Modern Girdles:
They've Come a Long Way For Tummy Control

When you think of girdles, you may imagine the uncomfortable pieces of lingerie your grandmother wore. Those girdles are gone with the wind! However, today’s girdles are more comfortable and more effective than every before. Girdle styles used for tummy control today are much sleeker, allowing plus size ladies to achieve full tummy control without the discomfort traditionally associated with girdles.

Women wanting to make their mid-section appear flatter can now opt for control top panty girdles. These girdles are shaped like normal full coverage panties. However, they have a strong built-in tummy panel that flattens your stomach instantly. The modern girdle often also smoothes your bottom area, which is an added plus! Remember when you’re shopping for a modern girdle to choose the right size. If you’re a large, get a large! If not, you’ll find yourself with that dreaded “muffin” effect at the top of your undies! We recommend Her Room for this item.


Spanx Is All The Rage!
Do you ever wonder how full figure stars look so smooth under their clothes? Or, maybe you’ve noticed many celebrities have “instant” flat stomachs a week after giving birth. The truth is, most often this is due to the popular Spanx undergarment fashions brand! Spanx has been shaping and smoothing stars for years!

The brand offers tights, hosiery, slimming camis, bras, panties and more. However, their most popular items are their body shapers. Their shapers come in many styles, including camis, hi-rise panties, thongs and bodysuits. The results are incredible for women of all sizes. The Spanx brand allows you to keep the curves you love and smooth out the curves you don’t love so much. Plus size women can utilize this fashion-forward brand to feel more comfortable in their own skin! We recommend Bare Necessities for this item.


Slips Aren’t Just For Your Grandmother
Slips are something many women take for granted these days. Sure, they are not absolutely necessary (unless you’re wearing something transparent). However, they can be a quick fix if you can’t get that smooth look you’re going for in a dress or suit.

Today’s slips are most often made from soft satin. While you can still find cotton slips, most women prefer the feel of satin on their body. They come in many styles including the full slip, half slip and pant slip fit. They are lighter in weight than a body shaper. However, they don’t “shape” as much as the body shapers are able to do. Instead, slips are most often effective if you want to ensure you have a little extra coverage under your clothing. They are great at reducing “clingy” effects from clothing that may tend to bunch up in the not-so-flattering places!

If you want to look great while sleeping and keep your comfort, consider trying an adorable cami for you’re nighttime slumber. There are many different styles of camisole intimate apparel. For those who women who have a sporty nature, cotton camis are the perfect fit. Those who would rather kick up the “hotness factor” a bit may opt instead for a satin cami with lace trim. No matter what you choose, you can bet a cami is a great way to stay covered and comfy in bed! We recommend Roaman's for this item.


Bodysuits are an Easy Slimming Solution
There are plus size women all over the world that wouldn’t dream of wearing clothes without their trusty bodysuit underneath. Wonder why?

A slimming bodysuit is the easiest quick fix a woman can own! Worn under any type of clothing, this essential intimate item can transform a body into a smooth and sleek work of art. Bodysuits come in strapless, camisole, wide strap, thong and full panty options. They can be found in solids, prints or even lace. They’re not only functional, but also fashionable! If you want to look hot and sleek all day, with full control, try a one-piece bodysuit to get the best results. We recommend Bare Necessities for this item.


Try a Strapless Corset For Elegance & Class
Are you planning on attending an elegant event and need some lingerie that works with your evening wear? If so, try a strapless corset. A corset is not only great at keeping your bust where it needs to be under your dress, but it’s also extremely sexy! There’s no other lingerie piece that is quite as functional and hot at the same time.

A strapless corset can be found with or without underwire, depending on the amount of support you need under your clothing. Corsets come in many colors, styles and fabrics. Just be sure to choose one that will appear seamless under your outfit! We recommend Hips and Curves for this item.


You Can’t Beat Underwire Shapewear
When You Need An Extra Bust Boost!
There’s nothing written in nature saying all full figured women have large busts. Unfortunately, not everyone is blessed with a full bust area! With that being said, there is an easy fix for those with smaller busts…underwire!

Underwire is something most women are accustomed to finding in their bra. However, underwire can now be found in shapewear, corsets, camisoles and all other lingerie items. If you want a little extra boost, it is the way to go. Today’s underwire options are more comfortable than ever before. They offer support, lift and comfort all in one! We recommend Just My Size for this item.
