The difference between Flat Lay and Ghost Mannequin photography lies in presentation and depth:
-
Flat Lay: Garments are laid flat on a surface and photographed from above. It gives a clean, 2D view and is quick to produce. It’s ideal for social media and basic product displays.
-
Ghost Mannequin: The clothing is photographed on a mannequin, which is digitally removed in post-production. This creates a 3D effect, showing shape and fit as if worn by an invisible model — ideal for professional e-commerce listings.
