Faking it!

How to fake a smaller waist?

We would all like to have that perfect hour glass figure but alas we don’t all have the means to afford a personal trainer or private chef to help achieve it. However all is not lost, with some simple wardrobe tricks you can create the illusion of a waist with minimum effort.

Block panels

Strategically placed blocks of colour are great for creating a slimmer waistline. Look for darker colours to the sides which draw the eye in.

The wrap dress

The wrap dress is by far the most flattering dress style for most body shapes. Choose one with adjustable ties that will cinch you in creating a defined waist.

A line skirts

The fullness of an A line skirt emphasises the waist, whilst skimming the hips and tummy area.

Other fabulous fakes for a smaller waist include diagonal stripes that point inwards and high waisted jeans or skirts that hug the smallest part of the body. Remember no one is perfect, everyone has something about themselves they would love to change and with a few carefully selected pieces in your wardrobe anything is possible.
