1. Jiffy Travel Hand Steamer: This hand steamer is the perfect size and is easy to use. It takes out any last minute wrinkles whether it’s a cotton blouse or a chiffon gown.
2. Dr. Scholl’s Ball of Foot Cushions: My clients love having these in their heels for extra comfort and cushioning. They help make the long trip down the red carpet more bearable.
3. Topstick: Double-sided tape is always on hand after I get my clients dressed for a red carpet event. It works well to keep any wardrobe malfunctions from happening.
4. Silicone Nipple Covers: Fashion forms extreme silicone gel petals. I prefer these silicone gel nipple covers to wear with a backless dress or a garment made of thin fabric. They are much more realistic than the cloth ones.
5. Spanx: My favorite spanx to use with gowns is the hide and seek high-rise thong, which flattens out the stomach. It’s seamless so it doesn’t show through clothes and it comes up under the breasts so the band at the top is unnoticeable.
6. Commando Thongs & Boy Shorts: I love this seamless underwear. They are like a second skin that doesn’t show through the most delicate fabrics.
7. Furniture Polish: My grandmother taught me this trick. Use furniture polish to clean your patent leather shoes. They will stay shiny and dust will not stick to them.
8. Nu Bra: When you need an extra lift and you cannot wear a push up bra, try the nu bra. They look realistic and provide the illusion of having a fuller bust. These come in very handy.
