Siegel & Stockman
Introduction
Stockman has been making mannequins and dressmaker busts for 150 years. Handmade in their workshop near Paris, they are made from recycled paper and covered in classic off-white cotton, and are now also available in organic cotton. Stockman mannequins have been reflecting body shapes since the mid-19th century.
The process
Stockman busts require 9 steps, 5 crafts and 24 hours of drying time to be completed. Stockman's expertise is passed down from generation to generation. Thanks to this craftsmanship, Stockman has been supplying busts to the best Haute-Couture houses and fashion companies for decades. All our mannequins, dressmaker busts and trouser leg models come with Stockman's classic black metal tripod, the most stable base to work with.
The busts are mounted with a wooden stick and the classic black wooden "poignée" from Stockman, so that they can be turned without moving the base. The height can also be adjusted. As a symbol of quality, all our mannequins and tailor busts are printed with the black Stockman logo on the neck and the "Made in France" seal on the back.
Stockman Atelier Collection
The models for the Stockman sewing workshops have been handmade near Paris for 150 years. Made from recycled paper mache and covered with the traditional ecru cotton canvas, Stockman models have accompanied the evolution of body shapes for over a century. Their production requires 9 steps, 5 crafts and 24 hours of drying time. Thanks to this unique know-how, passed down from generation to generation, Stockman supplies sewing workshops all over the world with a constantly updated collection.
Unless otherwise requested, all our busts and trouser models are supplied with the traditional black metal Stockman stand, which ensures perfect stability while working. They are equipped with a wooden stick and the traditional black Stockman knob, which – slightly loosened – allows the bust to rotate without moving. They are also height adjustable. As the ultimate symbol of Stockman quality, all our atelier busts are provided with the Stockman logo on the neck and references and waist markings on the stomach.
Stockman Display case collection
By combining the sobriety of the drape with the perfection of the line, Stockman mannequins and busts are the ideal partners for the most beautiful shop windows, shops and boutiques in the world. This elegance allows them to be fully at the service of the garment presented, only being noticed by the refinement of a detail or the perfection of a finish.
Largely handcrafted in the workshop near Paris, the mannequins are made of fibreglass and covered with various, constantly renewed fabrics. In addition to classic cotton and linen coverings, the collection also includes coloured cotton and satin fabrics of a more refined nature, as well as imaginative prints that make these mannequins into fully-fledged decorative objects. There are also several feet available, both in wood and metal.
Thanks to the continuous search for new fabrics and the unparalleled expertise of our seamstresses and finishers, Stockman mannequins are both timeless and extremely trendy presentation objects.
Embodying the modernity of the classic, Stockman mannequins are prized by the world's leading luxury fashion brands and the most fashionable boutiques.
The flexibility of French production makes it possible to produce busts in large or small series, or even individually, almost completely custom-made. This can be done, for example, by using a specific fabric or applying the customer's logo. The endless choice of finishes and the refined, recognizable details make each bust unique.
