When heading out with friends on a cold winter night, it’s convenient not to wear a fitted outfit. We want to keep those ‘muffin tops’ and ‘love handles’ hidden (no matter how cute they sound!) Case in point: the bodycon dress. When styled right, it is the perfect tool to show off your gorgeous curves. Since we know that it’s a tricky piece to pull off, we decided to share a few tricks we’ve picked up along the way.
No, we’re not going to advise you to hit the gym or tell you to suck in your stomach. Use these easy fashion hacks – and rock a bodycon like a superstar!
1. Don’t follow the line
A bodycon demands seamless underwear! Panty-lines and cup shapes are distracting and can make you look tardy. Invest in a seamless waist-nipper or a full-body shapewear suit. And don’t forget to follow the colour code of your dress, so there are no surprises there.
Psst! Going for tight lingerie won’t look sexy. It’s very important to make sure you wear the right size and fit under a fitted outfit.
2. Embrace your dark side
The fact that darker colours make you appear slimmer is not a myth. A dark grey or a navy blue hue can help give you that confident stride. Ladies, the darker, the better!

3. Cuts that make the cut
When it comes to dresses that are fitted, the cut matters. For instance, a midi-dress on someone short might accentuate all the wrong places. A V-neck on a shorter torso can help give the illusion of an elongated neck.
4. Bring on the bling
When you know your #OOTD is on point but you are doubting its fitting, add accessories to your look. It’ll add that slight distraction your stylish get-up needs. Thigh high boots are a great option for the winter season. A statement neckpiece or even a large ring would work.
