Best Place To Buy Shapewear

This do-it-all style shapes your thighs, butt and hips with extra emphasis on the tummy. Tested by our Textiles Lab experts, the higher rise is designed to erase any \"muffin top\" issues, and its no-slip waistband helps it stay in place. The best part is you can wear it all day: The lightweight, seamless fabric offers a medium firmness, so it'll smooth without feeling like you can't breathe, according to our clothing pros. Fashion stylist Meaghan O'Connor also keeps this shapewear piece in her own repertoire.

If you're looking for tummy control but don't need thigh coverage, this high-rise brief has firm control around the tummy and a silicone waistband to help keep it in place. It's designed to smooth bulges and create the illusion of hourglass curves. While we haven't Lab-tested this pick, reviewers love its stay-in-place fit: \"I LOVE the slightly rubbery threads around the top,\" says one Amazon reviewer. \"This does not roll over even if you slouch. \"

This style has the stay-in-place benefits of a bodysuit but gives you even more compression than other styles and you can wear your own bra if you prefer. We reviewed this in our Lab and were impressed by its all-over smoothing benefits, plus panels in the midsection that give extra support. This one also has the bottom closure that's a lifesaver in the bathroom.

This heavy-hitter Brazilian brand offers a more corset-like fit that works best for special occasions and on-camera work, according to personal stylist Messiah. Our Textiles Lab experts like that the structured boning and smoothing fabric work together to give you a curved shape. It may look like an old-school corset, but the hook-closure up the middle lets you adjust the fit to your liking. It's designed for everyone but is loved by postpartum women who want abdominal support.

This one-piece holds everything in comfortably and stays in place better than sectional shapewear. Our Lab experts were impressed by the light lining around the cups, which means you won't need your own bra. The lace pattern looks nice, but the brand also claims it makes the style more breathable. Plus, with the bottom closure, you can use the restroom without dressing down to your birthday suit.

Start building your shapewear collection with the perfect starter short. This slightly sheer option from Thigh Society claims to be buttery soft and fights against chafing, and goes from XS up to a size 6XL. Choose from three different short lengths to fit your specific occasion. It's also a style and brand coveted by O'Connor: \"I have a number of different styles, different brands, all with different purposes in my shapewear arsenal,\" which includes Thigh Society.

Some shapewear takes a struggle to throw on but not this one: It's so easy to slip on and take off. Thanks to its endless strap configurations, you can keep it perfectly hidden no matter if you're wearing a strapless dress or a long-sleeved top. \"I love that you don't have to worry about clips or anything when you need to use the loo, thanks to the 'easy access gusset',\" says GH Institute General Manager Laurie Jennings.

Some bras create unwanted lines and bulges, but this style has back-smoothing fabric to get rid of bra-induced back fat. When we Lab-tested this bra, consumer testers said it was comfortable, supportive and looked great under clothing. One D-cup tester even says it was the best-fitting bra she's ever owned!

If you typically wear an everyday layering tank, this one's for you. You can throw on this style under tops to slim and smooth, but it won't feel as constricting as regular shapewear. It's designed with increased compression at the midsection and is made to fit up to a G cup bra without compressing your bust. \"I love it and wear it at home on the weekend and also as a layer under sweaters to work instead of wearing an actual bra,\" says a Knix reviewer.

Take your shapewear to every dress fitting and put it to the test.

We were intrigued by the viral Yitty TikTok videos and Instagram posts, so we put the brand to the test. Yitty's bodysuits stood out the most positively for our tester, with no-roll engineering that keep smooth lines in place and sweat-wicking ability for those hot summer days.

\"In the beginning, shapewear used to be too tight and it would push the fat in the wrong way, which was just not flattering,\" says Los Angeles celebrity stylist Sophia Banks-Coloma. \"I remember going on a date and thinking I had food poisoning because I was wearing bad shapewear. I had to remove it in the bathroom.\"

As long as you wear it properly, shapewear should be relatively comfortable. \"There are different levels. It can be ultra or light slimming,\" says Milena Joy, an image consultant in Denver. \"You don't have to wear something that will totally change your shape. You can choose what spots, to target just your thighs, butt, stomach, or multiple areas.\"

Although you can buy shapewear online, it's worth it to go to a store to try on several brands and styles. If you're buying for a specific dress or outfit, bring it with you. A quick hip and waist measurement can help you make sure you're looking at the right size, Banks-Coloma says.

Going down a shapewear size, however, won't help you zip yourself into a smaller dress. \"Women sometimes try to size down to add extra firmness,\" Joy says. \"But that makes you look bigger because it can cause bulges, and it can be uncomfortable.\" 781b155fdc
