The most popular thread in the classic celebrities section of this site is the 'Classic Celebrity Fakes ~ Now with added rules' - this is not my thing, but there you are. A bit of imagination and a lot of squinting your eyes can take you along way!
However I suddenly realised that there must be a lot of interest in creating these so I have had a go, using Mamie Van Doren as the model. I have added the results here so that those who would like to do this can consider the techniques.

The tricks to success are similar to that for repairs, but I would suggest that you use two base pictures similar to the intended end result, this not only saves messing about but does a lot of the work for you .... just pasting the head on another body rarely results in a realistic fake
For this one I used multiple versions of the same image mirrored and twisted, so that everything in it is 'real' i.e. All bits are of Ms van Doren and in that respect its not 'fake' but of course she has never done any open leg shots .... that we know of. I posted the pic on the fake thread as well because it was a shame to waste it.
