An exhibition of haute couture creations is even more stunning when the mannequins they are displayed on add to the drama. The fashion exhibit “The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier: From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk” is a perfect example of mannequins not as just a hanger, but actually part of the show itself.
The exhibition uses everything from mannequins poses in S&M positions like this one:
And jet black dress forms that rotate to showcase a collection of bustiers worn by Madonna on her Blond Ambition Tour, which can see on this video below.
But what is really off the chain is the “talking” mannequins with video-animated faces as in the clip below.
A big budget exhibition like this no doubt has a bigger budget than the average museum exhibit. But we encourage more museums to look different options for displaying garments. We offer a wide variety of mannequins for sale and for rent at Mannequin Madness so that your fashion exhibit can go from “ho-hum” to “Fabulous!
