# Make ghost mannequin shots (https://docs.apparelai.app/ai-tools/ghost-mannequin)
AI Ghost Mannequin turns a garment photo into a clean invisible-mannequin product shot. The garment holds its shape with no visible mannequin, hanger or model, and the fabric drape and the inside of the collar or neckline are kept. Use it when a marketplace or your store needs ghost mannequin photos and you don't want to do a mannequin photoshoot.

## When to use it [#when-to-use-it]
- Amazon and Shopify listings that require ghost mannequin shots
- Catalog teams that want to skip a real mannequin photoshoot
- Brands that need front, back and side views for every SKU
## What to upload [#what-to-upload]
- **Front view (required).** A photo of the front of the garment. It can be on a hanger, on a mannequin, laid flat or worn by a model. Backgrounds are cleaned up automatically, and the model is removed from on-model photos.
- **Back view and Side view (optional).** Photos of the back and the side of the same garment. Add them when you want those views to show the garment's real back and side.
## How to make ghost mannequin photos [#how-to-make-ghost-mannequin-photos]
### Open AI Ghost Mannequin [#open-ai-ghost-mannequin]
On the web, select **AI Tools** in the sidebar, then **Ghost Mannequin** under **IMAGE TOOLS**.
The highlighted **Outputs to generate** sets which views you get back.
### Upload your garment photos [#upload-your-garment-photos]
Upload the front photo under **Front view**. If you have them, add a photo of the back under **Back view** and a photo of the side under **Side view**.
### Choose the views [#choose-the-views]
Under **Outputs to generate**, **Front view** is selected at first. Also select **Back view**, **Side view** or both if your listing needs them. Each view comes back as a separate image.
### Choose the aspect ratio and resolution [#choose-the-aspect-ratio-and-resolution]
Under **Aspect ratio**, pick **Match input**, **Square (1:1)**, **Portrait (4:5)**, **3:4**, **Vertical (9:16)** or **Landscape (16:9)**. **Square (1:1)** is selected at first. Under **Resolution**, pick **1K (fastest)**, **2K (balanced)** or **4K (premium)**.
### Create the shots [#create-the-shots]
Select **Create mannequin shots**. The button shows the cost, **2 cr** for the front view at 2K, and becomes available once you've added the front photo. Each SKU is ready in under a minute.

## What you get [#what-you-get]
One ghost mannequin image for each view you select under **Outputs to generate**: front, plus back and side if you add them. That's up to three listing shots in one run.

## Tips for a good result [#tips-for-a-good-result]
- Use a well-lit, wrinkle-free photo with the full garment in frame.
- Steam the garment first. Fold lines can come back looking like creases.
- Shoot straight on rather than at an angle, so the pattern isn't distorted.
- The sharper and straighter your photo, the more faithful the details, like prints and logos.
- Pick the shape your marketplace asks for under **Aspect ratio**, like **3:4** for Myntra.
- Check your marketplace's current image rules before you upload.
## More product shots [#more-product-shots]
- **From a photoshoot:** for garments like dresses, shirts and tops, the **Photo Shoot Result** page lists **Ghost Mannequin Front**, **Ghost Mannequin Back** and **Ghost Mannequin Side** under **PRODUCT SHOTS**. See [Edit and improve results](/photoshoots/edit-results).
- **Shirts:** [Shirt mode](/garment-modes/shirt) lets you upload logo, collar and cuff details separately for tighter control. For flat and folded shirt shots, see [Shirt product shots](/product-shots/shirt).
- **Ethnic wear:** sarees and blouses have their own dedicated product shots, including a [blouse front and back view on an invisible mannequin](/product-shots/blouse). See [Product shots](/product-shots).
- **Video:** turn a ghost mannequin shot into a video with Product spin, which is made for photos without a model. Seamless loop and Detail reveal work well on product pages too. See [Turn a photo into a video](/video/image-to-video).
