Trend Alert
Denim with specific slimming properties—like Katya's Miraclebody jeans, which feature an inner power-mesh panel in the front waistband and spandex in the fabric—guarantees a sleek look. And the 32-inch inseam ensures that her 510 frame is covered, even in heels. "I look two sizes smaller than I usually do!" Katya says. Oprah also loves these jeans!
