It also says stop caring about skirt lengths right on the ad, which basically means almost everybody will be looking at the lengths.

Are they different lengths? The difference is so minute I wasn't sure.

I don't think so, it's just an ad constructed in a dumbass way. Good point, bad implementation.

Yeah it takes me a minute to spot such a minute difference.

And it appears that the one of the right is a slightly larger size than the one on the left. It looks like the waistband is bigger.

Yes, the left skirt is a tiny bit longer.

The one on the right is wider. It's fat shaming. Going to need Peter to explain why they are doing that though.

Yeah its trying to shame people for skirt lengths... as a way to sell women's clothing!? What whiplash.

If you can tell the difference between these two apple flavors you might be Satan! Buy Apples!

Also is it the lighting or is the skirt on the left a lighter color which makes the lighter fabric along the outside seem more pronounced causing an optical illusion that one is shorter and they are just the same skirt? Or is one actually shorter?

Someone said it's about some hemming thing, that's the only difference. Shading is defo lighting.
