mannequins

Store window models

Mannequins are life-sized human figures used to display clothing in stores.

They're typically made of fiberglass or plastic, posed in lifelike positions, and may have realistic features or be stylized and featureless.

The word extends to people who seem stiff or expressionless: She stood there like a mannequin.

In medical and emergency training, mannequins are practice dummies for CPR or other procedures.
