Shapewear brands like Spanx, Playtex and Ultimo are a great way to sculpt and define your body and give you the confidence you need to look fab in the summer months. Plus today’s shapewear is lighter and more comfortable than ever. Here are a few tips on Top Summer Shapewear Styles to tame your trouble spots.
| Wobbly Tummy = Waist Sculpting Shapewear For ladies who are worried about their ‘jelly belly’ or a wobbly tummy, then waist sculpting shapewear is perfect for you. This brief shape has built in control panels in the front to smooth and tighten the appearance of the waist. Available in nude and black silky soft fabric, the flat seams provide comfort and invisibility under clothes. |

| Dress Size Smaller = Full Body Control Shapewear Full body control shapewear targets all areas of your body. Using a smooth Lycra fabric for ultimate comfort this will sculpt your tummy, bum and waist to create a slimmer and more defined silhouette in seconds. Full body control shapewear is available in a range of colours, also with a seamless finish it’s invisible under clothes so no-one needs to know. |

| Muffin Tops and Jiggly Thighs = High Waist /Long Legged Shapewear The perfect solution for ladies who want to slim down the dreaded muffin tops or define their upper thighs. High waist / long legged shapewear delivers a high level shaping technique to create a sleek hour glass figure through the use of strong elastic fabric. These are mainly available in subtle colours such as nude and black and, like the waist sculpting shapewear, they use a flat seam for invisibility and comfort under clothes. |

| Smoothing Lumps and Bumps = Full Body Slip Full body slip shapewear is perfect option to smooth and sculpt any lumps and bumps that are on show from your lingerie. Similar to the full body shapewear, the full body slip uses a smoothing Lycra fabric, as it targets the waist, hips, bum and thighs. In addition to smoothing your silhouette, this magical little number also helps to enhance your curves under dresses. |
