Does this do the full ghost mannequin composite automatically?

PixMiller handles the background removal step — which is the tedious part. For the full ghost mannequin effect, bring the cutouts into Photoshop or Figma to composite front and back shots.

Does this work for every type of garment?

Structured pieces — jackets, blazers, shirts, dresses, trousers — come out great. Very thin fabrics like chiffon might need a quick touch-up, but for most of your catalog this handles it end to end.

We shoot flat-lay instead of on a mannequin. Does that work?

Yes. Upload a flat-lay photo and you'll get a clean cutout. The ghost mannequin blending step only applies when you have front/back pairs.

The boring part of ghost mannequin photography — handled in seconds

The ghost mannequin workflow has two steps: remove the background, then composite front and back shots in your editor. PixMiller handles the first step — the tedious one. Upload your garment photo (on a mannequin, flat lay, or hanger) and get a clean cutout on white or transparent background. Then drop it into Photoshop or Figma for the final composite. What used to take 15 minutes of masking now takes 5 seconds.
