Mannequin (object)

A mannequin is a display object featured in The Sims 2: H&M Fashion Stuff, The Sims 3: Into the Future, and The Sims 4: Get to Work. Mannequins are humanoid figures sculpted to look like another Sim in order to showcase off a piece of clothing or an outfit, and to see what it would look like on a Sim's body.
==The Sims 2: H&M Fashion Stuff==
The Sims 2: H&M Fashion Stuff pack provides three mannequins to the game: two variations of Zecutine's Stand Me Up Mannequins and Psst Over Here Mannequin.https://sims2-objectdefaults.dreamwidth.org/133012.html These objects are found under Decoration → Sculptures and act as purely cosmetic decorative objects for setting up a bontique.
====Notes====
==The Sims 3: Into the Future==
The Sims 3: Into the Future introduces two mannequin displays. Sims can use these objects to purchase outfits. There is no business aspect to these displays, but other Sims can autonomously interact with them and browse different outfits.
By default, only outfits from Into the Future expansion are automatically shown, but outfits from other packs can also be displayed by planning outfits. Outfits for all Sims aged child and older can be displayed on the mannequins, and the automatic display options always display an outfit that can be worn by the Sim that generated the outfit. Other Sims can not take an outfit from the display if their age and gender do not match.
There is a community lot type which already includes these displays, called a gallery shop, but the lot type is not necessary in order to interact with displays.

*Create Custom Outfit: Functions similar to a dresser. This options allows the Sim performing the action to change their outfits. These outfits won't be displayed on the mannequin. They will be automatically equipped instead. If the display is on a community lot, this option is named as Purchase Custom Outfit, and costs §425.
*Take Displayed Outfit: Adds the outfit on the display to the available clothing options. Costs §45 if the display is placed on a community lot. This option is disabled if the age and gender do not match.
When first clicked on, the mannequins will often (on an average of more than 9/10 cases) claim that it doesn't match the Sim's name and age, especially due to them treating Young Adult Sims and Adult Sims differently. This is resolved by having a Sim choose "Display Outfit…", who will then walk over to the mannequin and make it change the outfit on display into a different one that will match the Sim's age and gender. Alternately, one can +left-click on a mannequin while in Buy Mode and set the "DEBUG: Set Default Age…" and "DEBUG: Set Default Gender…" options.
===Plan outfits===
Outfits created with "Plan Outfit" on eligible lots count towards the "The Trendsetter" challenge in the almanac of time, but many special circumstances apply to such planned outfits. The player-created outfits will enter the outfit rotation and won't remove the default outfits from the rotation. "Plan Outfit" can simultaneously add all 6 of the outfit types that are created in the same Create-a-Sim session to the rotation, and can also make use of multiple outfits for a type. Planned outfits only apply to the lot that the outfit was planned on.

==The Sims 4: Get to Work==
In The Sims 4: Get to Work, mannequins are used in retail businesses and in Create a Sim for when a business owner is customizing the uniform of employees. There can be up to ten mannequins per lot.
===Business uses===
Mannequins are mostly used to display outfits for other Sims to buy in a retail business. Mannequins can be posed in a number of postures and idle positions in order to show off the merchandise. Customers can walk up to a mannequin and try on the clothing that the mannequin is wearing to see if they like it before deciding on purchasing the clothing
Mannequins can be dressed in everyday, formal, athletic, sleep, party, or swimwear. Mannequins can have a number of presets for outfits that are either created by the player or .
They can wear any type of clothing or accessory that a Sim can wear. There are four types of body types of mannequins and two types of mannequins: There are two adult bodies (both of which display clothing for teens and older) and two child bodies (both of which display clothing for children only).
As well as the two types of mannequins are normal blank mannequins and others that have more detail to look like Sims, such as a more realistically modeled head that includes eye sockets, mouth, nose, and hair.
