Now that the best of the summer is officially over, it’s time to start counting down to the party season and preparing the perfect party outfit. Spending long hours in changing rooms trying on different outfits in front of a mirror with awful lighting can be incredibly daunting for many – this is why Luxury Legs have put together a comprehensive guide on how to feel and look your best during the festive season.
Shapewear is typically designed to target four primary areas: the bust, waist, hips and thighs. These four areas are found to most often be the cause of not only low self-esteem, but also physical discomfort in women. The principal aim of shapewear is to enhance the natural figure in order to achieve a feminine silhouette, but shapewear has many other benefits beyond improving confidence and self-esteem.
If you want to flatten your stomach and accentuate your waist then control briefs are your best friend. Look no further than the Yummie high waist thigh shaper, offering invisible control with raw bonded panels that are discreet under clothes. The high-waist band has a non-slip grip which ensures no roll downs, and the shorts are so thin and versatile they can be worn under almost everything from trousers to dresses and skirts.
Another reason to invest in shapewear is to avoid those pesky visible panty lines (VPL), which occurs when the lining of your underwear is visible. Stylists recommend wearing nude and seam-free underwear options such as the Hanro midi seamless briefs, a mid-rise brief great for giving the illusion of longer legs and a flatter stomach. Other alternatives include Commando classic high rise smoothing thong and Hanro smooth illusion thong.
Due to the cold weather, you may choose to wear tights with your outfit. Choosing leg shaping tights can have extra benefits as it increases blood circulation, as well as giving you a slight tummy tuck and making your legs appear much longer. The Wolford shape control tights are elastic-free to prevent any rolls, digging or pinching on the body, while the Spanx Graduated Compression Sheers feature innovative technology that provides graduated compression throughout the leg for improved circulation and all-day support.
Luxury Legs provides shapewear body sculpting pieces that feature designs using the latest technology, fabrics and cuts to bring out the best of your natural shape with both support and style. Other benefits of shapewear include improving posture and strengthening the abdominal muscles, reducing strain on the back when worn daily, as well as aiding the body as it undergoes the ageing process by providing support to weakening muscles. Whether physical or psychological or both, the benefits of shapewear and body sculpting underwear make it one of the most rewarding wardrobe investments around.
