Store Window DALLAS, Apr 21, 1999/ FW/ --- During the Primavera promotions at the Galleria, Dallas TX, the Clampitt Paper Company wanted to promote their paper products. Don Clampitt, President of the Clampitt Paper Company wanted the promotion to be "different," so he hired a design agency who came up with the concept of using mannequins and "dressing them up" with paper.

Paper is something that the Clampit Paper Company has a lot of. They represent more than 20 paper mills and carry everything from copy paper to coated stocks, recycled grades to writing paper. If you want to know more about the Clampitt Paper Company, you can visit their website at: www.clampitt.com or you can call them at 214-638-3300 or email them at dallas@clampitt.com.

  • Speakeasy

  • The 1920s reincarnated in paper. The mood is created so well, you can almost imagine the speakeasies are just around the corner. Both the dress and the headress are made entirely of paper. This is a good example of using mannequins in displaying merchandise other than garments. The display is not in a window, but in the sitting area of the Dallas Galleria. You can walk around it and see the display from all angles.

  • Here Comes The Bride

  • All brides are beautiful, and this mannequin bride is no exemption. Her gown is very special also because it is all paper. Notice the attention to details on the gown. And of course the attention to details by the visual merchandiser! The "stockings" is not really a stocking, just paper pasted on the legs of the mannequin and if you don't look closely, you will really think that the mannequin is wearing stockings! The grand piano is a great backdrop for this setting.

  • Mardi Gras

  • The magic of New Orleans' Mardi Gras recreated in paper! Let the photos speak for themselves. The gown is a work of art on its own. The quote "A picture is worth of a thousand words." fits this one.

  • Flower Child

  • Remember Woodstock and the 1970s? Though not necessarily retro 60s or retro 70s, this display reminded me so much of that era.

  • Marie Antoinette

  • The legendary Marie Antoinette, Queen of France is recreated here, her wig made of paper, her gown made of paper and her fan the color chips of a paint company. Three photos to show the attention to detail given to this work of art. Visual display seem inadequate to use for this one. It is a work of art!
