| Kim Kardashian wearing Alexander McQueen's "Optical Illusion dress" |
We all know that women prefer clothes which makes them look thin, emphasize their curves
and enhance their figure. Spanx pantyhose, Wonderbras… You name it! But
come on, no dress is really gonna take ten inches off your waist, or
make you look twenty pounds lighter than you really are… Would it? Well,
no ORDINARY dress would be able to do that!
But when designers discover
fabulous world of optical illusions, and then start playing with such
concepts, you’d be amazed what they could do to the female figure… only
sky is the limit!
Take the dress on the right for example – simply by adding a well-known optical illusion pattern to the waist, the designer Alexander McQueen suddenly makes any woman wearing his dress appear much thinner in waist than she really is. Not to mention how he successfully reversed the effect in the breasts region, accomplishing curvaceous, hourglass appearance!
Really?! Who Else Does This?
The next dress by Stella McCartney
is another extreme example of what optical illusions can do to a
woman’s body… Sure, it’s an easy task to emphasize Kim Kardashian’s
curves, but what if you’re not as curvaceous?
Using a similar concept that slimmed down Kim in the first image,
McCartney’s dress takes the illusion even further – By using a slightly
off-white color fabric on the bust, the “shadow effect” makes woman’s breasts appear much larger,
immediately putting them in the spotlight (something I’m sure most
gentlemen wouldn’t be eager to complain about). But that’s not the only
enhancement here!
Kate Winslet premiered Stella McCartney’s dress at the Venice Film
Festival, and it was so noticeably figure-altering that it was quickly
dubbed “The Optical Illusion Dress” by the press. You can immediately
recognize the black-fabric-on-the-sides trick, one that made Kate look
like a corset model from the 18th century. An hourglass figure so slim, that when compared to her mortal anatomy, it’s actually shocking…
So
remember, optical illusions aren’t just theoretical creations used by
artists. No, they are also quite practical when applied to real world
settings by fashion designers who want to please their clientele
by giving them an entirely new figure. Here are few more celebs wearing
Stella McCartney’s dresses. Has it worked for all of them? You be the
judge!
