This 'Stripes' photo set by Ilona Olkonen is short but sweet. In it, Olkonen captures a model wearing a striped dress doing yoga poses. It's a simple concept, but in practice the effect is mesmerizing.
The slight distortion of the stripes as the model moves and poses her body is somewhat hypnotic. Ilona Olkonen's set gives a clever perspective on the ancient art of yoga. Check out some other yoga innovations below.
Implications - Businesses that can create a visually stimulating product using something as simple and natural as the human body will appeal to a wide audience. Consumers will also be more likely to invest in a product with which they share a personal connection.
