The face shape illusion as an example of the Lee and Freire (1999) effect. Moving the internal features further apart (left image) elongates the face and moving them closer compresses them (right image). According to Lee and Freire, inverting the faces reduces the effect. Therefore, if our subject has naturally compressed features (centre image), his face will look “fatter” when upright.
