Listener's Question: Shapewear Advice for All!


Holly answers a listener's question about shapewear, providing a breakdown of the best brands and tips for choosing the perfect fit.

 

From finding the right compression level to picking the right fabric and avoiding common pitfalls, let's help you navigate shapewear with ease:

 

• Key Shapewear Tips:
o Purpose & Fit: Ensure it targets areas like the stomach, thighs, or butt without creating bulges.
 
o Compression Levels: Choose light compression for everyday wear and firm compression for special occasions.
 
o Breathable Materials: Look for fabrics like Lycra or spandex for comfort and flexibility.
 
o Testing Fit: Always try shapewear on before purchasing. Testing the merch in the dressing room is the key. Stand up, sit down, dance around to make sure it stays in place.
 
o Top Recommended Brands: Skims, Honeylove, Commando, and Spanx and so many more!

 

Don't forget to check out Holly’s Pinterest board for more shapewear recommendations

 

HOT TIP: Proper shapewear can be a game-changer, helping you feel supported, comfortable, and ready to shine.

 

Whether it's for a special event or everyday wear, the right shapewear enhances your natural beauty, giving you that extra boost of confidence to own your moment—just like the legends we saw at the Grammys.

 

Stay tuned, and remember, fashion is about confidence, and Holly's got the tips you need to feel empowered!
