Trompe-l'oeil

Trompe-l'œil is an art technique involving extremely realistic imagery in order to create the optical illusion that the depicted objects really exist, instead of being mere, two-dimensional paintings. The name is derived from French for "trick the eye"

In fashion it is my favorite thing. i get giddy when i see designers use it, which is often. LOVE IT!
