Abide by the following rules when you hit the high street and we'll make a leggy, supermodel of you yet.
Avoid three-quarter length trousers because they make legs look shorter. Trousers should be full length, falling to the bottom of the heel
Don't wear trousers with turn-ups or wide legs, instead opt for narrow, straight legs or bootcut trousers
Skirts and trousers with high waistbands make legs look longer too.
Create the illusion of height by wearing a top and bottom of the same colour, drawing the eye up and down.
Longer length jackets worn undone also give the illusion of height.
Avoid chunky, ribbed tops that widen rather than lengthen the body.
Wear heels.
If you have shoulders that would put an Olympic swimmer to shame, then try to balance out your body shape to give the illusion of a smaller frame.
Opt for bootleg trousers and fishtail skirts that widen at the bottom of the garment. It will balance out the shoulders.
Wrap-around tops are very flattering if you've got wide shoulders.
Avoid halter-necks which draw attention to shoulders.
Avoid delicate-looking tops, for example, ones with spaghetti straps.
Despite having average-sized boobs, there may be occasions when you want to give the illusion of a fuller bust.
Always wear a bra.
Wear high-necked tops or roll-necks to accentuate your boobs.
Opt for delicate tops with spaghetti straps.
Sleeveless, round-necked tops that show off your arms are great.
Wear tops in a lighter colour than your lower half.
As the proud owner of a fabulously, tiny waist, you must, of course, do everything you can to show it off!
Avoid covering your great asset with long, loose clothing.
Cropped tops draw attention to the waist.
Wear tops that end around the waist.
Don't cover the waist up by wearing high-waisted trousers.
If your tummy isn't a problem area, but isn't necessarily something you would want to draw attention to, use these rules when you go shopping:
Flat-fronted trousers and skirts are really flattering for a larger tummy. Try to avoid pleats and front zips - side and back zips are a much more flattering option.
Low-waisted trousers make stomachs look smaller.
Don't wear anything that's gathered at the waist.
Wear soft, forgiving fabrics that don't cling to the tummy.
Wrap-around tops create folds across the tummy that detract from any other rippling in that area.
Avoid belted jackets and coats. The belt will ride up and give the impression that you're pregnant.
While child-bearing hips are great for that earth-mother look, there will be times when you want to conceal your more voluptuous areas.
Don't wear dresses and skirts that cling or are bias-cut.
Avoid narrow-legged trousers and tapered, knee-length skirts.
Avoid belts that pull you in at the waist - you don't want to create an even greater contrast from waist to hip.
Opt for A-line skirts and bootleg trousers that balance out the hips and thighs.
Skirts or dresses with a frilled hem are a flattering choice.
Trousers with detail, such as side pockets, will make you look wider.
Wear slash-necked tops to broaden shoulders and balance out the hips and thighs.
Choose longer line, fitted jackets. Never wear box jackets which emphasise a pear shape.
Avoid cropped tops.
V-necked tops are great for drawing the eye away from the hip area.
Wearing the same colour on the top and bottom is very slimming.
If the answer to the question: "Does my bum look big in this?" is a resounding "yes!", then consider the following tips before hitting the high street.
Avoid wearing light colours on your lower half.
Avoid narrow-legged trousers.
Wear longer jackets that fall below the bottom and never wear jackets that end where your bum starts.
Wear jumpers around the waist over trousers to break up the expanse of bottom.
Opt for wide-bottomed trousers with no detail, such as pockets with pinstripes, on the bottom and avoid pleats.
