How to Make a Ghost Mannequin?

To create a ghost mannequin effect, follow these steps:

1. Photograph the Product and the Inner Neck Area

   • Take one photo of the garment on a mannequin.

   • Take a second photo of the garment inside-out or showing the inner neck area (off the mannequin), ideally in the same lighting and angle.

2. Open Images in Photoshop

   • Load both images into Photoshop as layers. Place the mannequin shot on top.

3. Select and Mask the Garment

   • Use tools like Pen Tool, Quick Selection Tool, or Object Selection Tool to isolate the garment from the mannequin.

   • Create a layer mask to remove the mannequin.

4. Add the Inner Neck Image

   • Place the neck/inner area image behind the masked garment layer.

   • Adjust and align it carefully to fit the perspective.

5. Refine Edges and Blend

   • Use soft erasing, feathered selections, or layer masks to clean up edges.

   • Adjust brightness, contrast, and shadows to match lighting.

6. Export Final Image

   • Save the final image in your desired format (e.g., PNG or JPEG), ready for use in e-commerce or catalogs.
