How To Fake a Waist, According to Prada
Wear your waist trainer…out.
Prada’s version of the waist trainer is not meant to be hidden. Not only is it worn in plain view, it’s worn over your jacket in a contrasting color, immediately drawing attention to the waist for an instant illusion. And don’t worry about not being able to breathe — these corsets are meant to be loosely tied for a modern effect.
When it comes to prints, more is more!

Yes, light colors can be slimming.

The white part of the belt defines your waist while blending in with your dress, while the dark part gives you the illusion of a dainty little waist.
