Moiré effect laminates and methods for making the same

An absorbent article comprising:

• a topsheet forming a portion of a wearer-facing surface of the absorbent article;
• a backsheet film;
• an outer cover laminate joined to the backsheet film and forming a portion of a garment-facing surface of the absorbent article;
• an absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet film;
• the outer cover laminate comprising:
• a first nonwoven outer cover layer comprising a plurality of lower opacity zones positioned within a higher opacity zone, wherein the plurality of lower opacity zones form a first pattern;
• and
• a second nonwoven outer cover layer comprising a second pattern;
• wherein the first nonwoven outer cover layer is intermittently joined to the second nonwoven outer cover layer to form the outer cover laminate, wherein the outer cover laminate comprises a non-joined span of the first and second nonwoven outer cover layers having a dimension of at least about 20 mm, wherein a first portion of the second pattern is visible through at least some of the plurality of lower opacity zones when the first nonwoven outer cover layer, within the non-joined span, is in a first position relative to the second nonwoven outer cover layer, within the non-joined span, and wherein a second portion of the second pattern is visible through at least some of the plurality of lower opacity zones when the first nonwoven outer cover layer, within the non-joined span, is in a second position relative to the second nonwoven outer cover layer, within the non-joined span.
