The Problem: Back Fat

Rolls of flesh around the shoulder blades, often worsened by bra straps (a.k.a. back cleavage, double Bs).

The Solution
Shannon recommends a well-sized bra with smoothing panels in back. "Back fat is actually spillage from an improperly fitting bra," she says. Front-closure bras also help, adds Blakely. As for clothing, "Heavier fabrics smooth over problem areas," Glassman says.

Avoid
Thin fabrics like charmeuse or jersey.

"This hasn't been retouched! Her bra has a smoothing panel in back." —Adam
