My wish to Santa this year is to bring shoes to all the barefoot mannequins of the world!
Even if it wasn’t winter, I’d be ranting about my biggest merchandising pet peeve – mannequins without footwear. It drives me crazy, bonkers and just plain nutty. Weber State University Bookstore gets it right with Ms. Mannequin all decked out from head to toe. It’s a little attention to detail that thrills me to no end. Ballet flats, running shoes, boots, whatever…give your mannequin and your displays some respect!
You can measure up your mannequin for fit using the chart at ehow inches shoe size conversion. Going up a size will help with sliding on the shoe. If the foot is angled, use a Velcro tab to hold the shoe in place.
