Faced with the challenge of creating a mannequin to represent a Parisian perfume company at a POP UP event in the Hilton Hotel located in New York City, I chose to represent Solanges, Stoned fragrance launched in 2006. 

​

​

With Solanges Stoned packaging as inspiration, the mannequin mimics the Buddha on top of the perfume bottle. Using a Rootstein mannequin, several modifications were made in order to create the four-armed, seated figure. Bondo and filler were used and sanded down to create a completely seamless effect. Swarovski rhinestones laid out on top of vinyl help brand the mannequin and create a tribal pattern on her chest and neck.
