The six classic principles of design are shape, line, color, balance, proportion and texture. Understand how they apply to clothes and develop a personal style that highlights your best features. Ignore them and risk looking out of sync or unbalanced.

Flattering Fashions uses current styles and “real people” to teach young men and women how to select clothes from sweatshirts to formal wear.

This information-packed program shows students:

• How the body’s shape or silhouette controls what others see.
• How to use the power of lines to emphasize height, conceal weight, and create illusions.
• How to use color to attract attention or minimize size.
• How to create pleasing proportions and avoid the clumsy “half and half” look.
• Keys to balanced dressing.
• How texture and sheen influence appearance.

Runtime: 22 minutes
