Woman's flesh-coloured leggings cause embarrassing optical illusion - and it looks indecent
We've all had a few fashion fails in our time - especially those of us who grew up wearing skirts over trousers in the 90s.
But few could say their photo has been seen by millions of people because their fashion faux pas made it look like they were naked in public.
A photograph of a woman doing her shopping has drawn attention for all the wrong reasons and she probably regrets pulling on her chosen outfit.
The picture, showing a woman standing in the aisle of a supermarket with a young girl sitting in the trolley, appears normal from her waist up.
But once you glance downwards it seems as though she's gone to the shop without any trousers - or underwear.
Then, as your eyes reach her feet, it's obvious the woman hasn't actually indecently exposed herself, but is wearing a particularly unfortunate shade of flesh-coloured leggings which produce an embarrassing optical illusion.
She's probably wishing she never put them on.
The image is thought to be several years old, taken in the USA, and has done a few rounds of the internet.
But after it was posted to Facebook by Reannon Allison on October 7 it has gone viral all over again.
The cringeworthy photo has racked up more than 60,000 shares and 11,000 comments in just a few weeks.
And Reannon has pointed out something new in the photograph that people hadn't spotted because they were distracted by the nude optical illusion.
Comical. Amazing that Facebook did not ban the photo for violating FB's bogus perceived community standards!
I got nothing
I was at Walmart the other night and wondered about the brazen clothes some of the customers were wearing, and then I remembered it was Halloween.
Remember when this was the worst thing a woman could do when going out shopping:
“Curlers in your hair, shame on you!” to a stranger in the checkout line at the supermarket. Even though it was considered gauche to go out in public with rollers in your hair, many busy housewives simply tied a scarf around their head in an attempt to cover their rollers and went about their daily errands hoping that their hair would be dry in time for the evening.
Now anything goes, lol
Might be a little sexist here but I'd like to say that leggings should be a privilege that is earned
Leggings are comfortable and can even work for women like me who tend to be a little hefty.
What I mean is.....I wear a loose fitting tunic that comes down over my butt and nearly to my knees. It looks good enough for office work.
Black is always good choice
I used to prefer them until you posted that picture. That is how I would have looked when I was at 240. I am now 145 but leggings are not age appropriate for me outside of my house.
Isn't this against the TOS????
MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think it depends on what you wear with them
Trust me on this one.
Haha I have to comment on the choice of avatar at this time.
It looks like the fish is trying to get a better look.
"What did I just see?
I am glad it is a picture from behind if there must be a picture at all. I just know she had a serious camel toe going on and I am out of eye bleach.
Where can I order that? Bad Fish posted a photo of a large woman in animal print leggings and my eyes are scarred!
All I can say is:
I think I met her at Walmart.
Some years back I had to stand in line behind her or someone similar, but much broader in the beam. She was wearing spandex. There are some women who just should not wear spandex (darn, you took the barfing emoji away again and it expressed my gut feelings so well in this case) pun intended.
Let's protest until we get the puke emoji back!
WE WANT OUR PUKE!
WE WANT OUR PUKE!
WE WANT OUR PUKE!
Hey! I call no fair!

That Orca needs a butt implant.
Just because Kanye is a big dick doesn't mean he has one.
The whale wears it better.
