Stiff and unnatural is all the rage in this Girlys Magazine Issue 10 editorial. Photographer Tony von Thelen shoots this plastic fantastic pictorial with a host of different locations.
Samantha Sasso excels at being inanimate while going about the day of a busy mannequin woman. She wears short frizzy wigs in either black of blonde and her lips are painted a glossy black in some of the pictures.
All the clothing in this Girlys Magazine Issue 10 fashion shoot is very 60s mod-inspired. Everything is in either black or white and the only color comes from the background. A number of the outfits use patterns to create visual interest on the clothing or on the accessories.
