                              Girdles for Women
                              By now we have all heard of Spanx, the shapewear brand that brought back the popularity of the girdle.  Today, girdles for women are called shapers or shapewear.  Read about the different kinds of girdles below.

                              Plus Size Panties

                              One great type of shapewear comes in the form of plus size panties.  When purchasing panties, why not get briefs with tummy control.  Today, high cut shaper briefs look like regular panties but have added features such as rear shaping, sleek and flat waistbands that won’t roll and seamless smoothing that won’t show under your clothes. Look for products that have fabric that is folded at the edges for no elastic dig-in. You can also find long length shaper briefs that come down above the knee.   

                              Plus Size Body Shaper

                              Another great type of girdles for women are body shapers.  Body shapers can include a comfort bra, hidden tummy control panel, and adjustable straps for a better fit. They should be seamless with all over smoothing.  Materials are soft comfort stretch such as Lycra in pretty styles such as jacquard and lace.  These types of girdles are great to wear under your favorite dress.  

                              Torso Shapers

                              Some women just want to smooth out bulges that occur between the bra and the waist.  For this need there are shaping camisoles, long-line bras and high waist cincher briefs. Camisole type girdles resemble tank tops and end just above the waist.  They are smooth and tag-free.  Long-line bras are bras that have material that extend down over the torso.  High waist cincher briefs are two-in-one panties and waist control lingerie with material that extends up over the tummy. Some have boning construction.

                               Thigh Shapers

                              Additionally, some women looking for girdles for women just need to smooth the hips and thighs.  Thigh slimmers are panties that extend over the thigh and some go past the knee for smoothness and comfort under pants.  As with all shapewear, the objective for the thigh shaper is for the garment to be smooth and unnoticeable.  They come in body tone colors, with flat seams and flat shiny type fabrics that glide under clothing. 

                               If you are searching for a girdle you will be pleased to see the advancements that the foundation industry has made in product choices.  Girdles for women are not just for your grandmother anymore.  Celebrities are wearing them and proudly talking about how their clothes fit over their shapewear.  Shopping online is fine if you know what your need is and where to find a store that offers name brands with affordable solutions.
