A woman has left social media users baffled after sharing the secret to her incredibly "snatched" waist in her optical illusion dress. Now, as well all know, in life, not everything is what it seems, but this is typical doesn't have the effect of causing people to stop in their tracks and wonder what on Earth it is that they are seeing - something this dress definitely has the potential to do. Influencer Jem, who is better known by her social media handle @xojem_, shared the video of herself wearing the "Mind Of My Own Maxi Dress" from Fashion Nova on Instagram. Alongside a laughing emoji, she captioned the clip on her Instagram account: "This dress is taking snatched to another level." Watch the baffling optical illusion below:  [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/CJJkzMLp1rv/]] In the video, Jem pulls the belt around the dress to stitch her waist up to the point where it looks like it has virtually disappeared. Think of a human sand timer, if you will. Needless to say, Instagram users had a lot to say about the dress, with one joking alongside laughing emoji: "need that kind of magic in my life [sic]". <img class="wp-image-12632908" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/01/82797a8d-screen-shot-2021-01-14-at-13.46.25.png" alt="An Instagram comment." width="584" height="160" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / celestial_paradise]] A second added: "You scared me for a second there ngl [sic]." <img class="wp-image-12632909" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/01/fe51da95-screen-shot-2021-01-14-at-13.47.43.png" alt="An Instagram comment." width="576" height="166" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / ahnails_to]] A third wrote: "Omg I thought it was a filter!" <img class="wp-image-12632913" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/01/a9fde320-screen-shot-2021-01-14-at-13.54.52.png" alt="An Instagram comment." width="553" height="143" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / 707_kelli]] Whereas a fourth simply added: "OMG YOUR WAIST LITERALLY DISAPPEARED BEFORE MY EYES WTHHH [sic]." <img class="wp-image-12632915" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/01/fa2edd0c-screen-shot-2021-01-14-at-13.57.51.png" alt="An Instagram comment." width="577" height="168" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / maryliascott]] If this dress looks like the optical illusion that you need in your life, you're in luck, because it's still available for purchase on the <a title="www.fashionnova.com" href="https://www.fashionnova.com/products/mind-of-my-own-maxi-dress-brown-combo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Fashion Nova website </a>in sizes XS to 3X. At the time of writing, it is currently priced at $39.99. However, this far from the first figure-hugging dress that Jem, who is a brand ambassador for Fashion Nova, has showcased on her social media accounts.

But personally, I prefer the optical illusion dress - even if it's just for its novelty, jaw-dropping value.
