Ghost Mannequin Photography

 


Ghost mannequin photography is a simple and effective way for a clothing photographer

to show off the outfit. Mannequins help your product maintain its original shape so that buyers can imagine the outfit for themselves without being influenced by the appearance of the model in the outfit, as is common in the product photography lifestyle. However, mannequins can be annoying, so there's a simple solution: you can create a ghost doll effect in your product images.

 

Reasons for such a popular type of product photography:



·        Bridging the gap between online and offline so users can see clothes the way they see them.

·        Minimizing potential buyers' doubts about spare parts - after seeing the Ghost Mannequin photos, consumers can better imagine such outfits.



  • Limitation:

 

  • Post-processing is usually quite expensive and time-consuming.

  • This photographic equipment is expensive, especially for next-generation photo dolls with magnetically interchangeable parts.

  • Not suitable for beginners in terms of lighting settings. Hence, online shop owners are advised to hire professionals who provide ghost mannequin services for the highest return on investment.




  • Advantages:

  • Easy to set up with minimal and inexpensive accessories such as clips, pens and double-sided tape.
  • These photos create dynamic and action-packed live images, contrasting the lifeless flat position.

  • Can be combined with appropriate props, accessories and elements to create an overall picture.

 

The most common uses of Ghost Mannequin Photo Layout

 

This technique is commonly used to create commercial images of:

 

Upper part: T-shirts, Shirts, Vest, jackets, etc.

Lower part: Jeans, Pants, Shorts, etc.

Other parts: Gowns, hats, etc.

 

In general, ghost mannequins are most likely to be used for premium clothing e-commerce stores, where the products are rich in fine details. Coats, jackets and outerwear also require the use of ghost figures - because larger items don't look comfortable in a flat format.
