Full Monty

These remarkable and unconventional mannequins were sculpted by Pierre Imans--an early 20th century French mannequin manufacturer who utilized wax, real hair, glass eyes, and even makeup to make his mannequins as realistic as possible (some of the faces are still a bit stylized, however, making them off-putting to some people).

Imans is notable for creating the first mannequin of color (modeled after a combination of singer and activist Josephine Baker and a famous Erté painting titled "Queen of Sheba"), as well as creating a lesbian couple that would be displayed at an exhibit called "The Streets of Paris" in 1920.

it’s been two weeks and i can’t stop thinking about it.
