Reply To: What product do you use to achieve a smaller, more feminine waistline?

[Marg Produe]

Oh Holly,  The first thing that I thought was “ha ha, we just can’t eat”  but realistically that is not always possible.  So here’s my real answers/solutions (I chose Other) and hope they help somehow.  First having worked in the media/performing arts field I learned that performers are very concerned with shape and watch it carefully or they are out of work.  So they constantly monitor their shape and try not to let it go running away.  That said, they will sparingly use any of the above mentioned garments if necessary.  Sometimes my waist is not as well defined as I would like it to be so I will sometimes use  these runway tricks.  The first one is simply an elastic band made from 1 to 2 inch stretchy material (like an old cinch belt or sewing elastic.  This band is sewn together to be a few inches smaller than your waistline.  Then you just step into it and pull it up to the spot you want your waist to go in and then get dressed.  If it is done right you will have a pinched  (or at least an improved) look.  It takes a little planning to get it right but I have 3 of these in different sizes for body-con dresses.  Sooo, additionally if you really want to slay you can do a similar thing but use stretch cling wrap.  Yup, the plastic sheeting that you buy in a roll to wrap the leftovers in.  You just suck up your gut and wrap tightly.  It will be smooth under your tight clothes and you will look like you lost weight.  So now that you know how to be a super model please experiment carefully and don’t pass out and hurt yourself.  For most of my glam dressing I will just wear control top pantyhose or maybe a light panty girdle or smoother and the rest is working as a lumberjack and watching my weight each day.  Also for those that saw my swimsuit pics, please know that it was all me and that there were no special tricks or undergarments used there.  I wanted the pictures to be authentic so you can see in them that my waistline is not very well defined.  I’ve always just been a little person.  Happy Pride Month,  Marg
