In 2023, the import of tailor's dummies and display dummies to France stood at approximately 1.612 million kilograms. The forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a gradual decline in the volume of imports, with a notable year-on-year decrease: 2024 (-3.1%), 2025 (-3.0%), 2026 (-3.0%), 2027 (-3.0%), and culminating in a 3.1% reduction by 2028. The overall Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the period is around -3.0% annually, reflecting a consistent downtrend in import volume.
Future trends to watch for:
- Increased emphasis on eco-friendly and sustainable production in the fashion industry could influence demand for new dummies.
- The rise of 3D technology and virtual fitting rooms might further reduce the dependency on physical dummies.
- Any shifts in retail trends or disruptions in global trade could impact future import volumes.
