‘So basically, it’s all about the way it’s constructed, they are made from a really stretchy denim, which is really flattering on the body,’ he said.

‘But then it has this in-built shape technology, so almost like wearing spanx, and it gives you that perfect lift and the higher waist makes your waist look smaller.

‘The pockets are positioned in a way to make your bottom look extra perky and perfect. They’re quite a very soft, mouldable denim, so they are comfortable. ‘

If denim isn’t your cup of tea, Mr Galella said there are other simple ways to dress the weight away.

‘Pointed heels help elongate the legs so they do make your legs look longer. Nude shoes are definitely a great thing to wear,’ he said.

‘Nude shoes also elongate your legs, make your legs look longer. So you look at ladies on the red carpet, they often wear nude shoes because it elongates your legs.’

Mr Galella said clothing with pinstripes or vertigo lines ‘make you look taller and slimmer’.

‘Horizontal stripes obviously do the opposite so vertical stripes, vertical prints all very flattering,’ he said.

He suggested another way to take the focus away from the waist was wearing an open neckline or opting for big statement earrings. 

‘[It] takes the focus away from those areas that you might be concerned about,’ he said.

‘And if all else fails, spanx. You can get men’s spanx and ladies’ spanx.’
