It is well known that the Number One News Year’s resolution for women in the U.S. is to lose weight to look and feel better. But while waiting for those long-term results to materialize, we can be enjoying a sexier ‘look’ and ‘feel’ with a comfortable, form - fitting garment called Body Shapewear. It provides great curves for the woman who wants to be more curvaceous, or for the slightly overweight woman, minimizes bulges and wrinkles and eliminates panty lines and cellulite dimples.

Made with breathable and limitless stretchability, body shapewear physically changes the way your clothes fit, allowing garments snuggle closer to your body so clothing hangs more naturally. Lingerie shapewear is a comfortable accessory to any woman’s wardrobe instantly creating shapelier curves and the look of a tightly – toned body.

In fact, it is so handy and practical, many women wear it under sweatpants and T-shirts to do their errands, as well as business meetings, or going out on a date. Let’s face, we never know who is watching us when we go out. Why not look our best all the time, whether it’s a quick errand to the bank, post office, picking up kids at school or while shopping at the market? By putting on this thin garment first, there’s no sign of the panty line, no tummy hanging over the low-rider jeans, and no bulge emerging under our bra straps.

Today, shapewear is a ‘must have’ for many celebrities who have to constantly be at their best because they are always in the public eye. The website www.galapagosboutique.com reveals, “It’s a safe bet that most of the actresses who walk the red carpet are wearing some type of shapewear: Yes, even the Size 2 actresses complain of cellulite and tummy bulges.” Superstar Jennifer Lopez is one. JLo swears by a product called Commando, a paper-thin undergarment that acts like a second skin, while Oprah endorses shapewear as a wardrobe necessity.

Sold in most department stores and adult lingerie stores, online and off, you can find the perfect piece to accentuate your assets or minimize your flaws by typing ‘shapewear’ into your browser. And while the fabrics may range from spandex to Lycra to other synthetics, the purpose is universally the same: to provide the contour and support to enhance your natural assets and minimize any defects.
