Have you ever wondered why designers don't go out of their way to make clothes that are flattering? Sure, we love a good trend. And new silhouettes, fabrications, and avant garde cuts are fun and cool, but sometimes (okay, most of the time), all we want to wear on a normal day at the office (or hanging out with friends or on a date) is a flattering, slimming, attractive, straightforward look.

So say hello to Nue by Shani. Designer Shani Grosz spent 18 months designing a collection of dresses that are bright, bold, and, above all, slimming. While she might not yet be a household name, her label is sold in more than 44 countries—and the Queen of Everything Oprah Winfrey even wore a Nue by Shani dress on the cover of O Magazine earlier this year.
