One might think that without a head, arms, and legs, you can’t do much with a mannequin dress form to create Halloween décor. But, ah, think again…
Isn’t this lovely and elegant? This is the Halloween version of the Dress Form Christmas tree where you can take a wire or cloth dress form and turn it into an eco-friendly holiday display.
Dress Form holiday trees are eco-friendly because typically the decorations are faux flowers and garland which can be reused year after year. And after the holiday is over, you can repurpose the dress form to display clothing or jewelry.
Another way to use a dress form for a Halloween display is to put a dramatic costume on it like this sexy witch’s costume.
We have been selling new and used dress forms for over 20 years at Mannequin Madness. And we love to share the creative ways people use dress forms and mannequins for holiday decoration. See our previous posts here using mannequin legs, heads and hands for Halloween displays.
