What are shapewear briefs and how do they work?
Shapewear briefs, also known as shapewear underpants, are special undergarments designed to shape and enhance the female figure. They are intended to refine, support, and accentuate certain parts of the body, creating a smoother and tighter silhouette. The shapewear brief is often worn to reduce any imperfections such as love handles, belly fat, hips, buttocks, or thighs, and to improve body contours.
How does a shapewear brief work?
- Compression: Shapewear underpants work through compression. They are made of elastic material that fits tightly around the body and applies pressure to specific areas to shape and support them. Compression helps make body parts appear tighter and smoother.
- Shaping effect: Shapewear underpants typically have specific designs, such as high waist, thigh shaping, etc., to shape specific parts of your body. This helps create a streamlined appearance.
- Seamless design: Many shapewear briefs have a seamless design, making them invisible under clothing. This means they do not leave visible lines or edges under tight clothing.
- Different levels of correction: Shapewear briefs are available in different levels of correction, from light compression to strong shaping. This allows you to choose the level of correction that best suits your needs.
Benefits of shapewear briefs
A shape slip is perfect when you want to wear those tight pants. A shapewear slip shapes your belly, buttocks, waist, and hips perfectly. There are 4 types of shape slips. Your figure determines which model is most suitable for you.
Shape brief
Shapewear briefs are available in slips just below and just above the navel. The slips below the navel are particularly suitable if you have a Pear figure, so wider hips and a flat stomach. The slips that come just above the navel are suitable for you if you have a belly, so when you have a Straight, Hourglass, or Apple figure. These slightly higher slips won't roll on you but will neatly correct your stomach.
Shape High Waist Brief or High Waist slip
A shape high waist slip often comes up to just below your bra (but sometimes a few centimeters below it) and thus corrects the entire top of your body: your belly, your stomach, and your waist. The advantage of High Waist slips is that they also support and smooth your back, so that no bumps or lumps are visible on your back.
Shape Thong
If you like wearing thongs, then the shapewear thong is a very good solution for shaping your belly, hips, waist, and buttocks. The shape thong highlights your own buttocks well and does not show through at the back. Often the shape thong has an elastic band around the belly, creating a perfect shape. The combination with lace makes the thong a real must-have.
Shapewear brief with legs or shorts
If you want to shape your hips, legs, and buttocks a bit more, take a look at the shapewear shorts. These slips are particularly suitable if you have a Pear, Apple, or Hourglass figure.
There is a lot of variation in panties with legs; you can choose from short and long legs, in combination with a low waist and a high waist. The advantage of panties with legs is that they prevent your legs from rubbing against each other. For example, wear a pair of panties with legs under those nice skinny jeans. The panties provide tighter buttocks, and at the same time, you can correct your stomach.
Choosing the right size in shapewear briefs
Choosing the right size for shapewear briefs is essential to ensure comfortable and effective use. In general, we advise you to choose your usual ready-to-wear size. We always indicate in the description if shapewear underpants run large or small. If you're unsure, here are some steps to determine the right size:
- Measure your body: Use a tape measure to measure the circumference of your waist and hips. Record these measurements carefully.
- Consult the size chart: Check the size chart of the brand or manufacturer of the shapewear briefs you are considering purchasing. The size chart will show you which size best fits the measured values.
- Compare with your usual underwear size: In some cases, the size chart of the shapewear briefs may differ from standard underwear sizes. If you have already worn shapewear underpants, compare the size you normally wear with the size chart of the specific brand you are considering.
- Pay attention to recommendations and reviews, read the recommendations of other customers and reviews about the fit of the shapewear briefs. This can help you get a better idea of how the shapewear briefs actually fit.
- Try it on before you buy. At CurvesWear, you can order multiple sizes and try them on at home to see which shapewear underpants you find most comfortable. Then you can keep the shapewear briefs that you like best and easily return the rest. With pay later, you take no risk.
Keep in mind that the sizing of shape underwear may vary depending on the brand and model. It is important to consult the size chart of the specific product and consider your own body measurements to find the best possible fit. If you're unsure between two sizes, it's often better to choose the larger size so you don't wear too tight clothing, which can be uncomfortable and reduce the effectiveness of the shape action.
Washing instructions
Washing shapewear briefs requires some extra care to maintain the elasticity and shape of the garment. Here are some general tips for washing shapewear underpants:
- Read the care label: Always check the care label on the shapewear briefs for specific washing instructions. Each garment may have different materials and care requirements.
- Hand wash: If the care instructions allow, hand washing is the best option for washing shape underwear. Use lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Soak the garment for a few minutes and gently rub the fabric to remove dirt and sweat.
- Use a lingerie bag: If you choose to wash the shapewear briefs in the washing machine, place them in a lingerie bag to reduce friction and damage.
- Mild detergent: Always use a mild detergent to maintain the elasticity of the material and prevent skin irritation. Avoid detergents with bleaches or harsh chemicals.
- Cold water: Wash the shapewear briefs in cold water preferably. Warm water can affect the elasticity of the material and may cause the garment to lose its shape.
- Do not wring or twist: Do not squeeze or twist the shapewear briefs, as this can damage the fabric and change its shape.
- Dry gently: Lay the underpants flat to dry or hang them up to dry, but do not use clothespins to hang them, as this can leave marks on the fabric.
- Do not tumble dry: It is advisable not to put shape underwear in the dryer, as the heat and friction can damage the elastic material.
- Wash separately: Wash the shapewear briefs separately from other garments to prevent velcro, hooks, or zippers from damaging the delicate fabric.
By following these care instructions, you can extend the life of your shapewear briefs and ensure they maintain their shape and effectiveness.
Frequently Asked Shapewear Questions
There is a lot of information available about shapewear briefs, but perhaps you have a question that isn't so easily answered. Maybe it's listed below, and if not, you can always contact us. We're happy to help you find the right shapewear that suits your figure.
Can shapewear briefs help camouflage problem areas such as the stomach or buttocks?
Yes, shapewear briefs can help camouflage problem areas such as the stomach, buttocks, and other parts of the body and shape them. Shapewear underpants are designed to provide compression and support, allowing them to enhance your figure and make it smoother. Here are some ways in which shapewear underpants can help:
- Stomach correction: High-waisted shapewear briefs or shapewear bodies can smooth the stomach and help create a slimmer appearance. They can camouflage belly fat and love handles and refine your silhouette.
- Buttock shaping: Some shapewear briefs have specific shaping at the back, allowing them to lift and shape your buttocks for a more pronounced look.
- Thigh shaping: For women concerned about the appearance of their thighs, shapewear briefs with a leg can help make these areas smoother and tighter.
- Overall contour improvement: Shapewear briefs can also help give your whole body a more streamlined appearance by firming and defining certain areas.
Can shapewear briefs be worn under different types of clothing?
Yes, shapewear underpants can be worn under different types of clothing, and they are designed to be invisible under your clothes. The purpose of shape underwear is to shape your figure and camouflage problem areas without being visible under your outfit.
You can wear shapewear underpants under different types of clothing, such as:
- Tight dresses and skirts: Shapewear briefs help shape your belly and hips and provide a smoother look under tight dresses and skirts.
- Pants: Whether you're wearing jeans, trousers, or leggings, shapewear briefs can help shape and support your belly, thighs, and buttocks for a tighter appearance.
- Tight tops and blouses: Shape underwear can help smooth your stomach and back under fitted tops and blouses.
- Jumpsuits and playsuits: Because jumpsuits and playsuits are one piece, shapewear briefs can ensure your whole figure looks tight and streamlined.
- Special occasions: For special occasions where you're wearing a tight dress or need extra support and shaping, shapewear briefs can be a good choice.
It's important to choose the right size and style of shapewear briefs so they fit well and are comfortable under your clothing. Opt for seamless options to avoid visible lines under your outfit. Also, consider the type of garment you're wearing and the level of correction you need.
When choosing shapewear briefs, keep in mind that some styles are specifically designed to address certain problem areas, so choose the type that best suits your needs and the outfit you want to wear.
How long do shapewear briefs last?
The lifespan of shapewear briefs can vary depending on various factors, such as the quality of the material, how often it's worn and washed, and how well it's maintained. Generally, shapewear briefs can last a decent amount of time if properly cared for. Here are some guidelines to extend the lifespan of shapewear briefs:
- Material quality: Opt for shapewear briefs of good quality. Materials like elastane and polyamide are often used for their elasticity and durability.
- Correct size: Make sure you choose the right size so the underpants are not unnecessarily under pressure, which can reduce elasticity.
- Hand wash or delicate cycle: If the care label allows, hand washing is the best option to maintain the elasticity of your shapewear briefs. If you prefer to wash them in the washing machine, use a delicate cycle and place them in a lingerie bag to minimize friction.
- Use mild detergent: Always use mild detergent to avoid damaging the material.
- Avoid drying in the dryer: Lay the underpants flat to dry or hang them to dry. Avoid using the dryer, as the heat can affect the elasticity of the material.
- Don't wear too tightly: Don't pull the shapewear briefs too tightly to prevent unnecessary tension on the material.
The exact lifespan of shapewear briefs may vary, but if you take good care of the garment, it can typically last from several months to a few years, depending on how often you wear and wash it. If you notice the underpants losing their elasticity, stretching out, or showing signs of wear and tear, it may be time to consider a new pair for optimal effectiveness.
Do shapewear briefs affect your posture?
Yes, shapewear briefs can affect your posture, albeit to a limited extent. The degree of influence may vary depending on the type of shapewear briefs you wear and how tight the garment is.
Here are some ways in which shapewear briefs can influence your posture:
- Lower back support: Some shapewear briefs have a high waist and provide extra support to the lower back. This can help maintain a better posture by stabilizing the lower back.
- Posture awareness: Shapewear briefs can make you more aware of your posture because they exert slight pressure and remind you to hold your stomach in and keep your spine straight.
- Improvement of body contour: By shaping and supporting certain parts of your body, shapewear briefs can improve your body contour. This can make you feel more confident and positively influence your posture.
- Feeling of comfort: If the shapewear briefs fit well, they can provide a feeling of support and comfort, which can contribute to better posture.
Can shapewear briefs help reduce cellulite?
Shapewear briefs can help reduce the appearance of cellulite to some extent, but they are not a solution for completely eliminating it. Cellulite is a condition where fat cells accumulate under the skin, forming small bumps and dimples, usually around the thighs, hips, and buttocks. Shapewear briefs are designed to provide compression and shape to certain problem areas, allowing them to smooth the appearance of the skin under clothing.
The compression of shapewear briefs can make cellulite less visible by making the skin tighter and smoother, reducing the visibility of bumps and dimples. This can be particularly beneficial when wearing tight or thin clothing, where cellulite may be more noticeable.
