Control bodysuits and shapewear

15 Replies, 12483 Views

I'm looking for something that would reduce my waist by ... as many inches as possible 😉 I like the squeezing feeling, I like the hour-glass shape and I do not want to deal with corsets (again).

Ideally it should be a swimsuit/leotard or something that can be worn under a water-polo swimsuit. Waist cinchers? Control shorts? Any experience? Advices? Ideas? Links?

In a couple of shops in Portugal I saw high-waisted briefs with rubber (neoprene?) inside and silky nylon fabric with chlorinated-latex feeling. Unfortunately we did not have time to try them on and we bought a couple of items (not shapers, no rubber) for my wife. And now we are wondering about the shapers...

Oh, you've been in Portugal! You could have said something 😋

I know the briefs you're talking about, they're great for the "squeezing" effect you want 😊

I've seen them in one of the big shopping centres in Porto.

I bet, by the look/touch/(price) of it 😉

Completely missed that post.

Nice photo from one of the most known bridges in Porto, I actually work there hehe.

It is true what you said about the "portuguese" legs, they arent the best legs in Europe but the whole package makes up for it ^^
I need to finally post the photos I took in Portugal...

I have the same question as you do Ra. I think Spanx is overpriced in my opinion.
