If you're wondering how to attract more customers to your clothing showroom, you need to know that you'll achieve this with the right storefront arrangement. By properly setting up full-face mannequins and displaying your clothing collection on them, you will effectively encourage customers to buy your products.
Here are six tried and tested ways to position your children's mannequins to create an attractive, eye-catching shop window:
● You need to ensure the stability of the mannequin by attaching it to the base and tightening all the screws.
● When moving the mannequin, remember to maintain its stability. It is best, for the duration of the transfer, to connect the parts of the manikin together with adhesive tape.
● When placing the mannequin on the shop window, check that the parts fit together and do not stand out, being tilted forwards or backwards.
● If you do not know how many mannequins should be in the shop window, present three different figures (e.g., sitting and standing mannequins, child and adult mannequins).
● Present the interaction between the mannequins or between the mannequins and the customers.
● When arranging a shop window, tell a story. Present an interesting scene.
● Remember the composition and the triangle principle
Tell a story with children's mannequins
To grab the customer's attention, your shop window needs to be truly unique. Present the scene as seen in the photo above involving children's mannequins. In addition to the clothes, add other items that define the character of the characters, their lifestyle and their relationships with others.
Position the full-face mannequins to give the impression that they are performing an activity. Try to represent the emotions of the characters visible in the shop window. In a word, tell a specific story. Using full-face mannequins and your collection of clothes, you can create a scene that your customers will remember for a long time.
Introduce interaction between the mannequins
Introduce dynamism into your scene with interactions that will capture your customer's attention and create a cohesive composition out of the elements in your display. You can juxtapose seated and standing mannequins. You can place child and adult mannequins side by side, creating the impression of a family. You can also mimic the interaction of mannequins with customers. Interactions express cohesion. By using cohesive compositions, you can effectively differentiate your business from a range of other clothing shops.
Arrange your shop mannequins in triangles
If you are wondering how many figures to place in your shop window, use the rule of three - a principle often used in shop window design. A rule that states that the safest form of exhibition composition is to place full-figure mannequins so that they form triangle lines in the composition.
Let the figures vary in dress, style, gender or height. Place seated mannequins next to standing mannequins, and children's mannequins next to adults. In this way, you will display the widest possible range of your products with a simple stage.
Make sure the mannequins are stable
With your shop window arrangement taken care of, you cannot overlook the technical issues involved in the correct positioning of the full-face mannequins. At the outset, check that the mannequin is sufficiently fixed to the base. Tighten the screws so that the mannequin is stationary.Taking care of even the smallest details related to the stability of the mannequin will allow you to avoid one of the parts of the figure falling off.
Carefully fit the parts of the mannequin
Even when the screws are tightened, the different parts of the whole-figure mannequin can move in relation to each other. Check that the ends of the different parts fit together. After each movement of the figures, make sure that the various parts fit together according to the factory settings.
Take care of the mannequins
A shop mannequin can be a fragile object. Sometimes a fall from even a small height onto a solid surface, can lead to a piece of the figure breaking off. Also, its surface can become scratched or dirty, which the customer may notice.
To prevent dirt, scratches and breakage, mannequins should be handled carefully.
