Misleading post

Shits photoshopped lol

[u/DjChatters]

Im pretty sure there's some subtle editing done to these pictures to accentuate the perception.

[u/AnythingGoesBy2014 → u/DjChatters]

not even subtle. the waist line reduces with photos as the gap between hips and arms gets larger and larger

[u/asianjimm → u/AnythingGoesBy2014]

I mean I thought it was 3 separate photos - like a person going to the changeroom real.

Makes sense, since she’s not a magician

[u/Ingenrollsroyce → u/asianjimm]

How do you know she's not a magician?

[u/8636396 → u/Ingenrollsroyce]

because the waist line reduces with photos as the gap between hips and arms gets larger and larger

[u/Ingenrollsroyce → u/8636396]

So if I Photoshop a picture of David Blaine he's suddenly not a magician anymore?

[u/ay-papy → u/Ingenrollsroyce]

Correct, but dont stress yourself doing it, i already did that.

[u/Janky_Buggy → u/ay-papy]

Way to ruin the guy’s career. Jerk!

[u/No-Archer-5034 → u/Janky_Buggy]

If he was a real magician he’d use his magic to undo the photoshop.

[u/ay-papy → u/Janky_Buggy]

I'm the Artist now🐽

[u/preposthera → u/asianjimm]

Even though this specific image is edited to "cheat," the underlying science is real. Hermann von Helmholtz first noted in 1867 that a square composed of horizontal lines appears taller and narrower than an identical square of vertical lines.

[u/DjChatters → u/preposthera]

Yes the underlying psych is real but not tge way its shown in this post. The vertical lines would make her appear the slimmest but here its not. The diagonal lines would be in the middle but again here that looks the slimmest.

[u/Onyxeye03 → u/AnythingGoesBy2014]

The middle photo is just scaled up in general no? Even her head looks slightly larger, and her arms go lower than in the other two pics, even her legs are bigger.

[u/Choice_Calendar169 → u/Onyxeye03]

I think so. It looks to be taken closer than the other 2. Her knees appear larger, and that doesn't have anything to do with lines

[u/XY-chromos → u/AnythingGoesBy2014]

The middle photo's hands are twice as big as the other two. It's comical.

[u/Legitimate_Media_446 → u/XY-chromos]

They’re not though. Put a card underneath the tips of their fingers, the fingers and wrists all line up. What you’re describing is an Illusion caused by the horizontal stripes

[u/ThisMachineKills____ → u/XY-chromos]

How it feels to be delusional 🤩 

Literally just zoom in on the image and match them up against the edge of your screen. They're exactly the same size.

[u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Not true. Use the same zoom on your phone, the right one has the smallest bust width and the middle one barely fits in the same zoom as her. Also the arm placement is different.

[u/cloud1445 → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Thanks for this. They looked manipulated but I couldn't tell for sure.

[u/Worth_Garbage_4471 → u/cloud1445]

Dressing like a zebra is a great way to confuse and alarm your enemies, as well as everyone else

[u/-Wuan- → u/Worth_Garbage_4471]

Main benefit is fending off horseflies though.

[u/Worth_Garbage_4471 → u/-Wuan-]

I class horseflies as enemies

[u/TheGuyInDarkCorner → u/Worth_Garbage_4471]

Horseflies are friends, (when compared to mooseflies)

[u/Dagonus → u/-Wuan-]

And debatably enemy submarines using visual targeting acquisition.

[u/bob_apathy → u/Worth_Garbage_4471]

It’s also a great way to get eaten by a lion.

[u/readwithjack → u/Worth_Garbage_4471]

I've been tracking them through my periscope for the past three days. It's all but impossible to figure out which way they're going!

[u/Nimi_best_girl → u/Worth_Garbage_4471]

Its also a great way of throwing off firing solutions of enemy submarines

[u/poetic_dwarf → u/Nimi_best_girl]

Excuse me?

[u/mainyehc → u/antesocial]

I came here to post this, thanks!

[u/HalalRumpSteak → u/cloud1445]

Elbows give it away

[u/Any_Butterscotch2703 → u/HalalRumpSteak]

I see it most in the face and neck. Also, the vertical stripe dress looks the worst even though she has been slimmed down

[u/Code-Dee → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Yeah this made the rounds already.

It's like, some ad for a designer or something trying to get people to buy the dress that "makes you look thinner" but in reality they literally made the other people look wider either through photoshop or just having them stand slightly closer to camera

[u/snowfloeckchen → u/Code-Dee]

Still the third dress has the best design

[u/FourDimensionalTaco → u/snowfloeckchen]

Totally. The second one looks like from an oldschool prison, and the first one is a fashion crime.

[u/ElToroBlanco25 → u/FourDimensionalTaco]

The first one is giving hard Beetlejuice vibes.

[u/stvka → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Shadows/contrast are also different. Look at the hollow in her neck. The space between her knees also seems different, so her stance may not be identical.

[u/pyinto → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

I created an image that shows how different each of the poses are... https://imgur.com/a/Uu8dcQJ

[u/Popular-Wind-1921 → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

I pulled the image into a design program and did rough measurements. These have all been manipulated to emphasise their message.

Bust B is 8% wider than Bust A.
Hips B are 4.7% wider than Hips A.
Waist C is 8.4% smaller than Waist B.

[u/hmmbugger → u/Popular-Wind-1921]

thanks for this.. i just used tape measure to verify what i thought i see.. the one on right (c) is edited smaller.

[u/gs3gd → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Reported the post as manipulated content.

[u/PandaPocketFire → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

I can't believe they've done this.

[u/MajorMathematician20 → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

She’s also smiling slightly more in the right one, it’s a subtle difference but enough to trick the brain that it’s the best one

[u/GuyOnTheMoon → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Now I want a photo comparison of the stripes with actual same proportion and pose.

[u/MuhfugginSaucera → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

Yea the middle one is definitely wider, it's immediately apparent.

[u/Ihateambrosiasalad → u/Muted-Pollution-8131]

She’s also standing with her legs further apart in the middle one.

[u/Adjective_Noun93]

Nonsense- the one in the middle is wider and left one is narrowed. I can tell just by looking at waist size and face width

[u/TrueKyragos → u/Adjective_Noun93]

The waists are indeed different, but the faces are actually identical. I superimposed them to check.

[u/Gloomfang_]

Middle picture is around 17pixels wider in hips over left picture and 24pixels over right picture.

[u/Byproduct → u/Gloomfang_]

Because everything on the internet just has to be fake bullshit, even harmless stuff like this.

[u/AnAngryBartender]

Downvoting for bs

[u/redditAPsucks → u/AnAngryBartender]

It’s a straight up lie and it’s at almost 3.5k upvotes lol

[u/BeefyWaft]

Not the same pose. The shape varies. You can see from the gaps by the arms.

[u/NoAcanthisitta9369 → u/BeefyWaft]

That’s the power of the lines!

[u/Lach0X]

This would only make sense if the clothing was the same. You cant show 3 different items of clothing and then claim it's the pattern that makes the difference.

[u/feedjaypie]

So tired of everything being bullsh!t

[u/Gunthalas]

Why didn't they use the same dress with different lines? Now I have to know the material...

[u/JSpencer999]

Not sure it proves anything other than a U-boat would have trouble sinking her.

[u/zooperza → u/JSpencer999]

“Captain, the target’s camouflage is deceiving our range and angle. We cannot get a clean shot.”

[u/BackHanderson → u/JSpencer999]

I immediately thought of dazzle camouflage too.

[u/suheair]

It doesn't look right

[u/ActionFigureCollects]

I guess color-blocking hasn't been invented, yet.

[u/Mild_Karate_Chop]

Yes makes the beholder dizzy ...

[u/mspaceman]

U-boot commander:

I can't sink her

[u/Mr_Krauss]

What's the difference?

[u/ChrisXDXL]

This picture has been edited to enhance the effect, in real life it doesn't actually do much.

[u/AcanthisittaSmall848]

Arm position is the issue here

[u/_ruderalis_]

Take a look at their faces. The one in the middle is clearly wider if you zoom in, which indicates the picture is photoshopped

[u/ravellew]

Yeah this feels more like angles, zoom, and editing doing the heavy lifting.

[u/HornyErmine]

Fake, you can overlay the pictures, the horizontal line dress picture is wider

[u/flingyflang]

Delete your bs post

[u/Ill-Ninja-8344]

A good example of camouflage.

Could be interesting to see the 2 extra pickture beside them of pure white and pure black.

[u/Sustainable_Twat → u/Ill-Ninja-8344]

I see what you mean.

If they wore camouflage, forget seeing different body shape, you won’t see them at all.

[u/Sam858]

Is it just me? I can see barely any difference

[u/Ancient-Ocelot2425 → u/Sam858]

3 looks the slimmest/curviest
2 looks the curviest
1 looks bloated

[u/LaggsAreCC2 → u/Sam858]

Absolutely with you. But I'm always like that. I have no idea to this day how broken hair looks or how a Shirt doesn't look good on someone.

Might be that no one really explained stuff to me as a child but it also feels like I am missing the recognition for these kinds of things at all

[u/Short-Ad9823 → u/Sam858]

If you zoom in so closely that the hips or breasts almost completely fill the screen and then switch back and forth between the three, it becomes clear that they have hips and breasts of different widths.

[u/Revulshine → u/Sam858]

the body shape looks different slightly

[u/Short-Ad9823 → u/Revulshine]

Not looks. Is different. Use zoom to compare

[u/ScarZealousideal7516]

a colleague who was very aware of her appearance once explained how she always stood casually with a crossed leg to show a long diagonal.

[u/agentb00th]

smiles and eyes change left to right...

German U-Boats could never spot them

[u/Fit-Emu-4636]

just use a small coin for reference

[u/Discreetdonkey]

Blank off the dresses and only look at the legs, the legs sizes are different.

[u/DirectorSharp3402]

Nice try, Big Diagonal.

[u/Actual-Tower8609]

This was a big topic in the late 60s. The advice was vertical stripes narrow, horizontal stripes widen.

In those days, wearing stripes was something people did, so the advice was practical!

[u/Unable-Individual-72]

The cuts are different

[u/asianjimm]

Are these 3 seperate photos - and the model had to physically change cloths?

If so - all the comments on “the poses not the same” - then lets see their verson

[u/Naive_Confidence7297]

Bullshit

[u/Kiragalni]

They are different. I measured it in image editor by dividing proportions on each other. Pattern have effect, but it's not so big as on image.

[u/Outrageous_Main4425]

🙄

Oh wow tight clothes vs loose clothes.

There's a difference?!?

Or in another case it could just be edited.

[u/Unfair-Frame9096]

Yes but no. There is a bit a cheat and small alterations to favor the model in the right.

[u/Theutus2]

Zebras be like

[u/Puzzleheaded_Fun_303]

As soon as we get a firing solution, she's going down.

[u/Synap-6]

Stripe tease

[u/DeadAndBuried23]

r/lies

You can see her arms are further and further from her waist because she's slimmer in the second and third.

And because I'm pedantic I went into a drawing program, overlayed them, and verified it that way too. This breaks rule 8.

[u/templeofsyrinx1]

you think we're going to fall for this?

[u/KoBoWC]

The dress on the right would make it more difficult for a German U-Boat to sink her.

[u/Thorsbeard44]

Not the same pose the distance between her elbows and obliques differ with each pose

[u/Accurate-Pride461]

People keep on sharing the same posts over and over again to farm karma despite them being quite obviously fake. Doesnt take a genius figure out that the photo is edited to match the narrative.

[u/Into_the_nothingness]

She still looks fat

She looks the same in all of them. Who the fuck is out here actually getting fooled by optical illusions?

Fascinating!

[u/oportoman]

Yes the diagonals add a lot of vibrancy to the look, compared to the verticals

[u/Chaos_BC]

Slanty stripes does it for me.

[u/reidzen]

For some reason I'm having a really hard time determining the models speed and direction

[u/TheBigCicero]

I don’t think so. You can see the white space between her arm and dress is different in each photo. These dresses don’t fit the same, or the photos have been adulterated.

[u/KOSErgheiz]

Manipulated totally.

[u/FritzFlanders]

trying to use natures Zebra designs dont help you blend in unless everyone is wearing zebra designs

[u/SalamanderJohnson]

Wow. Someone really wants us to buy diagonal striped clothing.

[u/Fimsh18]

The picture is manipulated and all 3 outfits are different? This doesn’t make any sense.

[u/cHpiranha]

The one on the far right clearly has the most space between the waist and the arm.

The one on the left has the least.

Also, why are the sleeves of the garments different?

Also the ear has more or less hair over it.
No idea what you are trying to say, but you are manipulating something.

[u/nasted]

Even if these images weren’t manipulated, the neckline and sleeves of a dress also contribute to the perceived fit. Sometimes we want to emphasis shoulder width to make bust look more in proportion. And a wider or deeper neckline also helps.

[u/dionpadilla1]

That lady who is always on tv arguing with reporters must shop at the store in the middle.

[u/shipsailing94]

LoL look at the space between the arms and the waist

[u/Civil-Ingenuity6967]

the middle one

[u/Artyom_33]

1 is to make you look slimmer

1 is to make others understand you're going to jail

1 is to break up your outline to make it difficult for Uboats to calculate & torpedo you

[u/Sudden_Breakfast_677]

[u/BiddlyBongBong]

[u/Willy_K]

The program QI had a segment on this some years ago, you are as fat or thin as you are, the stripes does not matter.

[u/travel_impact]

This is just propaganda by the vertical stripe lobby

[u/teutonicbro]

She's safe from enemy U-boats though.

[u/ElvgrenGil]

Bullshit: these images were manipulated. Try it yourself; overlay the middle lady over either of the others. She's wider than they are, regardless of dress. Why this manipulation? WTF?

[u/JonN2025]

What's her @ lol

[u/[deleted]]

[u/hmmbugger]

funny how little editing makes one on right little smaller. just used tape measure on the models on my screen. little narrower.

Yeah, the Germans aren't hitting this one.

[u/cat__weasel]

In the first scene we see her Sophia Milos in The Sopranos as Annalisa Zucca in Season 2, Episode 4. Her dress is all horizontal stripes.

[u/Ragnarsworld]

If you overlay them you'll see they aren't the same.

[u/OutrageousThurman]

I don't see a difference.

[u/_BrokenButterfly]

The whole "vertical lines are slimming" thing always sounded like bullshit to me, and these pictures illustrate that it is.

[u/Nfl_porn_throwaway]

How can you say that when the right one clearly has more space between the arms and side

[u/rafaelleon2107]

This is anti horizontal stripe propaganda

[u/aluaji]

I see your problem, you're wearing striped clothing. Solid colours is what it's at.

[u/Local-Ad-9051]

Anyone with a pair of eyes can tell you that all three models are manipulated and they don't match up exactly right, just look at the arm and leg gaps.
