forth, but being on the opposite side does make a store (and therefore the selection) look dated, it instantly tells people that your target market is 20 years older than them.
