Bodysuits
Bodysuits are a versatile option for shapewear. They come in a range of styles, from strapless to long-sleeved, and can be worn under different types of dresses. If you want to shape your torso, waist, and hips, a full-coverage bodysuit like AirSlim® Hourglass Full Body Shaper is the way to go. This is the best body shaper even with short summer dresses because it`s not irritating to the skin, won`t budge, and will keep your body intact.

High-Waist Shapewear Shorts
High-waist shaping shorts are an excellent choice for anyone who wants to shape their thighs, hips, and waist. They offer great coverage and control, excellent fit, and great upper body support, and they are perfect for wearing under A-line and tight-fitting dresses or other styles that flare out at the waist.
Shapellx has a great selection of shaping shorts that will tuck in your tummy, smoothen out any bulges, and give your form a beautiful shape.
Waist Cinchers
Waist cinchers are perfect for those looking to create an hourglass figure. They are designed to cinch your waist and smooth out your tummy. They are available in different styles, including high-waist, mid-waist, and low-waist. Choose a waist cincher with hook-and-eye closures for maximum control.
If you`re only looking to define your waist, a simple waist trainer is the best. Avoid bulky waist trainers by getting an abdominal tummy wrap that has a slim yet strong cinching capacity.

Thigh Slimmers
Thigh slimmers are perfect for wearing underdresses that are fitted around the thighs. They are designed to smooth out any bumps and bulges, and they help prevent chafing. If you’re wearing a shorter dress, choose thigh slimmers that have a seamless hemline to avoid any visible lines.
The good thing is, Shapellx has AirSlim® Sculpting Resistant Tights which would go well with your bodysuit, or shaping shorts, or you can wear it as is with short dresses especially if it`s a bit chilly outside.
Shaping Camisoles
Shaping camisoles are great for those who want to smooth out their upper body, including their back, bust, and tummy. They are perfect for wearing underdresses with a low neckline or back. Instead of wearing tank tops that budge and roll, a soft-shaping camisole will be a great undergarment for any strapped dresses.
If you’re wearing a dress with a sheer or lightweight fabric, always opt for a camisole that is made with thin, breathable material.
The best shapewear is the one that can make you feel right and confident when wearing your dress. Always remember that the key to choosing a shapewear is the body areas you want to target and the kind of garment you`re going to wear it with. This way, you won`t be overwhelmed by the vast amount of online shapewear options.
