According to ancient Greek sculptors, this is the peak female body shape
Overview
This image is a candid paparazzi shot of actress Emma Roberts wearing a form-fitting black off-the-shoulder dress, standing outdoors while conversing with another woman. Roberts holds a clear glass bottle of yellow juice in her right hand, positioned exactly at the lower hem of her dress. The alignment of the bottle creates a convincing optical illusion that makes the bottle appear to be part of her body, giving the false impression that she has a full, rounded lower abdomen. The attached joke frames this accidental illusion as matching the ideal "peak female body shape" referenced by ancient Greek sculptors for their depictions of goddesses and ideal female figures, playfully contrasting this historical beauty standard with modern slim beauty norms.
