paper doll

A paper cutout that resembles a rudimentary human figure. They are usually less detailed than paper children, often closer to stick figures.

Sometimes they are dress-up figures with separate clothes that are usually held onto the dolls by folding tabs. In Japanese these are called kisekae.
