How many mannequins does it take to change a window?

This sounds like a tricky question, but in today’s challenging retail market, shop owners have to look at every penny they spend on their shop windows that need to do the job of "drawing" in customers.




Seen recently at a  shop window in London of retail chain Whistles, window merchandisers were on hand to draw in the crowd by "drawing"  the backdrop designs free-hand.
Impressive work indeed.  The “act” was itself entertaining for passers-by and the original “art” created was part of a current movement in which doodling and line-drawing play a crucial role in design.
Launched recently was an on-line site called window-kit which provides window display kits in the form of vinyl stickers that can be pasted onto the glass of shop windows.
 

The designs come in various themes and you can browse through an on-line catalogue to make your order. There are over 200 designs to choose from, so shop owners who do not have the budget of big chain retailers, can order these sticker kits to apply and update as often as desired.

Meanwhile, as had been promoted in various trade fairs, was UK company Mannakin that specialises in mannequin hire, sales, care and recycling for a variety of creative productions.


So to answer the question in the headline above, that depends on how big is your window and your budget.  Mannakin allows you to buy or sign up a long term rental service so you can change your mannequins in your shop or store windows as often as you wished.
