Choosing the right wig for your retail mannequins

Window dressers often have to ask themselves how the best presentation of retail mannequins can be achieved. Often, wigs are part of the solution for this problem. Retail mannequins complemented with wigs are often more lifelike and realistic compared to mannequins without wigs attached to them. Unfortunately, wigs are seldom delivered together with mannequins by the store fitting retailers. One reason for this circumstance is the often changing trends of hairstyles, so wigs often get obsolete quite fast. This is why window dresser often choose the suitable wig according to what suits the planned store window composition best. This is especially true for the presentation of ladies fashion with female mannequins, where wigs are more or less essential. For this years spring collection, wig with short cut hair seem to be in vogue, while wigs with long hair seem to be the preferred choice for presenting the autumn and winter collections.

All in all, this approach isn’t very eco-friendly.
