How Oprah Looks 15lbs Thinner-Without Dieting.
The Right Clothes Make You Look Thinner Instantly...
As we always tell our clients, a v-neck is a curvy gal’s best friend. The high neckline, in the dress to the left, fills in Oprah’s upper body -making her look round and top heavy. However, the v-neck on the right instantly breaks up the bubble shape and replaces it with a sexy silhouette.
Another slimming feature is the placement of the belt. Never wear a belt at your true waist (left photo). It visually slices your body in half, creating a clunky look. Instead, empire belts on dresses are always most flattering. As you can see on the dress to the right; an empire waist nips you in at the smallest part of your torso (just below the breastbone) and instantly eliminates girth through the middle.
We feel for Oprah and know what it is to struggle with looking good sporting a fuller figure. But many times our clothing is the real problem - not the scale!
With the Secrets of The Fashion Code any woman - at ANY size - can learn how to dress herself slim - and sexy!

Fashion models versus Size 14 American Woman

09/19/2018

Did you know the average American woman is a size 14 and 5’4” tall? Yes, you heard that right, size 14. So it’s no surprise the clothes we see on models never quite look the same on us regular sized gals...

Did Jennifer Lewis miss her limo and have to run to the Emmy’s? Surely there’s a more glamorous way to make a statement. I mean it’s a sweatshirt...on the red carpet- she could have at least bedazzled it. We’re going to have to take a knee for this outfit...

The winner of the worst fashion design goes to... The Leaning Tower of Pisa placement on yoga pants (far right). Which do you think is the biggest fashion fail?

These just weren't very well thought out.

Which LBD does Rebel Wilson rock? The dress on the right is of course the most flattering. Why? Because any woman who is not model thin looks best in a V-neck; it creates a flattering hourglass figure, vs. a boxy, blocky shape (left photo). Also, wearing clothing that is too tight (left photo) grabs areas you’re trying to hide and actually makes you look heavier, instead slim and sleek (right photo). Finally, if your knees aren’t you best asset, bring dress lengths down to the mid knee- it still gives you a sexy look, while camouflaging a problem area. Rebel shows us that women in Hollywood (and everywhere!) can look sexy at any shape or size if they simply know the secrets of dressing slim.

Mary Kate looks like an athletic monk in this oversized outfit. The touted “ugly grandpa shoes” that are supposedly “in” this season don’t do anything for her petite frame- and at $600 a pair they’re a downright travesty. You may love your Grandpa, but do you really want to dress like him? She’d look miles more stylish (and taller!) in a short jacket, that doesn’t swamp her figure and make her look like she’s melting into the ground. As for those shoes? Less is more; a small, sleek pair of tennies would elevate her look from short and clunky to long and lean...which is especially important for small, petite figures...

Glad to see high end fashion has a sense of humor. Can’t imagine anyone could take these Crocs (or any Crocs) seriously... My favorite is the “Washing Machine” look. I get the same effect when I put towels in with skirts and I forget the fabric softener....

The joke's on us - literally - as designers put their tongues firmly in cheek.
