A mannequin is digitally removed from a clothing image using the Photoshop ghost mannequin effect, a post-production method that gives the impression that the garment is floating or being worn by an invisible body. Masking, layer manipulation, and image selection all require considerable thought in this procedure. Isolating the clothing, taking down the mannequin, blending photos for a smooth appearance, and fine-tuning elements like highlights and shadows are important tasks. The end effect is a polished product photograph that clearly and concisely highlights the shape, fit, and qualities of the clothing.
