# Pairing Mannequins & Models Mannequins from Katarzyna Jarczykowska is Creepy Yet Cool By Michael Hines | Published 2010-07-03 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mannequins-from-katarzyna-jarczykowska References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/MANNEQUINS/562919) & [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/jarczykowska) ‘Mannequins’ from Katarzyna Jarczykowska may be creepy or incredibly creative depending on how you choose to look at it. This small photoshoot features a mannequin and a model that look strikingly similiar. I like ‘Mannequins’ from Katarzyna Jarczykowska because it introduces a [human element](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/primark-sophie) into the traditionally creepy [mannequin photoshoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seated-mannequin). Sometimes the human is hard to spot, though, which is what makes these photos so much fun.
