Everyone’s weight fluctuates. While not everyone can be a size 6 or 8, the clothes you wear can make you look thinner, or have the opposite affect, it’s your choice.

Find out what best flatters your figure and stick with it. A small weight gain will make your clothes feel tighter, so always have some “fat” clothes available for those occasions and don’t feel bad. Every woman experiences this. You can dress slimmer and look thinner with these simple tips.
Tips to Dress Slimmer
Choose darker solid colors such as black, navy blue and gray. Black rules!
Dress monochromatic, all in one color, top to bottom, no patterns.
If you want to wear patterns, go for smaller ones that overlap.
Avoid horizontal stripes. Look for thin vertical and and diagonal lines for a fluid look.
Select accessories to draw attention from trouble spots.
Wear clothes that fit. Not too baggy but not tight and clingy.
Avoid bulky sweaters and sweatshirts.
Always try on clothes. Different designers have different size charts.
Avoid pleats. Flat front pants and skirts are instant slimmers.
Low-rise pants that hit just below your navel will lengthen your torso.
For longer looking legs, skirts should fall right above the knee.
Forego the frills. Extra ruffles and material only add bulk.
If you have a large bust, invest in a good support bra.
Avoid shiny fabrics such as velour and satin.
High heels add height and shapes your legs. That’s why you always see runway models in heels.
Dark panty hose will make large legs appear thinner.
Stay away from patterned leggings.
Wear undergarment foundations such as control top pantyhose and shapers.
If you prefer wearing a sleeveless dress, cover your upper arms with a sheer, elegant shawl.
Choose open collar shirts and scoop necklines.
Avoid small handbags. Stick with a medium-sized bag in proportion to your body.
A dress with matching coat can hide bulges.
Match your belt and shoes to your skirt or pants to make your legs appear longer.
Don’t tuck your shirt in. Buy those that fall just below your waist, but aren’t too long.
V-neck shirts will make your torso appear longer.
You can still wear bright colors, just not on your problem areas.
Frilly clothes are a no-no and just add to your overall size.
Avoid too-tight pants that cling to your hips and thighs. Instead, try trousers with comfortable legs and wide cuffs.
For longer, thinner-looking legs, opt for an asymmetrical, tiered skirt.
If you’re a petite woman, wear the highest heel you’re comfortable with to add some height.
A thick waistband helps flatten the tummy.
