Mannequins not so central to FixturesCloseUp overall, so in compensation let me steer you to a the April 2015 Edition of VMSD Magazine and “The Silent Sellers Are Speaking Out” by industry-recognized Steve Kaufman. Focus on the latest trends in Mannequin design and visual merchandising just as I did, if only to broaden your total horizons. But do return for what there is in Mannequins-in-closeup here on FixturesCloseUp far below. And if interested in Silent Selling, then do try my “Sales Psychology and Empowerment” immediately below.
