    Jean Patou is the correct answer because he is credited with creating the first sun lotion. The other options, Josephine Baker, Coco Chanel, and Helen Kane, are not associated with the invention of sun lotion. The statement "Sun lotions? In 1920? Are you crazy?" suggests disbelief or skepticism towards the idea of sun lotions being created in 1920, but it does not provide any information about the actual creator.
