The ghost mannequin technique is a photo editing method used in product photography, especially for clothing. It involves taking multiple images of a garment—typically one with a mannequin and one without—and then combining them in post-processing (e.g. Photoshop) to create the illusion that the clothing is worn by an invisible person.
Purpose:
It gives a clean, 3D-like view of the clothing without distractions, showing the inner shape and fit clearly while maintaining a professional, high-end look for online stores.
