輕博客Tumblr最近有一組十分另類的照片火了。在這組照片中，一個男人穿著和身旁模特一模一樣的衣服，擺著和模特相同的姿勢。

來自溫哥華的史蒂夫·貝內加斯今年30歲，四年前開始“模仿假人”的奇特行動，目前已經積累了大量的此類型照片。

在他的Tumblr賬號他將這組照片命名為“Gap模特項目”，在這些照片中他試穿了各種最新潮的服飾，有桃色的連帽衫、格子花呢上衣以及深色牛仔褲。
Mrs Venegas photographed him next to an identically-clad mannequin with an expressionless look on his face. The one-off stunt quickly turned into an ongoing tradition for the couple, and now they make regular trips to Gap.
貝內加斯先生穿著和模特一樣的衣服，臉上擺出呆呆的表情，他的夫人拍下了他和模特的合照。這一行為本是一次臨時起意，但后來它變成了這對夫婦一直堅持的傳統，現在他們會定期去Gap服裝店逛逛。

當時是2009年，他正和妻子勞倫逛街，突然他就決定開玩笑模仿服裝模特的服飾和動作。
