Holly Willoughby squeezes into a Spanx bodysuit to look skinnier and stop her knickers showing.
Her corset habit was revealed by stylist Danielle Whiteman – one of the blonde’s three so-called “glitter kittens”who have looked after the presenter for years.
Holly, 40, also uses body tape to erase “lumps and bumps” – especially on her boobs when she goes bra-less.
Danielle said about dressing ITV’s This Morning host: “Red carpet looks always start with a strong foundation and on most occasions that includes an old faithful, the Spanx shorts.
“These are still very much a favourite in my styling kit and my current go-to is the Spanx Thinstincts 2.0 Mid-Thigh Short.

“They are super high waisted for that cinched-in effect, with extra tummy support and seamless finish, which is imperative because they can be cut into shape without fraying or curling.”
She added: “Full-length Spanx” known as the Spanx Bodysuit was “the way to go” when Spanx shorts “won’t cut it” and “you need to avoid the dreaded VPL” (visible panty line.)
Danielle said about tacking body tape to Holly: “Formally known as kinesiology tape and usually used by physiotherapists, this stuff is a stylist’s best friend.

“When wearing a bra is out of the question, body tape can be used to create the illusion.
|The four-way stretch is perfect for moulding to the body to avoid any lumps and bumps and can be used to tape anything down, up, apart, together. You name it, we’ve done it.”
Wig tape, zip lube, anti-static spray and a mobile steamer for creases is also among Danielle’s emergency beauty kit.
