When this got posted a few months back someone measured everything. It's just 3 photos cut out and pasted side by side. This is a post of a post, they used the image front Twitter as well.

The point is that regardless of how the stripes make her look, it's 3 photos with slightly different poses and scaling. It's an imperfect comparison crammed in a twitter post.

Yeah, and I just posted the link to the last time we has this discussion, where I edited the pic to be three exact copies of the same image and eliminated the differences, making it a fair comparison.
