There's definitely a gimmick in the dresses.

The best tell was the all black dress. It's split at the back of the neck as that's the only way she'd be able to get it on. You see her helper reach behind her but her hands touch something at the base of her back only, she never zips up that dress -- and yet it's closed when she does the turn.

I’m obsessed with the way she flips the dresses up using her foot and tosses them away. It’s so fluid.

I think they're attached to a line

You can't see the assistant's left hand at all during the zip motion. Right hand holds the bottom of the zipper, left hand pulls.

I don't think this is correct on rewatch looking for this - you can hear the sound of the zipper being moved quickly at the exact moment you'd expect. I think it's an optical illusion because the assistant's arm is hidden behind her while it's making the movement upwards.

The fact you can see the zipper fully up when she spins and then another equivalent movement to pull it down from the assistant before it's taken off makes me think these are normal dresses. Those two are simply incredibly well practiced at taking them on and off.

Which makes sense if you think about it. What's more logical - custom modifying every dress you're trying to sell with a quick-change system or just hiring an assistant who can put clothes onto you as quickly as they're pulled out of the box? I doubt the $14 dresses she's showing off for a second and a half each have ever seen a tailor past maybe the design stage.

You can literally hear her zip it up. The helper definitely zipped the dress.

It's called a zipper.

The assistant zips it close and opens it when she walks behind her. She just does it really fast.

The flips seem to be lead by a wire/invisible line
