Mannequins Are Protected By Copyright Law

Mannequin designers at Rootstein find their creations frequently copied by cheaper manufacturers.

VMSD.com: "If the mannequin you acquire imitates a higher-priced model in design, pose, paint, facial expression or some other details, you’re likely breaking the law. Retailers face legal liability if there’s a whiff of suspicion that they conspired to have cheaper imitations produced. And – here’s the big cautionary message – retailers are liable even if they didn’t know the mannequins they purchased were copies."
