DESIGN DAILY: Mannequins as Home Accessories?

In Category: Home Accessories

I have been noticing naked mannequins in every store I go to—and these aren’t clothing stores. Small wooden or wire mannequins are being sold as decorative objects through all the home decor manufacturers and I don’t really know how I feel about it. The bare and sometimes faceless dolls are kind of charming yet creepy at the same time. I suppose one or two could be sweet in a dressing area or funky fabulous in vintage-style living room…you think?

These figurines are truly by some of my favorite home design companies, that's what makes me ponder.
