The Dress ensures attention against violence
This image gives the irritating dress a whole new meaning.
For days we discussed whether this dress is gold-white or blue-black. Now the funny discussion gets a moving spin. The South African Salvation Army is taking advantage of the interest in " The Dress " for a special campaign against domestic violence.
"Why is it so hard to see black and blue?"
That's the question on the poster that calls for donations. Below lies a young woman, dressed in the irritating dress. Her skin is covered in bruises and her face is badly damaged.

It says, " The only illusion is when you think it was their fault. One in six women will be victims of violence. Stop violence against women . "
This image reminds us that it is important to look carefully when we suspect that a person is suffering in our environment. Let's take the appeal to heart and keep this poster in our memory - this theme deserves at least as much attention as "The Dress" .
