Various sorts of mannequins,` dummies,"` and forms, are in use for dress shops andwindows,
` i fiIhe present inventionjrelatesgenerally.todise? i 'play forms, andin particular to formsfordisand Atheselare somf-iwhat` expensive,A to warrant i ,use ofnumerous ones atV a' single location.:` In

Fig. 1 represents in perspective a form. Fig. 2 represents a standard .type of dress hanger for display.
accompanying Fig. 3 represents the combinationof` the form of Fig. 1v and the stand of Fig. 2, with in rear view.
f. Fig. 4 is a modiedform (rear view), especially` the form e adaptable for the display of bathing suits and like legged articles. p e
Fig. 5 shows a modied stand of Fig. 2 as it is i adapted for and used with the modied form of "Fig, 4. i e
Fig. 6 is a view of the bottom of the form as taken on line 6--6 of Fig. 3.
- l Fig. 7 is a detailed view of the top of the stand.
In Fig.` 1, the formr may be 4considered as a hollow article with a shell-like structure to make inside under the shoulders, as on the hanger 25.
The opening may be extended at 3| down the spine region to the bottom edge, making Winglike portions 32 and 33 at the rear. The stand-` ard 2| may enter into this opening `3l in hanging the form l0 on hangerZG. To` keep the form from rocking where it is entirely open at lthe base, suitable supporting means may connect the standard 2l with the body of form l0. This is illustrated by a closure member, such as a sheet of plywood 34 (Fig. 6) secured to the base;
The board is preferably made in contour to con- `form to the opening of the base, and provides rigid reinforcement to prevent the ` wings 32 and 33 moving from normal designed position. The board'34 has a notch or recess 35 extending from the spinal opening 3l to a position near the center to receive the standard 2l.
1 Dresses, coats` and thelike may be hung on` the combination as shownlin Fig. 3. Also, fabrics in the bolt, or in lengths may bedraped over the form in various ways and the openings 30 and 3l and also the hanger parts may be used ,to receive or hold the ends, Vfolds orv loops of the fabric as is convenient for the character Vof the ,draping Of course, it is to be understood that for some displays a shorter form may be used.

omitting the hip region Il, and even the waistline,y preserving the bust region, however, to give `fullness to the display. v
For displaying an article such as bathing trunks, the form of Fig. l is not satisfactory vto give fullness to display of the trunks. By a modification, the vform may be extended to provide a new form 39 with leg portions 4D (Figs. 4 and 5) extendingto a pointbelovv thek crotch 4|, and by omitting all or part of the opening 31| in the back.
The opening 30,is retained for receipt of rthe A lateral S-shaped extenf.
sion 42 with a threaded socket end 43 is screwed` onto bolt 24 to lie on shoulder 25 on Athe stand.
The other end of the extension has a construction like the end of rod 22 to carry the hanger 26 or other T-cross-member, in a position forward of l the spindle. 'The light Weight of the form, thev spread of the base 20, and the length of the exf tension, taken in consideration with the weight of garments tolbe displayed, are'such as to prevent @ver-'balancing of the display unit when mounted.
The opening across the shoulders and the opening of the spine are'in eiect andfunction one opening each extending the other. It is of course to be understood that the general shape of this opening may be varied from the T-form of Fig. 3 andlfrom' the line-form 'of Fig. 4, and also varied in shape.v The length of the shoulder opening may be shortenedwhere ashorter support than the standard hangerZBis used.
