We all come in different shapes and sizes.  So it is practically inevitable that sometimes clothes don't perfectly fit.  I've found myself sewing darts to take in a shirt or blouse that is too loose on the body and yet fits everywhere else.  It sure is a time consuming way of getting that slimmer look!

Using a brooch to gather the excess fabric at the back is so much quicker and also decorative as well. Just make sure you pick a brooch that isn't too prickly when you lean back on a chair.

One more advantage - you can easily remove it if you fall off the diet wagon!
