What it is

What is ghost mannequin editing?

Ghost mannequin (also called "invisible mannequin" or "hollow-man") editing combines multiple shots of a garment — shot on a mannequin, then the neck/collar and interior shot separately — into one seamless image where the mannequin is completely removed.

The result is a garment that looks naturally worn and three-dimensional, with the collar, interior and sleeves properly blended, but no mannequin visible anywhere in the frame.

FAQ

Questions about Ghost Mannequin.

Do I need to shoot the garment on a mannequin first?+

Yes — we recommend shooting the front on a mannequin plus a separate flat/interior shot of the neckline. We'll guide you on the exact shot list.

What is a neck join and why does it matter?+

It's the blend between the mannequin-shot collar and the flat interior shot — a poorly done join is the most common giveaway in ghost mannequin work. Ours is hand-blended to be invisible.

Can you do this from a single photo without an interior shot?+

In some cases yes, using a reconstructed interior, but results are best with a proper interior/flat-lay shot supplied.

Do you handle bulk apparel catalogs?+

Yes — our team regularly processes large seasonal batches for wholesale and DTC apparel brands.
