To the joy of women everywhere, the embarrassment of visible panty lines and bra seams has literally disappeared, thanks to the invention of seamless shapewear.
Shapewear is today’s name for the “foundation garments” our mothers and grandmothers once wore. Where once women wore corsets made of canvas and whalebone, today their great-granddaughters can look sleek and sophisticated in garments constructed on special knitting machines made by a firm called Santoni. This new manufacturing process has resulted in virtually seamless garments.
There’s Nothing to See with Seamless Shapewear
What’s more, today’s seamless shapewear uses compression, rather than those unsightly seams and boning, to enhance sections of a woman’s body. With the support literally sewn in, shapewear garments now flatten tummies, smooth and lift buttocks but without flattening breasts. The results are not only curvaceous figures without unsightly bulges, but women who are much more comfortable in their clothes.
The first company to offer seamless shapewear was Body Wrap, followed quickly by other companies such as Spanx, Flexees, Bali, Barely There and Sassybax. The shapewear offerings from these companies range from the full bodysuit, also known as an all-in-one, to bras, camisoles and control briefs. Each brand, along with others, has specialized products design to shape, smooth, slenderize and control a woman’s body wherever she needs it most.
For example, Body Wrap offers a remarkable seamless thong that controls waist and tummy, but doesn’t compress the buttocks. It’s tailor-made for those women who possess a terrific backside and want to show it off. Body Wrap offers a dozen different seamless style shapewear products in sizes from small to 3X. Of all the current makers of such undergarments, Body Wrap seems to have the greatest variety of shapewear for women of all shapes and sizes.
Sassybax is an unusual manufacturer in that it specializes in products to shape a woman’s back and midsection. In particular, its seamless shapewear eliminates those unsightly “bra bulges” that can make even the most beautiful blouse look ill-fitting.
For those who’ve never tried shapewear, there are a number of advantages to these updated garments when compared to traditional bras, panties, girdles and slips. These advantages include immediate and visible results, additional support that slenderizes and the way these latest models simply disappear under clothing. Women who wear seamless shapewear report they feel firmer, slimmer and sexier in their clothing.
In addition to their shaping and support qualities, seamless shapewear also has excellent “wicking” ability. This term describes a fabric’s ability to draw moisture away from the skin. As any athlete can attest, a garment with good wicking capacity can keep a person cooler and more comfortable in many circumstances. Wicking is especially important in the crotch of a bodysuit and in any of the range of lower-body garments such as a long leg panty, a high waist long leg panty, and a pants liner.
More and more, many women are replacing their familiar bras and panties with seamless shapewear. If this trend continues, there will be many more beautiful women out there who enjoy comfortable control in their outfits while presenting a smooth and sleek silhouette to the world.
