This is such a wonderful set, taken ca 1890/1910, captured by Henri Oltramare. There are some simularities to Slavegirls in Chains.

Most probably a series by Henri Oltramare, active in Paris around the dates you mention. Very little is known of this photographer. The name could be a pseudonym.
I have identified elsewhere on the Web two more pictures from this series (slight variants of the ones above) which bear Henri Oltramare’s signature in the negative (HO 957 and HO 967).
