"Hello. My name is Gabriela Garzon at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting in Miami, Florida. In this clip, I'm going to talk about how to wear slimming dresses. We all know that the darker we dress, the slimmer we're going to look, but again, there's no need to be boring with what it is that we're wearing or always wearing black, so when, of course, my example is a black dress, but what I want to point out here is that when the dress has a fabric that is flowy, it will always give you a feel that it's not clinging to the body and it's just flowing with your curves. No matter if you're skinny, or if you're just a little overweight. When you have a noted waist, it will also give the illusion that you have more of like a figure instead of like a square or rectangle type of figure. So it will give you the feeling that you look slimmer. Another nice way to go ahead and counter-act that is to wear things that have straight lines, all the way down. That's going to give you a feeling that you are slimmer because it's not breaking into different patterns. You should avoid, completely, just like very like big prints or so and just stay with things that are not clinging to the body, that are flowing and that they follow your natural curves. Once again, this is Gabbie at G.G. Image and Etiquette Consulting."
