This is a picture of Mannequins in Sweden that has supposedly taken the world by 'storm'. The story can be found here
Some people have commented that mannequins like this will promote obesity etc. but I don't understand how; these are supposed to be 'average' sized figures. What surprises me is how life-like they actually are, I'm drawn to their knees... I thought it was just mine that looked like that same as that and the shape of the stomachs aren't totally flat, its nice to know that my body isn't an abnormality in society. I forget that images are altered and transformed to be 'perfect' which is a dangerous thing to do in this modern day.
I do think that it would be really weird going into a shop with mannequins like this though, it would take a lot of getting used to, I can't see it happening any time soon that's for sure but some sort of progress is still positive!
What do you think about them? Positive or Negative?
