Although I am not a fan of the fashion, it is indeed possible to create this effect in real life by shooting directly face on from a distance while maintaining orthogonal edges on the sheet. Like any form of forced perspective there are correct and incorrect ways to use it which is where the perceptual problem arises. For example if the image portrayed is particularly detailed/noisy, then it's ideal to distort it to lend to the fact that the edges are curled towards the viewer (a weaker version of how a label around a cylinder appears distorted.)
