1. Draw Attention From Trouble Spots
Create a diversion! For example, draw the eye away from wide hips by wearing a large, interesting necklace. You'll get lots of compliments and people will be checking out your accessories, not your figure.
2. Wear Vertical Stripes
The easiest way to create a leaner look? Vertical stripes! Find a skirt that puts stripes just where many of us need them most -- in the hips and thighs.
3. Dress Monochromatically and Wear Dark Colors Colors
You've heard that black is slimming -- because it is. And you'll look even more streamlined in all black. Too severe? Try an outfit in all brown or all gray for a similar effect.
4. Step in to Heels
Heels make your legs look great, plus they redistribute your weight over a new height. You'll look instantly slim, no matter what you're wearing
5. Go For a V-Neck Top
Not only is a plunging neckline sexy, it draws the eye to the center and can make your body seem narrower.
6. Wear Boot Cut Jeans
For a streamlined look, pants should be not too tight and not too loose. Trousers with some lycra will stretch and move with you instead of pulling and creating creases in the seat, hip, and thigh. A great choice: These stretch twill boot-cut pants.
7. Opt For Body-Lengthening Pieces of Clothing
Pile on lightweight vertical pieces (think long cardigans, scarves, necklaces) to build a body-lengthening look without the bulk.
8. Accentuate Your Waist
You wouldn’t think a voluminous tunic would make you look thinner, but it can be surprisingly flattering by defining your waist with a skinny belt. Remember to harness the power of slimming undergarments—they're the sneakiest look-trim trick of all.
