Fix A Broken Zipper
#WMGHack: That blouse zipper is stuck when you’ve realised you have 10 minutes to go? Ask the hotel for a candle and run it up and down your zipper to ensure you have smooth landing. Not working? Wear it and have someone stitch it up for you. This will hld perfectly and all you need to do at the end of the night is cut out the threads!
Spilt Oil Or Hair Serum On Your Outfit
#WMGHack: Dust the entire area with talcum powder. Trust us. Let it sit for 10 minutes without disturbing it. Now dust it off. It will have soaked all the oil!

Peek-A-Boo
#WMGHack: Neckline and nosy aunties giving you trouble? Slap on some body tape if you have a cut out blouse or something that you are not comfortable wearing a bra in, if they don’t have cups. You can also use fashion tape to keep your neckline in place so it doesn’t move!
Instant Thick Hair
#WMGHack: Create the illusion of thicker, fuller hair by shading in any exposed areas of the scalp with a matte eyeshadow in a similar colour as your hair. It’s advisable to use a small fluffy brush to lightly dust the colour in, which allows you to control and build intensity as you wish.

High Heel Nightmares
#WMGHack: Picked up a heel that is too high for you? This hack is red carpet certified. Pick out a numbing spray and spray it all over your feet in case you don’t have a backup pair. This will get you through the night and book a foot massage for the next day!
Flaky Lips In Winter
#WMGHack: Is your lipstick peeling because of dry lips? Apply a thick layer of Nivea cold cream (blue tin one) and slowly brush your lips with a soft toothbrush. This will exfoliate your lips without irritating them!

Stains On Outfit
#WMGHack: Stained your outfit last minute? Keep a stain removing pen or liquid handy in your emergency kit and dab it on the stain. Remember dab, don’t rub. It will ruin the fabric. If it’s not working, ask your makeup artist to adjust your dupatta drape in a way that it cannot be seen!
Sweaty Feet
#WMGHack: Is sweat getting accumulated in your footwear causing you to slip? Dust your shoes with talcum powder so that it absorbs all the sweat and you are free to dance!

Jewellery Woes
#WMGHack: Layering your jewellery but nothing stays in place? Have your MUA stitch up the jewellery to your blouse. For chokers and smaller neck pieces that don't come up to the blouse, you can use lash glue or glue tags that can stick them to your skin. And your jewellery won't budge!
Veil Hacks
#WMGHack: Planning to wear an elaborate veil on your wedding day but it’s too windy out there? Add magnetic veil weights to keep your veil in place.
