Still on the look out for a mannequin
I am still on the look out for a Mannequin, just wondering what shops I could try and approach for any second hand and no longer wanted mannequins? When the big stores get rid of their Mannequins, I wonder how they dispose of them?

A lot are 'hired' in. Ebay is a good source as well as trawling the net for sales outlets or stockists. I picked up a torso to use as a pattern for my bike tank and I found it, by just using Google, 12 miles from home.

I have looked at local stockist near me, but the fiberglass Mannequins are just so expensive. That's why I was thinking were do shops dispose of their old Mannequins, but as you said most stores will probably rent them. I have trawled the net for days and days, and I have seen some cracking Mannequins that I really would love, but the location makes it not practical. Most of the search results that come up, are for Mannequins located in the USA. By the time shipping and insurance is added, the Mannequin becomes far too expensive! I have been keeping a watch on the popular auction sites, but no joy as of yet! Oh well, the search goes on |

Hello again Jonboy. Just a suggestion for your quest for a mannequin.
You could try asking for the window-dresser in any large department store, then ask them if they have anydamaged or obsolete mannequins you could buy. Tell them its for an art project. You never know, you could strike lucky and get one really cheap or even free. |
