How To Photograph A Tie Waist Dress

1. Think About How You'll Wear It: In this case, I plan on layering my new trench dress with long sleeve t-shirts, so I made sure to make the arm holes very distinct. 

2. Neaten the Collar: Give the collar and lapel a little structure so they don't look sloppy. 

3. Watch For details: Make sure defining details, like the zipper on this dress, are visible. 

4. Nip The Waist: Slightly define the waist by tucking the sides of the dress in where the belt ties around the dress. 

5. Loosely Tie the Belt: There is no need to make a giant bow or to strangle the dress with it's belt. Just loosely drape the tie ends over each other. It will look less distracting and give the dress a more natural appearance.
