Shapewear
Shaping and control pieces to smooth and support under clothes, led by Control Body's Italian-made range with more from Wolbar and Gabriella's compression hosiery. Briefs, shorts, bodysuits and shaping tights come in black, white and nude shades such as skin and beige, in sizes from S/M to 2XL. Fabrics are mostly elastane with nylon or polyamide for a smooth finish.
Choose the piece for the outfit: shorts and briefs under dresses and skirts, a bodysuit for a smooth line through the waist, and compression tights under trousers. Control Body sizes by bust, underbust, waist and hip, and Gabriella's hosiery by hip and height. Shaping briefs and hosiery are sealed for hygiene, so they cannot be returned once opened.
How tight should shapewear feel?
Firm and smoothing, but never painful. You should be able to breathe, sit and walk comfortably, and if it rolls or digs in, the size is probably wrong.
Which measurements do I need?
For Control Body, bust, underbust, waist and hip, taken snugly and compared with the chart. Hosiery needs hip and height instead.
Will it show under clothes?
Seamless finishes, which Control Body and Wolbar both make, are designed to leave no visible edge. Choose a shade close to your skin tone under light fabrics.
Shapewear is where size matters most, so check the brand's chart in Size Guides or let Find My Size work from your measurements.
