I have been a big fan of makeovers, the entire process, the excitement and anticipation before the big reveal, I just love it, its the best kind of entertainment for me.
A makeover to me isn’t just about the new hairstyle and new clothes, it is about the confidence and personality transformation that comes with it. It is like the birth of a whole new person, so fascinating and exciting to watch.
So today I want to share one of my favourite ‘dress slimmer’ tricks, which I picked up from one of my fav Oprah (love her too) makeovers.
Here is the before and after of that makeover..

The long top, skims over the sides, creating a curtain like effect cutting the hips and legs into half hence creating an illusion of a slimmer frame.
Here is my take on the trick..
The long jacket makes her look slimmer and taller.

thanks rupa
Loved it Abhi and the trick totally works
where are you based at? I need to meet you as the first thing if you live in Delhi. Like I told you.. I may move there in a month or two..
Abhi I like the outfit , but not a huge fan of the jacket. The model is slim already so lost the plot in the before photo
almost everyone wants to look slimmer than they are…this was just for demonstration
though your comment has left my sister (the model) very very happy
thanks for stopping by
very smart concept.. pairing of red bandhani jacket with all white is superb
Thanks Shikha…i love bandhani too

Your self designed jacket is super impressive Abhi!! I loved all the styling and accessories used and yes must mention that your sister is gorgeous:-)

Stunning look. As a vertically challenged lady I try to make sure I’m flashing ankles and wrists (very slimming), wear heels that shoe some skin or in the same tone as the bottom. Love the idea of slimming tricks – great title!
Those jackets look stunning, they just make me look fat, I think you need to be tall to make then work
Fabulous ! thanks fso much for linking up at frugal fashion!
Oh my! This bandhini jacket is the love.
I love these fusion indian looks. Wow. the jacket is beautiful. Makes all the difference.
