This is my series devoted to the real life models who became Rootstein mannequins. The mannequins are also dressed in attire that provides a little bit of fashion history.

The Rootstein female mannequins get all of the attention, often overshadowing the fabulous male mannequins they produced.

This is Drogo, pose code A15 from 10 Teens Series, circa 1986. The series featured four young adult models, Drogo , Camilo, Emma and Dawn. Drogo modeled and races dirt track motorcycles.

Rootstein mannequin, Drogo styled in Perry Ellis Portfolio suit, Express knit hoodie, Gucci necklace, Bluetooth headphones, Gucci crossbody camera bag, Perry Ellis belt, Gucci hightops and Rotary timepiece.

This is Casper, pose code PA10 from Partners Series, circa 1998. This series features young adults in a few sitting poses, with the majority being standing poses that had the option of holding clasped hands standing side by side, and when using multiples with the clasped hands, they formed a semi circle.

Casper Is styled in Aigner bucket hat, Burberry shirt, Bowery London t shirt, Michael Kors boxers, Levi’s shorts and Adidas tennis shoes.
