Dear Charlotte,
We use a company called Morplan (www.morplan.com) who supply a similar
range of polystyrene bodied figures for £50.95. They are a
shopfittings company, so are also handy for acrylic stands to display
accessories like gloves and hats, if this is something you are
considering.
Regards
Jill

Dear Charlotte,
We recently purchased four mannequins for our coal queens exhibition
from Equipashop, a shop and retail outfitters in Belfast. We found them
on the internet and they delivered very quickly. The mannequins that we
bought were under £50 each and had adjustable wooden bases and
polystyrene bodies with a removable fabric cover. We are very pleased
with them and we actually found with a very small boned dress that we
could shave the polystyrene body down to a tailor made shape to fit this
specific dress.
Hope this helps
Anne

Hello
I have 'some' money to spend on mannequins. They are being purchased
for an exhibition next year on costume - much of it from the 1950's - so
obviously will need some small waists.
Has anyone purchased any good mannequins lately? I would like to get as
many as possible for my money
Many thanks
