I’m curvy – I tried a stylist’s hack for looking slimmer in frumpy sweaters and I’m obsessed
A WOMAN tried a styling trick that completely upgraded her outfits and boosted her confidence.
Content creator Stefanie Maccabee tried a clothing hack that she saw a stylist promote, and she found it game-changing.

In a TikTok video, Stefanie said: “I just learned the best styling hack ever,” before blowing a chef’s kiss.
She was wearing a dark grey long-sleeve sweater that had a slightly chunky knitted design.
“I got this sweater from Target a couple of years ago. I never really grab for it because it’s kinda frumpy,” she explained.
As she said this, Stefanie pulled at the extra material of the boxy sweater and lifted her arms to show how it didn’t really give her any shape.
The hem also awkwardly landed in between her waist and her hips.
Then Stefanie prefaced her sweater transformation by sharing that she got advice from a stylist.
“I’ve been watching Orly Shani, she’s the DIY designer. She gives out styling tips.
“She said to flip your sweatshirts upside down and wear them upside down,” Stefanie added.
Looking confused and skeptical, she said: “Girl, your girl’s too curvy for that.”
Regardless, she tried the hack, first grabbing a striped V-neck sweater because she knew the wider neckline would fit over her waist.
When she wore the sweater upside down, it gave an entirely new look. The hemline served as the new neckline, and the extra fabric draped to form a cowl-like cut.
And the neckline, which now served as the hemline, cinched in around Stefanie’s waist. She was “obsessed” with the slimming look.

Posing confidently, Stefanie exclaimed: “Excuse me? The elevation of this style. What?”
Then she tested the hack on the first sweater since she wasn’t concerned about stretching out the neckline.
The once frumpy style transformed into “the slouchy sweater of [Stefanie’s] dreams.”
The wide hemline now became an off-the-shoulder neckline and the arms had a new dropped cut to them. In addition, the neckline perfectly cinched in at Stefanie’s waist rather than awkwardly hanging.
“I’m going to the coffee shop right now, and I’m feeling like a bad b***h, baby,” she exclaimed.
Some people were wary of the hack, saying it simply looked like Stefanie was wearing an upside-down sweater.
But the content creator responded to these comments, writing: “I think it’s cute. Wore it all day and loved it. The best part is I have the confidence to and other people’s opinions don’t really matter to me.”
Others complimented Stefanie, with one writing: “Honestly if you didn’t say they were upside down at the beginning, no one in the comments would even know. You look AMAZING.”
“I would NEVER think to do this. But my god, you look so freaking CUTE,” another person echoed.
