The other day I was at the mall and saw a woman wearing a black sun dress that was stunning until I walked up to her closer and saw her bra straps. I am sure we have all had wardrobe malfunctions and challenges.

What’s a woman to do? We as women should always be thinking about arming ourselves with summer wardrobe solutions that empower us to live life to the fullest. I am certain that the woman I noticed only wanted to wear her beautiful dress, but was not equipped with the right undergarments. I believe in solutions, not problems, so my recommendation for the black dress diva would have been a bra that allows you to take off the straps and do a clear strap. The other option, and a big come back trend is the tube top. The tube top can be a bra or an entire camisole that provides a shapewear solution as well. I love this!

One of the advantages of wearing the tube top is that it can be worn underneath a jacket or shrug for another wardrobe solution. Anytime you can get two for one, it’s a score. A tube top bra in color is another fashion solution for when the dress is too low. If you had a print dress and wanted to pop color underneath, the bra would appear to be a camisole. The tube top is also another way to wear spaghetti strap dresses. Simple ideas such as this make getting dressed fun.

Your Shape, Your Way – The Torsolette

A couple of years ago when I saw infomercials showcasing shapewear that had a bra peeking out of the top, I thought NO WAY! I am not recommending nor would I ever consider wearing this myself. As they say, never say never…In late fall, I tried one on a client who had mentioned she never could find shapewear that fits. It was no joke, and I went through several collections until we pulled out the then “no way” undergarment. Winner! My client beamed for joy and her challenge had ended. It again proves that one style does not do it all for every woman. The torsolette is the hottest trend in shaping. It allows you to wear the bra of your choice while the torsolette tones and trims your mid section. As we enter into summer, this is a must have if you have had challenges wearing shapewear camisoles or one piece undergarments that have pulled you down, or not provided enough lift.

I would also recommend for people who have lower back pain. I have had several clients report back that they stood taller, and they did not feel so frumpy and there lower back pain disappeared. Remember, if you don’t have shape, lift and support your undergarments are not working for you.

Slim, Trim and Tone the Torso – Body Confidence

So many times when we get dressed in the morning it feels like a struggle to wear anything body conscious when we have “issues”. This is no longer the case when so many amazing companies are designing shapewear that is sexy and a solution. My favorite part of being a Lingerie Fit Expert is providing women with confidence. It’s that go and do it diva attitude that we need to get dressed in the morning daily.

Spring for so many women is a dance of fear. You go shopping and you see a dress or top and your heart begins to beat fast. “Can I wear that? What about my bacon and bulges? Now you can stop those voices with shapewear that focus on the torso. Some provide a bra and others enhance the bra you wear from contour to strapless. Ironically, as I was writing this blog I received a call from one of my clients who purchased a torso camisole. She was raving about how much back support it provided. She felt like it made her stand tall and more upright and her clothes fit like never before! This is a woman’s dream. No fussing, pulling and tugging.

Select a style that enhances your wardrobe and your “fit” challenges.

As the year draws to a close we took a poll of our client’s favorites and the winner was hands down the TC 444 Shapewear Camisole and A406 Boy Short. One of my clients, Gail Mitchell of Palm Springs, CA, remarks on the fit of both items:

“I love my life and my new figure after loosing over thirty pounds in my mid 60’s. I purchased the TC Camisole and Boy Shorts and was amazed at the flattering fit and comfort of the garments. My friends noticed that I started wearing more body conscious clothing including my new hot mama Ralph Lauren Jeans. The boy shorts don’t smash, they actually enhance my new shape. I would recommend to anyone! ” Gail Mitchell

The goal of any bra, shapewear or underwear should be to help a woman find solutions that work with her wardrobe or figure challenges. Time and time again we have seen both the camisole and underwear do this and more. Click on the link to find out more about these fabulous shapewear solutions.
