Mannequin History

Rootstein Mannequin Series – Latina Mannequins

Since September is National Hispanic Heritage month, I am devoting this blog to all the Rootstein mannequins that were sculpted  from models of Hispanic descent.

1 Simone – Puerto Rican

2 Pal (Palmira) Henry – Afro Latina from Puerto Rico

3 Violetta Sanchez – Spain

4 Ulla (German Dad, Columbian Mother)

If you know of any male models of Latin descent that Rootstein turned into mannequins let me know. The only male I am that I am aware of is Oriol Elcacho. He is a Spanish male model from Barcelona. He is known for being the face of BVLGARI’s AQVA.
