Crafting Mannequin Displays

Mannequins are a hidden gem for Disney Dreamlight Valley Adventurers who enjoy creating clothing ensembles for a quick wardrobe change. They are also great for displaying your custom creations! However you want to use them, here is how to craft Mannequins in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

Updated 07-20-24

Multiple Mannequin Options

As you would expect, mannequins stand in different poses. So, when you arrive at your crafting station, you will find 6 different mannequin recipes to choose from.

  • Thoughtful Black Mannequin
  • Relaxed Black Mannequin
  • Hand on Hip Black Mannequin
  • Relaxed White Mannequin
  • Chin up White Mannequin
  • Hesitant White Mannequin

Mannequins can only be placed inside a building. Also, only 5 mannequins can occupy a single room.

ProTip: The pictures of the mannequins you see at your crafting station, give you the impression that some of the mannequins are male and others female. When you actually craft and place them, however, they take on the gender of your character.

ProTip: When you’re ready to place your mannequins in a room, go to your Furniture menu. You will find the completed mannequins under Utilities.

Interact to Save Your Ensemble

Mannequins are a very handy option for those looking for a quick, full ensemble, wardrobe change.

Interact with the mannequin to save the complete outfit you are wearing, including shoes, accessories, hair color and styles. This allows you to come back later and retrieve the ensemble by simply interacting with it again. When you do, you can either “wear” the complete outfit your mannequin is displaying or “edit” the mannequin’s outfit. Editing the mannequin replaces the outfit left on the mannequin the last time you visited it, with the one you are currently wearing.
