why do clothes make you look thinner?

Why is it that when I wear certain outfits I look skinny but when I'm not wearing clothes or wearing certain outfits I feel/ look really fat?

Blacks and vertical stripes are the best at giving you a slimmer appearance. Avoid horizontal stripes as they make you appear wiiiiiiiiiiiider then normal.

A lot of it is also in your mind. Some nights I go to bed thinking my legs look fine and then I wake up and think they look huge! Now obviously nothing has changed overnight so I know it's just my sometimes negative body image.

Also, you have to know how to dress for your body type. Some things are slimming to a certain body type and some things aren't. I always dress to accentuate the positive.

The trouble is figuring out what attribute is positive!
