A male Fremen stillsuit from David Lynch's Sci-Fi epic Dune. On the desert planet of Arrakis, native tribes of indegnous people known as the Fremen used their specially-designed stillsuits to help them conserve water, which allowed them to survive in the harsh environment. This stillsuit was custom-made under the supervision of Academy Award-nominated costume designer Bob Ringwood. It consists of a unitard which has hand-affixed foam rubber accents and rubber tubular pieces before being hand-painted with several layers of Latex paint and fired in an oven to add a weathered desert effect. This suit features a zipper in the front chest area and is presented on a full-body and display base. This suit is in fair overall condition with significant wear throughout, including discoloration, several rips on the chest, arms and legs and ageing on the foam sections.
