Train station in Harry Styles’ hometown; Nathan Stirk\/Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Even casual Harry Styles<\/strong> fans probably know that before he found fame with One Direction,<\/strong> he used to work in a bakery. Well, now he’s back — sort of.<\/p>\n

A wax figure of Harry has been installed at W. Mandeville Baker in Holmes Chapel, Cheshire, before it travels to its permanent home at Madame Tussauds in Blackpool, England on August 3.\u00a0 It features<\/a> Harry wearing red trousers, an orange lam\u00e9 shirt and orange feather boa, and a pearl necklace.<\/p>\n

The bakery’s owner and Harry’s former boss, Simon Wakefield<\/strong>, told Manchester World<\/em>,<\/a> “It’s really good that he’s back – it’s lovely to see. It just looks so realistic. You just expect him to move or blink or do something because it looks quite surreal.”<\/p>\n

Tourists have enjoyed taking selfies with the figure at the bakery, since it’s a stop on the Harry Styles-themed tours that have been running in the village for a year.\u00a0 Some 5,000 visitors have come to see the bakery, as well as Harry’s childhood home, his favorite Chinese restaurant and the place where he had his first kiss.<\/p>\n

Wakefield told the Warrington Guardian<\/em><\/a>, “It\u2019s an incredible sculpture \u2013 it\u2019s hard to believe it\u2019s not him. He\u2019s great for business, and a fantastic asset for Holmes Chapel.”<\/p>\n
