The only thing throwing me off about the album cover, be it fake or not, is the left arm. It looks almost pixelated and much too long for the body, why would this have been done? In my opinion it looks out of place.

I know it is meant to be psychedelic but the arm is a bit OTT, if it was intentional.

While I agree it looks a little wierd, it's actually the same length as the right arm. If you measure each arm along its length on the image, they come out within one or two pixels of each other.

The model, be it Alizée or somebody else, has her right arm twisted in to a backhand, while the left arm is in a wide open forward position. That makes the joint appear to move visually, and makes them appear unlike each other, but it's just an optical illusion.

Whatever, y'all. Looks fine to me. It does look like the focus is set more on her right arm and it actually has shadow behind it. It's hard to tell where exactly that sheet she is standing on and in front of is going, but you don't see any shadow on the left side of her body. She is, however, turning her left side slightly toward us and of course things like shadows and backgrounds can be deleted with Photoshop.
I do kind of hope this is going to be the real album art, in spite of what Amina says, 'cause it's really cool. I just have to know what that animal coming from the dress is supposed to be (and why the pink circle drawn on the image).

It does look to me like the dress is becoming an animal that is trying to run away. I don't know, maybe all it signifies is something psychedelic!! I hope she isn't smokin' that wacky tabacky. (just kidding)
If you look at it closely (at the album art pic)...Alizee is holding the triangular piece which looks like an animal with jaws open.... > The other dress is a person stooping and facing completely to the right.....> the jaws of the animal corset-thingy is clamping down on what would be the head of the person in the second dress (which is slightly different in color and fabric). You have to look as I just told you. It's right there !!

I'm really trying, man! You'll have to illustrate, 'cause I ain't seeing it.

I think it's a case of what one sees in the clouds or an inkblot. Once you've convinced yourself that's what you're seeing, that's the only way you see it. I don't see it either, but I'm sure he does.

If it is a genuine photo, I don't even think Alizée is actually wearing the skirt portion of the dress. I think it's something that is free standing that Alizée would have just been wearing the top/corsette portion of (and a different bottom, of course) and just stood behind for the photo. No second person IMO. That way they could have arranged that portion to look exactly how they wanted and Alizée would never have to actually wear it. Again, this is assuming the photo is genuine, which I'm still not sure is the case.

No...no...no...no...no... All wrong...and I am not seeing things...you just have to look. It is purposely abstract....

The animal jaws figure is the top part of her dress ripped away so that the white part you see is that which remains...as if to say, I'm ripping away from the image you made me into (Mylene) . It then attacks the person sitting in the other dress.

The top of Alizee's dress, where it is white, was ripped away...and that is what she is holding in her right hand (animal jaws figure). And if you imagine her putting the ripped piece back on her chest(the animal jaws figure)...you can clearly visualize that there are two separate dresses/people. It is purposely constructed so that one is obscuring the other.

Can you see it now....anyone?!?
