Body shaping clothes, also known as tight fitting clothes or corsets, are functional clothing that temporarily changes the appearance of the body by applying pressure to specific parts of the body through highly elastic fabrics and special cuts. The principle is based on pressure difference, by applying segmented pressure (such as waist and abdominal pressure>arms), tightening loose fat, lifting sagging areas (such as buttocks and chest), achieving the effect of modifying body shape.

Common types and functions

• Full body shapewear: covering from shoulders to thighs, suitable for postpartum repair, full body shaping, and can simultaneously lower waist, lift buttocks, and slim arms.

• Partial shapewear

• Waist and waist cinching: strengthens the pressure on the waist and abdomen, shapes the waistline, and is often used to match dresses or daily slimming.

• Hip lifting pants: By using a hip cup design and a lifting strap, the buttocks are enhanced to create a peach shaped look.

• Plastic corset: gather the chest together, pair with strapless dresses or correct chest shape.

Core Material Analysis

• High elasticity synthetic fibers: Nylon (nylon) and spandex (Lycra) are mainstream materials, with spandex content usually ranging from 20% to 35%. They have strong elasticity and good resilience, ensuring a shaping effect.

• Auxiliary materials

• Latex: increases hardness and support, commonly found in the waist and abdomen.

• Memory metal wire: used to support the waist or back and help correct posture.

• Breathable mesh: Locally spliced breathable fabric (such as underarms and crotch) to relieve stuffiness and heat.

Key Guide to Purchasing

• Accurate measurement: Measure key data such as waist circumference, hip circumference, chest circumference, etc., compare with the brand size chart to avoid affecting blood circulation due to tightness.

• Pressure rating: Choose the pressure level according to your needs. For daily wear, it is recommended to wear medium to low intensity (with a pressure value of about 18-24mmHg). High strength shapewear is only suitable for short-term special occasions.

• Try on key points

• Check for any strangulation marks at the waist and thigh base to avoid excessive compression.

• Ensure smooth breathing and no chest tightness; Move freely without affecting normal walking or raising hands.

• Observe whether the fabric is flat, without wrinkles or accumulation, to avoid affecting the shaping effect.

Precautions for use and maintenance

• Wearing duration: No more than 8 hours per day, avoid wearing while sleeping to prevent affecting lymphatic circulation and muscle relaxation.

• Applicable scenarios: Suitable for pairing with tight fitting clothing (such as dresses, suits), or for postpartum recovery (following medical advice), but cannot replace exercise and healthy eating.

• Cleaning and care

• Hand wash or machine wash with laundry bags, water temperature should not exceed 30 ℃, avoid exposure to sunlight (for fabrics that are prone to aging).

• Avoid contact with sharp objects to prevent wire damage.

• Health risks: Long term wearing of tight shapewear may cause skin allergies, difficulty breathing, gastrointestinal discomfort, and other problems. It is recommended to take it off regularly to relax the body.
