EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases two exquisite mannequins from the renowned "Rosa manichini artistici-Milano" company. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, these silhouette mannequins are made of washable pink Tenax, a material that exudes elegance and sophistication. Designed specifically for displaying silk and velvet stoles in shallow shop windows, each mannequin is equipped with two pairs of arms, allowing for versatile styling options. The graceful poses and delicate features of these figures make them perfect ambassadors for the world of fashion. Captured in Italy around 1940 by photographers Mario Crimella and Mario Camuzzi, this photograph not only celebrates the artistry behind these mannequins but also serves as a testament to the rich history of Italian craftsmanship. The composition highlights every intricate detail - from the carefully arranged hairdos to the impeccable hairstyles - emphasizing their role as instruments in showcasing textile creations. These mannequins embody both functionality and beauty, seamlessly blending into any high-end boutique or fashionable setting. While we may not know much about the specific commercial use or context surrounding this image, it is undeniable that it captures an era where style was revered and fashion was elevated to an art form. This print invites us to appreciate not only the skillful craftsmanship behind these mannequins but also their contribution to shaping our perception of clothing and design throughout history.
