Emma Watson has left her 72million Instagram followers in a tizzy with her latest post.
The Harry Potter star, 33, took to social media on Monday to plug her and her brother’s gin range, but all eyes were on Emma’s dress – which quite literally appeared to defy gravity.
The blue frock, which Emma revealed was by fashion house Loewe, appeared to float upwards towards the actor’s face, prompting many of her fans to wonder what on earth was going on.
‘This dress is defying physics,’ exclaimed one Instagrammer.
Another said: ‘The dress looks like it’s floating. I’m trying to understand,’ while someone else penned, ‘Can someone explain how this dress works?’
‘The way no one’s understanding that dress… guess we all are just muggles,’ another person chimed in.
The best comment of all, though, was: ‘The dress said wingardium leviosa.’
Back in March, actor Indya Moore wore the same dress in a different colour to one of the fashion house’s shows and photos from that day suggest it’s carefully placed wires that make the frock appear to jut upwards.
It’s been three months since Emma returned to social media, ending her long hiatus.
She explained at the time that she’s ‘stepped away from life’ before going into great detail about what she’s been up to these past couple of years.
From learning to surf to adopting a dog and even ripping off a fingernail, the A-lister gave fans a no holds barred peek into her life to mark her 33rd birthday.
Alongside a striking black and white image of herself, Emma wrote: ‘This is 33. Holy moly. Before 29 I hadn’t even heard of a Saturn Return as a concept.’
The Little Women star went on: ‘Let’s just say that now I am well acquainted. I stepped away from my life – I learned to surf (badly), I rode some horses (that went better), I did a lot of therapy (YESS therapy!).
‘I felt really sad and really pissed off about a lot of things. I learned more about love and being a woman.’
She concluded: ‘It took me three years but I have finally figured out a daily practice and can actually keep it for more than a few days in a row. I burned some things down. I eat green things now!
‘I got obsessed with making Squarespace websites. I directed my first commercial.
‘These pictures were actually taken on my birthday last year, but I wasn’t ready to come out of my Covid Cocoon. Today I feel [butterfly emoji].’
Glad to have you back, Emma!
