I’m a style pro – the hidden ‘bum padding Kate Middleton uses so her waist looks smaller’ & it’s an optical illusion
A ROYAL style expert has claimed Kate Middleton has used “bum padding” to “make her waist look smaller” in dresses.
Miranda Holder uploaded a video shared the Princess of Wales’ clever style hack, which was reportedly incorporated into her jaw-dropping wedding dress.

In a clip which has racked up over 1,900 likes, the fashion expert said: “The hidden padding in Kate’s wedding dress to make her waist look even smaller.
“Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen is no stranger to making women’s figures look even more incredible than they already are.
“Let’s face it, Kate doesn’t really need any help.
“However, Sarah really understands just how important proportion and balance is in any outfit to make the most of the beautiful figure that is wearing it.
“So with this in mind, Sarah added extra padding around the hips and bottom area which only made Kate’s tiny waist look even tinier in that stunning dress.”
Miranda, who posts under @themirandaholder, added of Kate’s hack: “It’s all about adding volume to certain areas to make other areas of the body look smaller.”
We’ve seen Kate wear a number of showstopping ball gowns at red carpets events since her 2011 wedding to Prince William.
Kate’s wedding dressmaker and designs were kept secret until the big day, and only when the royal bride stepped out of the car was the designer revealed.
The Daily Mail later reported Sarah explaining the effort that went into designing the dress, saying: “We wanted to look to the past, yet look to the future as well.
“There were a lot of references to Victorian corsetry, the padded hip, the tiny cinched-in waist, and also to the arts and crafts movement with all of the hand-work on the lace of the dress and also the bustle inside to create the shape of the back of the dress.”
The back of the dress had 58 button of gazar, and in total the skirt, underskirt and bridal train measured a staggering 8ft8ins long.
Workers from The Royal School of Needlework worked on the dress and it was reported they were initially told it was for a TV costume drama.
The dress is estimated to have cost £250,000, making it one of the most expensive dresses ever made.
