Emma Watson’s dress divides fans with its gravity-defying style.

Emma Watson definitely got everyone’s attention when she posted a photo of her wearing a gravity-defying dress that left fans questioning how it was staying up.

In the 33-year-old actress’ Instagram post, the star was wearing a strapless pale blue dress that looked more like an upside down umbrella before it’s opened. Many of the comments from fans had some fun connecting the “floating” dress to spells her character Hermione Granger in the “Harry Potter” franchise would use.

“This dress is defying physics,” one person wrote.

Another wrote, “the dress looks like it’s floating. I’m trying to understand.”

While another wrote in the comments section, “What in the wingardium leviosa is that dress,” a reference to a spell in “Harry Potter” to make objects levitate.

“I’m all for sustainable fashion but ma’am are you wearing an upside down umbrella?” one person wrote. While another joked, “This is the most hogwarty dress ever.”

And others were just happy to see they weren’t the only ones confused about the structure of the dress, Page Six noted.

“I’m so happy I’m not the only one who thought the dress is defying gravity,” one wrote.

Another wrote, “After reading through comments I feel less bad about how long I had to stare at her dress to figure out what was happening.”

Another shared a joke from the “Harry Potter” franchise, “This is what happens when you say LeviOsa instead of Leviosa.”

A third joked, “I think someone forgot to take the hangers out of her dress before she put it on,” and “Emma be lookin like a closed umbrella.”

However, others seemed less amused and took the time out to describe how the dress worked.

“The dress has pieces in it that make it stand up,” one wrote. “If you zoom in on the image you can see that it’s just the way the dress was fashioned.”

Another added, “People, come on! The dress is not ‘hanging from her ears’ or ‘Photoshopped,’ the dress is designed to have ‘bones,’ it’s just couture. Never seen the Met Gala and its over the top gowns?”
