How to wear a skirt or dress comfortably
During the summer, you may experience more discomfort due to the chafing between your thighs. This is because your skin expands in warm temperatures, causing your thighs to stick together and rub against each other. When wearing a skirt or dress with bare legs, you become aware of this issue.
The cause of chafing thighs
The main cause of chafing between the thighs is primarily higher temperatures, leading to sweat glands in the skin not being able to effectively release sweat, eventually becoming clogged. This can result in skin irritation. This summer ailment is not attributed to (excess) weight but is mainly related to the body's structure. Any woman (regardless of whether she wears size 36 or 46) with thighs that touch during walking or standing can experience this!
Opt for shapewear shorts
Combine practicality with comfort by wearing shaping shorts with legs under your clothing. With such shapewear shorts, your outfit looks even more appealing, and you can prevent skin irritation between your thighs. Shaping shorts come in various models:
- Shapewear shorts with short legs: Especially handy when wearing a shorter skirt or dress. An example is the Sleek Smoothers shorty from Maidenform.
- Shapewear shorts with long legs: If you opt for a longer skirt or dress, it's better to choose shorts with longer legs. The legs of these shorts often roll up less, smoothing your entire thighs. The Sweet contour short janira from Janira, for example, is wonderfully airy and also shapes your abdomen.
- If you want to smooth both your legs and your abdomen, hips, and waist, high-waist shorts with legs are an excellent choice. Our favorite is the High Waist Shorty from Maidenform.
- If you want to shape your entire body, choose a body shaper. From your legs to your breasts and back, it will make you look tighter and smoother.
- New is the ultra thin legging from spanx, ideal for chafing legs.
Now you're ready for a skirt or dress with bare legs!
