A shapewear bodysuit looks like a one piece swimsuit, but has
very little in common with them. Not everybody is comfortable in swimsuit-
courtesy, body insecurities. Enter shapewear bodysuits.
Shapewear bodysuits affect the user’s
waistline, torso, upper and lower back and hips. They also lift the wearer’s
bosom and help enhance their derrière. This entices a large number of women to
purchase them and achieve the ‘smooth’ look. Another USP of these is that it
completely hides what is colloquially called ‘muffin top’, i.e. the tube-like
fat which is visible above a low waist pant worn by women. It is also
completely invisible under dresses.
Bodysuits are of two kinds: smooth and sculpt. ‘Smooth’ bodysuits
are almost like a second skin- they provide only light compression; ‘Sculpt’
bodysuits are true to their name and totally transform the body. While the
former can be worn all day owing to its barely-there design, the latter is
mostly worn only for short periods and formal events.
Though they may have many advantages, bodysuits are more often than
not wrongly used. Many women prefer to go ahead and buy a bodysuit, thinking
that it is a one stop solution, instead of accurately identifying which body
part they want to sculpt and then purchasing the relevant shapewear.
Buyers must keep in mind that different bodysuits offer different
levels of comfort and support and it is important to be aware of this before
purchasing one.
