5 tips and tricks for wearing shapewear

Shapewear has become very popular in recent years and nowadays it seems more normal to wear it. Especially with certain outfits this can be a solution to quickly and easily flatter your figure and boost your self-confidence. Whether you want to wear that tight dress, trousers or choose a skirt, shapewear is always possible. However, it can sometimes be quite difficult to choose good items and that is why we give you 5 tips & tricks. This way you get the most out of your shapewear!

1. Important: choose the right size

Shapewear secretly only works if you choose the right size. Did you know that many people choose a size that is too small and want to squeeze into it as if it would provide extra correction? Exactly... that obviously doesn't work. Not only does it cause more discomfort, it can even lead to breathing problems and pinching edges. Trust us... you definitely don't want that. It's also really not flattering. Shapewear should feel like a second skin and follow the contours of your body, without putting too much pressure on it. So measure yourself properly and if in doubt, choose that one larger size.

2. Invest in quality

As with many other things, it can be tempting to opt for cheap. However, it often pays off to invest in high-quality products and brands, because these quality items last a long time if you take good care of them. Better quality can be recognized by breathable and elastic materials, products that fit well, are less transparent and last much longer. It also often offers more wearing comfort. SHAPESSE is such a quality brand!

3. Combine your shapewear with the right underwear

The whole idea of shapewear works best when you combine it well. So choose the right undergarments, such as seamless corrective underwear. That way you prevent visible edges and your look remains even. There are also shapewear items that have built-in bras or panties, so you don't have to think about underwear at all.

4. Comfort comes first

You might not think so, but shapewear is all about comfort. And that is certainly the case with SHAPESSE. Your silhouette looks beautiful and you feel comfortable all day long, no matter how you move. If you have any doubts, try out different models to discover what suits your body, outfit and wishes best.

5. Shapewear as swimwear

Our last tip is one for the summer, because at SHAPESSE they also have a shapewear swimsuit . Super unique and special, because you don't come across this very often. We all know those corrective swimsuits, but often they do very little for you (except for a bow in the waist). This shapewear swimsuit is incredibly flattering and also looks beautiful. You will get through this summer very comfortably!
