Brand New Merchandise Part 2

Today we are continuing our series highlighting our newest Boutique addition The Ivory Collection. In addition to the 2-way, 3-way and round rack we want to introduce our spiral rack, salesman and double salesman rack.

Spiral Rack

Our Spiral Rack has become a very popular way to display clothing. This rack offers a unique departure from a traditional 2-way rack. This rack allows for the merchandise to cascade down and around offering great visual interest that draws the eye all over the fixture. All sorts of products would be appropriate to display on this rack, however ladies separates tend to look the best. This rack has a fixed height of 63” It can hold approximately 24 individual items. The Ivory rack has the added feature of being able to use decorative finials at the top of the rack to add a little something extra.

Salesman Racks

Our Ivory Salesman Rack features an ivory base coat with a hand painted iridescent white layer that gives the look and sheen of mother of pearl. The rack includes a decorative interlocking circle design on to on top of the rack and half circles at the bottom of each upright bar. This rack has a maximum height of 66” for the hangrail bar.  Additional features include casters and adjustability in 3 inch increments starting at 48”. The weight capacity of this rack is 150-200 lbs.  The double salesman rack offers the same features however this rack features a hangrail bar on the front and rear of the rack. Each of these racks are a wonderful choice to highlight clothing that features cool colors and sophisticated styling.

Mannequin Alternatives

Mannequin Alternatives

There are all sorts of ways that you can display clothing merchandise. Clothing display is one of the most creative endeavors that you can pursue in retail merchandising. A good display can draw attention to your store and bring in new customers. A bad display can simply cause your customers to pass on otherwise good merchandise because it was not shown in its best light.

Today we want to touch on some alternative ways that you can display individual merchandise and some of our products that can help you to achieve that. We want to take you beyond the traditional mannequin and introduce you to some alternatives.

Hook Stand

Hook Stands are a wonderful way to highlight a single article of clothing. The hook stand features an adjustable upright arm that extends from 18” to 36” in height so you can display a wide range of product. The hook stand is not just for clothing. This is a great item for handbags and other fashion accessories as well.

Tubular Ladder Mannequin

The tubular ladder mannequin has been a staple in our inventory for years now. It makes sense to have some displayers around and this is no exception. What is unique about this item is that it is very lightweight and easy to assemble. Additional features include metal hooks to suspend it.

If displaying t-shirts, sweatshirts or other active wear is your business, this display can be changed daily. It is very easy to assemble and disassemble giving your retail space a fresh look all the time.

We will continue this series later in the week. In the mean time, please keep the creativity going! As always, check in with us for the latest on merchandise and retail information. Visit us on Facebook and Twitter for updates, sneak peaks and member exclusives. We appreciate your feedback and your comments.
