Anyone who has seen “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” knows that Emma Watson is a master of levitation. But it’s possible that not even Hermione Granger could solve the mystery of Watson’s floating dress.
Since Monday, the internet has been losing its collective mind over a new photo of the 33-year-old actor modeling a light-blue frock that appears to be magically suspended in the air. Watson shared the image on Instagram to promote Renais, the French-inspired gin brand she recently launched with her brother.
Funniest Reactions To Emma Watson's Gravity Defying Loewe Dress
In the picture, the “Harry Potter” and “Little Women” star smiles alongside her brother, Alex Watson, while wearing the dress, which seems to defy gravity at three jagged points along the neckline.
In a new interview, Emma Watson opened up about her decision to step away from acting after ‘Little Women’ — and whether she’ll return to the screen.

“What in the wingardium leviosa is that dress, ” one person wrote, referencing the levitation spell Watson’s Hermione uses to make a feather fly in the first “Harry Potter” film.
Plenty offered theories as to what kind of fashionable sorcery was creating the optical illusion. Some wondered if perhaps the fabric was somehow hanging from Watson’s ears, while others speculated that a special kind of wiring was holding the garment in place.
“After reading through comments I feel less bad about how long I had to stare at her dress to figure out what was happening, ” one person commented.

According to an analysis by Kelsey Stewart for the Zoe Report fashion blog, the Loewe dress features “draped fabric” and “structured wiring underneath the bodice, which creates the style’s floating effect.”
‘Robbie, if I ever get to be so kind as you were to me on a film set ... I’ll do it in your name and memory, ’ Emma Watson wrote to the late Coltrane.
Watson has been unusually active on social media in recent weeks while plugging her latest business venture. In an interview last month with the Financial Times, the “Beauty and the Beast” actor discussed the making of Renais and explained why she had stepped away from acting in recent years.

“I wasn’t very happy, if I’m being honest, ” she said. “I felt a bit caged. The thing I found really hard was that I had to go out and sell something that I really didn’t have very much control over.”
“I love what I do, ” she said. “It’s finding a way to do it where I don’t have to fracture myself into different faces and people. And I just don’t want to switch into robot mode anymore. Does that make sense?”

Emma Watson Confuses Fans With Seriously Gravity Defying Dress
One particular outfit, however, has left her adoring fans beyond puzzled as they desperately try to make sense of the optical illusion dress.
In one of the photos - and there were a few - the star can be seen wearing a totally strapless pale blue dress with some pretty eye-grabbing asymmetric detailing along the bust of the garment.
The bottom half of the dress - from designer Loewe’s spring 2023 collection - seems to just effortlessly drape down while, at the same time, the top part totally defies the laws of physics as it juts right up into the air.

Emma Watson Dons Dress Made Of This
One Instagram user informed: The dress has pieces in it that make it stand up. If you zoom in on the image you can see that it's just the way the dress was fashioned.
A less patient fashionista hit out: People, come on! The dress is not 'hanging from her ears' or 'Photoshopped', the dress is designed to have 'bones', it’s just couture. Never seen the Met Gala and its over the top gowns?
A final Instagram user pointed out: There are wire points going upward. If you zoom in you can see wear the dress is formed to her chest and then points dart away from the body. You can tell because the tips are all sewn for wiring placement.
