The shapewear pieces you need to get an hourglass figure
Looking at celebrities, we can’t help but wonder how they always look so perfect. Don’t they eat?! Where are their stomach or back rolls? It’s not even that they look skinny, they’re always just so defined. But maybe, just maybe, they have a secret they’re not telling us about. Could that secret be shapewear, perhaps?
Kim Kardashian wearing a Thierry Mugler dress and Mr. Pearl corset at the 2019 Met Gala.
If you remember Kim Kardashian from the 2019 MET Gala, you probably stopped dead in your tracks and wondered how on earth her waist looked like that. Although Kim’s a regular at the gym and has her nutritionist on speed dial, we know from her pre-MET Gala video with Vogue that she was wearing an incredibly snug corset underneath her latex dress in addition to full-body shapewear. Rumors are she couldn’t even pee in her dress.

Bodysuit shapewear is usually meant to help smoothen out the stomach area, since the waist, and act as underwear. Sometimes, a bra is attached and that helps keep the chest area looking lifted. Bottom line is, you shouldn’t be afraid of shapewear. It really helps achieve specific looks and could increase your confidence if it’s something you’re interested in trying!
