What mannequins does the Chanel brand use?
Gabrielle Chanel created the Chanel fashion brand in 1909. The first shop opened in Paris in 1913 and was renamed the House of Chanel Fashion in 1919. In the 1930s, all European princesses wore Chanel designs and shortly afterwards the brand won the hearts of Hollywood stars. Chanel becomes one of the most important fashion houses of the century, and every collection is a success. The result is that, to this day, this luxury brand is still considered a fashion benchmark and one of the top brands in the world.
The way in which the designs are presented makes an enormous difference to the perception of the brand, its image, its prestige. The Chanel brand sets trends not only in fashion but is also an inspiration in the design of boutiques or in the use of innovative, ecological solutions, such as ecological mannequins.
The mannequins used in the shop windows of the CHANEL fashion house often assume a particular pose - the figure's hands are gently placed on the hips. Coco Chanel introduced this herself with her shoots, which is why models are often photographed in campaigns - from the very beginning of the brand - with their hands gently tucked into their pockets or palms resting on their hips. This adds a touch of Parisian nonchalance and elegance to the whole look.
Minimalist mannequins in boutique displays
When looking for mannequins to display products in boutiques, it is worth bearing in mind that they should provide a backdrop while still displaying all the strengths of the collection well. Minimalist mannequins or simple handbag stands that look elegant but do not overwhelm the clothes and accessories are therefore perfect, keeping the essentials in the foreground.
Faceless mannequins in simple positions are a popular choice. (e.g., ICON Abstract or ONE), which is also used by luxury brand Chanel. When arranging boutique display with minimalist mannequins, you can opt for models with unique poses (e.g., ICON Classic women's mannequin in Vogue pose?). If you are inspired by the French fashion house - Chanel mannequins are characterised by an egg-shaped head without a face. Such a variant looks mysterious, intriguing and very exclusive.
Chanel handbag stands and accessories
Chanel mannequins often assume poses so that it is possible to display not only items of clothing, but also accessories - handbags, hats or sunglasses. The brand is also keen to use racks in its boutiques. In this way, an exclusive atmosphere is created, and the boutique looks luxurious, tidy, elegant. Are you looking for such products? Be sure to check out the mannequins from the ICON Display collection. It is a line of eye-catching stands for high-end jewellery and accessories, i.e., classics, modernity and finesse in one - the display arms, on which jewellery can be presented in an elegant manner, deserve special attention.
