As the Millionaire Matchmaker, Patti Stanger knows a thing or two about how to win the heart of a wealthy man.
And fans of her hit Bravo show know she is not one to mince her words when it comes to telling clients how they could change their weight, hair colour or behaviour to improve their dating prospects.
Now the relationship guru, 50, has revealed her style tips for women keen to secure that second date.
She explains why curly-haired women - with the exception of Andie McDowell - should always straighten their hair and why the Rachel Zoe boho look will never be a winner when it comes to bagging a man.
She told Today.com: 'Silky Asian hair has been in for the last 100 years, probably for the history of style. It signifies opulent wealth and sophistication.
'Men who are wealthy like straight hair, they like to run their hands through it, not get tangled in there like it does with curls. And honestly, very few women have perfect curls. Unless you’re Andie McDowell, the curls just look messy.'
She added, rather controversially, that red hair was a dating faux pas too - much to the anger of members of her own family.
'My cousin is a redhead and she almost kicked my *** for this,' she revealed. 'The only men who like redheads are Irish.
'I can’t get my millionaires to date a redhead - it has nothing to do with me. I can’t make my millionaires pick what I want; It’s not me; it’s the men. I’m just the distributor.'
When it comes to fashion, boho is a no-no, as Ms Stanger believes clothes should be fitted.
She continued: 'No woman should be walking around in boho. It might look great on Rachel Zoe, but we all don’t have her body. How are you going to wear a tent dress and expect to get laid?'
PATTI STANGER'S DATING DRESS CODE
1. CHOOSE FITTED CLOTHES
'How are you going to wear a tent dress and expect to get laid? The girl with the great legs should wear a mini skirt, the girl with the swan neck should not be hiding in a turtleneck.'
2. DON'T OVERDO ACCESSORIES
'I love Coco Chanel and she would always say, "take the last thing off that you put on". People overaccessorize and it’s just overwhelming. Men will look at you and think you’re just too high maintenance.'
3. WEAR THE RIGHT COLOURS
'Black is always best when you’re bloated, but red wins a man’s heart. Stick to jewel tones like blues and greens. And pumpkin, orange or yellow tones? Stay away.'
4. SHOP WITH A STRAIGHT GUY
'Don’t go shopping with your female friends or gay male friends. What do they know about what will appeal to a straight guy? Take a straight, hot guy shopping to dress you for a date.

She cited Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian as women who understood how to dress for their body types, explaining that girls with great legs should bring out the miniskirt, while one with a swan neck, shouldn't hide it in a turtleneck.
Nor should a girl overaccessorise, as the reality star believes too much jewellery makes a woman look high-maintenance. She added that a man is also unlikely to know whether your costume baubles are real or fake.
She explained: 'I always say, "Don’t wear your diamonds to a date, or he has nothing to buy you."'
In terms of colour, black, rend and jewel tones like sapphire blue and emerald green are in, while pumpkins and yellows are out - 'no man's going to go there,' Ms Stanger said. Prints are also off-limits.
For the best possible dating wardrobe, she advises shopping with a hot straight guy rather than gay or female friends.
'He’ll know what will get you laid,' she said. 'At the end of the day, sex signals the man, and sex equals romance to the man.
'The first step toward a relationship is making him want you,' she added.

Patti needs some herself with her same old boring flat hair every day. Put a bend in it or something Patti!
Who believes that? Women act like men are some alien life force from planet Kucatron or something... men are people just like we are, damn.
