Of course, black–or any dark color worn from head to toe–is always slimming in the right cut, but here we show you why America’s choice is especially flattering–and we tell you how to get your own perfect fit. Found: Star style that works. Steal this curvy celeb’s secrets for looking longer and leaner. TALLER AND THINNER Look long and lean by choosing a cut that is forgiving through the hips and a little tight at the hem. If you’re petite, showing more leg makes you look taller, so opt for a dress that’s knee length or shorter. FANCY FEET Heels add height, and a peep-toe shoe shows more of the foot, making the calf look slimmer and the leg appear longer. PHOTOGRAPHY: © JEFFREY MAYER/WIREIMAGE. BY CELIA SHATZMAN IT’S IN THE BAG America completes her outfit with an appropriately sized clutch and understated jewelry for a glam touch that doesn’t overwhelm her frame. ELEGANTLY WAISTED A dress with a defined waist is a great way to flatter an hourglass figure. Opt for a waist cut a bit on the high side (it makes your middle seem trimmer and minimizes bulges). Also, avoid cuts that have extra fabric through the middle, which adds bulk. BOLD SHOULDER A square-cut top elongates the neck, and thick straps allow for a supportive bra– a plus for curvy girls. your looks COPY IT
