What is a "dummy"?
A dummy is a three-dimensional model used to display clothing designs. Dummies are usually made to mimic the human body, with movable joints that allow for different poses to showcase the garments. They can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, plastic, and foam, and come in different sizes to represent different body types. Dummies are a valuable tool for clothes designers and dressmakers to visualize how a garment will look on a person and to make necessary alterations before cutting and sewing the fabric. They can also be used in stores and showrooms to display clothing for customers to try on or view.
