The size and height of the average female mannequin is too large to fit vintage clothing. And a teen age size mannequin won’t have the right body proportions.
Mannequin Madness has several choices short stature adult female mannequins for you to choose from. We have this mannequin who is 5’5” tall and a bust of 30.5” and waist 23.5” and hip of 33”.
She also has formed hair, which was a popular look of mannequins for the 1940’s -1960’s. But if you don’t want the formed hair, you can put a wig on the mannequin.
2 Mannequins with egghead versus realistic faces are a more contemporary style. Our Gabriella series mannequin is very popular among high end retailers and museums.
