What's neater than the photographs are the suits themselves -- they're handmade with extreme attention to color.

That's just freaky, I love it though! I love how the police came to investigate in the Old city suit photo, they look so freaked out.

Something similar to this is used as a sight gag in Be Kind Rewind out in the movies right now

Yeah, I agree with flatluigi—the suits are amazing. The photos? Kinda bland. This is so close to being really great.

I can "get" all of them (that is, resolve the full shapes of the people in the suits) except for this one. Where is the wearer's head and shoulders?

I think the pictures would be slightly more impressive if each shot was accompanied by a different-angled shot of the same person. As it is, many of the pictures register as a photograph of no person with a person-shaped distortion applied to them. I don't have any reason to believe that the photos were faked, but another picture from a different angle would make it clear to my subconscious what's going on, bringing things down to a more visceral level. (I'm kind of tired, so I don't know how much sense this makes.) And I agree with Mistersquid regarding the bookshelf picture. What happened to his head?

Where is the wearer's head and shoulders? Bent over, resting on the shelf. Very clever staging, that.

Bent over, resting on the shelf. Very clever staging, that. I was wondering the same thing as mistersquid and I totally see it now. It's like a magic eye poster

It's like a magic eye poster That's about the depth of it, but not a bad one liner.

prolly in my lifetime they'll have active camo clothes that function like this¹.
