Plus-size model/fashion editor Lauren Chan recently revealed some posing and fashion tips on how to disguise your tummy if you’re self-conscious in swimwear – and Talent Management thought they were so great that we had to share them with our models!

The stunningly curvaceous model, who has been signed with a plus-size modelling agency since May this year, told Fashionista: “There are so many tricks that can be conjured up to hide a tummy during bathing suit season. I’m sure the list is endless. I always have a great sheer or crochet mini-dress cover-up, or an over-sized scarf to tie around my upper waist like a skirt. Now that high-waisted bikinis are on trend, you could rock that look too!”

Continuing, she divulged her number one tip for modelling swimwear: “Realise that the way the curves of your body flow is going to make or break the photo–so accentuate them!”

As if that wasn’t enough advice to be going on, Chan also described her most flattering pose: “My go-to flattering pose is shot straight on with my feet crossed, and one shoulder slightly higher than the other. I let my arms fall naturally (or put one hand on my waist). I also lean forward a smidgen if I want to angle my tummy away from the camera. It’s done with ease while giving my body an hourglass shape.”

Judging by Chan’s modelling portfolio, she certainly knows her stuff! So, we’ve said it before and we’ll say it again- take note and get practicing in front of the camera ladies.
