- What Is Ghost Mannequin?
The invisible model effect.
Ghost mannequin photography, or invisible mannequin photography, or neck joint, is an advanced type of photography whose main goal is to make the mannequin invisible in the photos of clothes.
The idea is to merge several images of the same dress into a single picture showing the back part of the dress and emphasizing necklines, collars, seams, and brands. The result will be a high-quality finished product that builds confidence in the buyer regarding the fashion industry.
