8 Ways to Look Thinner Instantly
Good Posture!
Hold your head up high and your shoulders back! Walk into every SINGLE room with great posture! This is absolutely the easiest tip for ways to look thinner instantly.
Monochromatic.
This look works with any head to toe single color, not only black! When you have a color break on your body, your eye is instantly drawn to that area. If there is no break in color, it helps slim you. For example, if you have wider hips, stay away from cropped jackets, which will draw the eye right to your hips if you have a different color top than your jacket and pants. Head to toe monochromatic looks create a leaner line on your body.
Well-tailored garments.
Not overly tight or oversized. People that don’t love their figure seem to want to “hide” behind oversized clothing. This actually makes you look larger. I have seen this over and over. If you wear clothing that fits your frame you actually look smaller. This goes both ways if you wear skin-tight clothing we can see every lump and bump so it’s best to wear garments that fit well and just graze the skin!
Draw the eye to your smallest area.
High waisted pants/skirts are great for this! Most of us are the smallest at our high waist if you get the eye to go to this area it will see you at your smallest point and you’ll look slimmer. There are several ways to do this. High waisted bottoms, belts, or rolling your sleeves to your elbow.
Properly fitted bra!
This is one of my soapboxes. If you are busty it is imperative to wear a well-supporting properly fitted bra! 80% of women aren’t wearing the correct bra size. Please, I am begging you go get a professional bra fitting!! Get those girls up high and tight!
Dark Colors.
Dark colors(like black) reflect light, therefore, you can’t see details! So, they just make you look leaner. It is SCIENCE!!
V-Necks
V-necks break up the bust line so there isn’t one large mass. You can create this illusion with a longer necklace as well!
Heels.
If you add height you look longer and leaner. A super-easy way to look thinner is to wear a shoe or bootie with a heel or wedge. It’s not rocket science and it really works.
