So I was walking around in a tailor shop today and it hit me. Tailors need Maniquins! It would be great, they would work like merchants where you place the item of clothing on them and lose it forever but it wears the item and only takes up 1 space in your house, but in the examine window it lists all the clothes the maniquin is wearing. I would suggest however that these are made by master artisans to support cross profession trading.

Sincerely
An Ex-Tailor

i really like the idea of a mannequin feature for us, i have outfits etc wall to wall in my store, but being a naboo style house even with good lights, the walls are dim with the medium naboo. Mannequins would let people examine the whole thing possibly.

mannequins with different stances would be great too.

And yet... SOE does nothing.

We all like this idea, but when push comes to shove, stuff like this gets back-burnered because we still have huuuuge problems (primarily decay, colors, and wanting new schematics). Because manniquins aren't necessary for the vitality of the profession, they will always get shoved into the background.

With unlimited development time, I'd be all over manniquins. But in the real world, I'm not optimistic that we're gonna get them - at least not without sacrificing something else that we currently consider bigger.

I think logistically for this idea to work the mannequin would have to be a crafted (most likely a master artisan item) & once clothing is placed ont he mannequin it cannot be removed to count as 1 item.

This is about the most useful thing for a tailor who runs a shop I can think of.

Here's an Idea for any tailor that also happens to be a merchant...


If you have an extra vendor slot open, create a vendor named "Style of the Week" or something to that effect.

Create an outfit/uniform all the same, make about 11 of them, place one on the vendor to display, and the other ten in packs and put them up for sale on the vendor as a package... Then the following week, whatever has not sold can be moved to your main vendor, and a new style put up. If you had 2 vendors open, one could be done for male and one for female


I think I may try this
