25 Freaky Mannequin Inspirations

— April 14, 2009 — Fashion
Contorted models posing as mannequins and living dolls, although somewhat disturbing, are appearing frequently in high fashion editorials. Rigidly posed girls look awkward and unreal. Porcelain skin, distant gazes and odd expressions create an uneasy yet enticing effect.

This collection includes the best of fashion models turned into living dolls as well as a couple of eerie examples of abandoned dummies and life-like stuffed dogs as display accessories.

Let your freaky side explore this cluster of peculiarly positioned models and mannequin-inspired trends.
