I really like these mannequins. That's not my body type, nor would I wear those shirts. But someone with that body type looks good in shirts like that, so using those mannequins gives those people a much better idea of how it'll look on them

This has been done for years now in women's fashion and I still don't get it. These mannequins have my body type and it just feels so defeatist. When I see the shirt on a healthier looking model, I know damn well what it's going to look like on me; it's not the first damn shirt I've bought. At least for a minute while I'm looking at the model though I think, "that shirt looks nice" instead of "don't bother spending money on that shirt, you cant polish a turd - save up for a treadmill instead lard-ass"
