If you are receiving my post for the first time….thank you for reading!

I write about interior design for retail & commercial businesses. With over twenty five years in merchandising and display in both giftware and fashion, I have a lot to offer you. While this post is about Mannequins and an incredible Canadian-made fixture system, the posts definitely are all different. I hope you love it! and will pass it along to your colleagues. Thank you!

What’s new in Mannequins?

Most of you know that I have represented Gender Mannequins of Montreal for a very long time. They have a new website! There are few things more important in sending out your brand message than your choice of mannequins.

History

Gender Mannequins has provided Canadian retailers with products and services since 1997. Its founders Dot and Brian Anderson, window dressers with 60 years’ experience between them, have taken their knowledge of display, fashion, and retail trends, and applied it as the backbone of the company.

Dot and Brian gave me an incredible opportunity years ago while I was doing window displays at Below The Belt to do all their contracted Western Canada Window-Dressing work with companies like Guess, Levi’s and Mexx. It was such a gift!

With our international partners and a finger on the pulse of the retail world, Gender is the first stop for any retailer looking for answers to their interior and window display questions.

Check this out! The new website Who we are, and what we’re about.

Here’s a link to our collections. From here you can zero in on just what you need. Tailor-forms, Children, Females, Males, Sports,…

And here’s something really fun to try…With your own store image you can insert a mannequin or group of mannequins in your own space. Try it out! It’s super easy! Just click on the AR in the top right corner. Then with your cell phone, scan the QR code on the website and follow directions. Here’s an image below that I tried out in my living room.

And…just when you think things couldn’t get any better…Gender Mannequins has added EASY CUBES to its product line.

Modular, Versatile…These units can be shipped within 5-6 business days. White is the standard colour, but custom colors can be ordered with a minimum quantity . This is soooooo exciting! Just send me what space you’re working with, and what you want to do with it, and I’ll help you figure out what you need. Watch youtube here

Well…that’s a wrap. Hope you found this exciting. Call me for details!
