Shapewear Slims Instantly
"Shapewear" refers to body-shaping undergarments that take off the inches without a single visit to the gym!
As The Early Show on CBS continued its year-long "Weapons of Mass Reduction" series Thursday, Glamour magazine's executive fashion editor-at-large, Suze Yalof Schwartz, showed the ones she thinks work best, with the help of volunteer models and "before" and "after" views.
Schwartz says if you really want to slim down, you should go a size smaller than you really are.
Shapewear, by any name, is hardly new. Women have been wearing body garments to conceal lumps and bumps for years, but Schwartz says the latest trend features shape-shifting undergarments that are sleeker, sexier, and designed to make you lose inches in an instant!
Selecting the right shapewear to get the job done can be a bit confusing. There are many brands and styles of body-shapers, but Schwartz likes Dr. Rey's Shapewear, Spanx and Maidenform.
