munchkin16 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Anyone else's dance studio have a weird collection of mirrors? One seems to make me look huge and one nice and skinny! It's like the hall of mirrors at a fair! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swanprincess Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Yes!!!! There's one mirror that's Really bad for making us look chubby, but also I've noticed with the other mirrors; if I stand close to it (ie at the front of the barre) I look short & stumpy but if I stand further back I look thinner and long legged (optical illusion lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munchkin16 Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 The skinny one of course! But because I'm short it also makes me taller and my legs longer. The optical illusion thing is true, far away from the mirror my legs seem to grow longer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxi4ballet Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Clothes shops deliberately have mirrors in their changing rooms that make you look slimmer, so you think they look great in their clothes and buy them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afab Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Gosh! How depressing as I always feel chubby in those mirrors! So the reality is even worse... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dramascientist Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Me too! However as a scientist I would say the problem with large mirrors is that they can be unstable so they warp a bit when they are fastened to a wall depending on how tightly they are attached so this is why you get different images in different places.
