Pose Like a Red Carpet Pro

2013-10-02 in The Perfect Evening by admin

Some girls have all the luck when it comes to looking svelte in pics. And then there you get the rest of us: the ones who need to suck it in to look slightly slim. Luckily, there are a few tricks that can get you looking up to 5kgs lighter in photos on those nights out – and will make that glam new gown look even more sensational. You might recognise a few of these poses – this is how those super-sexy celebs look so slender in red carpet pics.

So pull up a full-length mirror, close the door and start practising these super-slimming poses.

Put your best foot forward: Facing the camera, turn sideways ever-so-slightly. Put one foot in front of the other – and aim your toe on your front foot to the camera and place your weight on your back foot.

Arms out: Hold your arms slightly away from your sides, or put one hand on your hip. This keeps upper arm flab from pressing against your body and appearing flabbier than what it actually is.

Posture, posture, posture: Like your mom always said, pull your shoulders back, your chest out and gently hold your tummy in – but don’t hold it in too much, or it will show and look unnatural.

Gorgeous jawline: To minimise the appearance of a double-chin, slightly stick your head out for a slimmer neck and jawline.

The ‘Look Away’: As the name says, look away from the camera, then turn towards it and smile just the moment the camera clicks. Your smile will appear fresh and natural.

Start practising with a few of your closest friends. It’ll be a laugh initially but the posing prac will pay off.
