My Only Man, Helen Merrill & Piero Umiliani (1962) Smooth and sultry, from the 1962 Italian drama Smog. Umiliani wrote many scores for spaghetti westerns and sexploitation films, but was best remembered as the composer of Mah Nà Mah Nà.
Helen Merrill (born Jelena Ana Milcetic) was a jazz vocalist who recorded in the bebop era of the late 50s / early 60s. She traveled abroad for some years before returning to the U.S. in the 1970s.

The Tanzmasken of Lavinia Schulz and Walter Holdt (ca. 1924)
Schulz and Holdt made these costumes for dancing; they performed under the name Die Maskentänzer (The Mask Dancers). The outfits are more sculpture than clothing, and they entirely swallow up the wearer. Some suggest a mongrel collision of characters — a buggy-eyed insect meets a jester meets a bearded tomato — and others allude to zippy motion, with eyeballs cartoonishly pulling off the face. Wires poke out and wooden blocks dangle, a bridge seesaws from shoulder to shoulder. Many of the geometric silhouettes defy anatomy; hands, feet, and heads are all boxed in, with no apparent exit.
The story doesn’t stop there. Schulz and Holdt were insane.
