Shaping Clothes: What are you Missing? |
Posted: May 2, 2019 |
When you think of shapewear, shapewear styles that are meant to be worn under your clothes—like shaping panties, shapewear slips, and full body shapers—are probably some of the first styles to come to mind. However, shapewear clothing has revolutionized the idea of what can be considered shapewear. Shapewear is no longer limited to layers that you have to try to hide underneath your regular clothes. The next time you’re shopping for shapewear, some of the shaping pieces you pick out can double as casual clothes that you can add to your everyday wardrobe. Shaping clothes are more comfortable than shapewear styles that are meant to be worn as bottom layers, and these clothes remove the frustration of trying to keep your shapewear invisible under tight or thin tops or dresses. They perform basically the same way as classic shaping pieces and are made from firming material all-over or include panels of double-layer compression material in certain areas. Plus, they are available in varying levels of compression to match your comfort and compression preferences. One of the best things about these intriguing everyday shapers is how discreet they are —even more discreet than classic seamless shapewear. When you’re wearing shaping clothing, no one will know you’re wearing shapewear unless you decide to tell them yourself. Even if you strip off all your clothes in front of someone, they would be none the wiser that what you were wearing has shaping properties—this added dimension of discretion removes the awkwardness of wearing shapewear on a date that turns out to be more “successful” than you intended. Even if you aren’t a fan of classic shapewear, don’t give up on shaping clothes without trying them. You might be surprised at what versatile, trustworthy wardrobe additions these casual shapers can be. Leggings, tank tops, and bodysuits are just some of the most popular shaping clothing styles that you’ll be missing out on until you add them to your own wardrobe. 1. Shaping Leggings Leggings are a wardrobe staple for most women. Shaping leggings combine the comfort and carefree style of leggings with gentle shaping coverage that slims and sculpts your thighs and backside to make your casual everyday outfits more flattering. Many shaping leggings are also high-waisted and come with a built-in panel around the midsection that effortlessly and discreetly slims your waist, hips, and tummy. 2. Shaping Tank Tops One advantage of shaping tank tops is how versatile they are. You can layer a shaping cami underneath a blouse for some hidden shaping coverage, layer an open cardigan or denim jacket over it in the fall, or you can wear it all by itself on a hot summer day. Most tank top shapewear styles are either made from all-over firming fabric or are designed with a compression tummy panel. They are available in countless different styles; there’s no end to the shaping tank styles you can add to your wardrobe. Many even come with built-in bras, so you don’t have to worry about pairing your tank with a bra that won’t show off your bra straps to the world—which makes getting dressed in the morning even easier. 3. Shaping Bodysuits Bodysuit shapers are nothing new. However, traditional bodysuit shapers are crafted to serve as a bottom layer that shapes your midsection discreetly underneath another top or dress. Many shaping bodysuits are now designed to be worn without any other top layered over them. Bodysuits are currently trending as some of the most stylish pieces in the world of women’s fashion. Shaping bodysuits look just like any other stylish everyday bodysuit, but they are made from special compression material that offers shaping coverage for your midsection. Pair a shaping bodysuit with high-waisted denim and cinch a belt around your waist to create an effortless, on-trend and ultra-slimming look for everyday wear.
