An Alternative to Tummy Tucks

Shapewear: Enhancing your Form

Shapewear, an undergarment that controls excess flab, has become fashionable! It is mostly made of an elasticized fabric called spandex that not only enhances body shape, but also protects lower back regions when excess weight is a problem.

Shapewear for Women
It can change the whole contour of your body. Butt lifting jeans and body shapers for tummy control, and hip and thigh reducers are available in surprisingly sexy styles. Strapless full body wear, camisole and T-shirt body shapers contribute to making you feel more attractive. Unlike the girdles and foundation garments of yesteryear, Shapewear has eliminated the bones and double seams in exchange for comfort and a seamless appearance. Spanx, a now popular product promoted by Oprah, instantly curves, flattens and enhances your assets.

Plus sizes in Shapewear
More often than not, we see thin waif-like models parading the cat walk - braless and barely there - definitely not a body in need of shapewear. However, most women do not sport that look, and plus sizes are becoming the norm. But although women are now embracing the full look, a need for a shapely body still exists. Shapewear can accommodate all sizes.

Tummy Control Shapewear
We have experienced the tummy control pantyhose, and other uncomfortable means of flattening our stomachs. Tummy control Shapewear comes in comfortable, stylish microfibers that eliminate the pantyhose’s feeling of confinement. It is available in the form of panties, camisoles, dresses with thigh, tummy and butt control, full bottoms and waist controllers. They are light weight, made of soft fabrics, and present several color choices.

Shapewear Bodysuits
Body suits do justice to that slinky little black dress and those sexy fitted pants. This form of Shapewear is so versatile it can be worn under anything; matter of fact, some body suits can be worn as outerwear. They wrap around your body like a second skin, concealing lumps and bumps, and giving you more confidence in your appearance. They can be minimal, in the style of a bathing suit, or full length for control from tummy to knees. They are stylish, come in soft designer fabrics, are reasonably priced, and easy to care for.

Shapewear for Men
The typical area for a man to gain weight is around his mid section, often causing pressure and pain in the lower back region. A body shaper can not only support the back, but can also produce a slimmer look. It can eliminate the appearance of love-handles and beer bellies. Shapewear comes in styles to enhance the masculine form, including padded butt underwear, firm control T-shirts, and sexy thongs and briefs with names like Bulge Trunks. Shapewear for men is more popular than they would have us believe!
