Remember the old optical illusion posters your brother probably had when you were younger? You had to look at them really closely and circles would start spinning or new shapes would appear? Well believe it or not optical illusions are the latest word in fashion?

If you've spent a decent amount of time on the Internet, you've probably developed a healthy skepticism – you shouldn't always believe what you see online, because it's fairly easy to falsify with Photoshop. These images, however, will turn your caution on its head – though all of these images look like they might be fake, each is 100% real!

This black and white outfit will play tricks on the eyes in the best way possible. Strategically placed stripes on this bodycon dress create the illusion of a tiny waist, regardless of actual size. Ankle strap heels draw attention to the smallest part of the leg and pointed toes create a long line. To complete the look we added a layered chain link necklace, a studded leather cuff, and crystal and stud spike clutch.
