The present invention relates to a display and more particularly to a display such as a tailors dummy or mannequin, which is used to display articles of clothing. Existing mannequins suffered from the disadvantages that they were bulky and heavy and often required large storage spaces. They were also expensive to manufacture, bulky, heavy and not particularly visually striking in appearance. The invention overcomes these disadvantages by way of a display comprising: a plurality of planar display pieces. The pieces are adapted to engage one with another so as to define a display and they are light transmissive that is they are either transparent or translucent. As a result of this a visually striking display is achieved by virtue of the fact that light is radiated from the pieces, thereby creating the impression of pieces that fluoresce. Light may be radiated from ambient sources or from a light source, such as an incandescent or halogen lamp, a light emitting diode (LED) or laser LED. Display pieces are formed from a rigid material such as synthetic plastics or glass. Different coloured light sources may be arranged to illuminate separate pieces. |
