Have You Tried Shapewear Yet?

Arbonne Giveaway

I was a little late to hop on the shapewear bandwagon. I put off buying it for a few years just because I figured it would be horribly uncomfortable and add another layer that would defeat the purpose and make me sweat.†

Boy was I wrong.†

I bought my first piece of shapewear this past summer because I needed something to wear under a fitted linen dress I bought from Banana Republic. It was perfect for that dress and eliminated any chance for panty lines. I didn’t love the fabric, though, and I had trouble with silkier dresses riding up, since the fabric of the shapewear was not smooth.

Jockey recently sent me a few pieces of their shapewear collection that are also some of Rachel Zoe ‘s favorites.

First, you know Rachel Zoe, right? I discovered her when I stumbled across her TV show, The Rachel Zoe Project, on Bravo a few years ago. She is a professional stylist (wardrobe, not hair) and is well-known for dressing major celebrities attending award shows. It’s interesting to watch the show and see all the work that goes into the look that celebrities wear at, say, the Oscars. It’s never as simple as picking out a dress. The outfits are oftentimes flown in from across the world because Rachel just knows what her clients will love.†

She really knows how to dress a woman in a feminine and flattering way.†

So when she and Jockey joined up to collaborate on the “Major Must Haves” shapewear and intimates collection, I knew she would pick the best pieces.†Jockey has been around for so many years and is†a leading manufacturer of apparel products sold in major department and specialty stores around the world, so I didn’t doubt that they would create a quality item that women would love.

I wore the Tummy Short under this dress to eliminate any chance of a panty line showing.†


It was so comfortable and not constraining, as I’d originally feared. And the fabric of the shapewear, which is a very smooth cotton-spandex mix, didn’t stick to the dress at all. The dress hung perfectly, and I couldn’t see a ridge, crease, or anything. It was breathable and much more comfortable than the other brand of shapewear I bought earlier this year.†


In addition to the Tummy Short, the other pieces I tried are also solution-based but still pretty.†The Strappy Tank is perfect for wearing under a low-cut or sheer top. I always wear a regular tank top under my shirts because I hate seeing bra lines, but I’m replacing my plain tank top with the Strappy Tank, since it’s much smoother and won’t ride up!†


I’ve learned that if you feel uncomfortable or constrained†underneath†your outfit, you won’t enjoy wearing it.†These pieces marry comfort and function perfectly.†

Rachel Zoeís ìMajor Must Havesî from Jockey are available now in major retailers, Jockey outlet stores, and on Jockey.com.

Mine is a jersey dress incident, after I’d lost a ton of weight and thought I was looking fabulous. I did not realize how clingy it was, and when I went to the ladies’ room later on in the day, I realized you could see VPL and bra straps, in addition to every remaining lump on my body.

Embarrassing on a normal day, but my boss was leading a rather large meeting, and I was sitting up front, running the presentation slides and had to walk past everyone in the room when we needed something.

So yes, firm believe in shapewear now (pardon the pun.)

I’m a yoyoer (really hate to say it!) In my best I was a size 6 (this was about 6 years ago) my worst I was a size 16 (this was well over 10 years ago) I seem to be somewhere between a size 10 to 12 lately more 12…. I’m startign to see the warning signs! So There are a ton of dresses that I have bought that just need me to “tuck” in a little. This would be pefect. I have tried shape wear in the past but it typicall rolls or bunches. And I noramlly buy it big.

Would Love the help!!!

I have a hard time with shapewear. I’m tall and not skinny (not big either, just in between) and have issues with it rolling and bunching. Now that I’m pregnant for the 3rd time, I’d love to try jockey’s shapewear after I have this baby! 🙂

I would love to try a new type of shapewear. I tried a type from Target, but it is just so uncomfortable.

The time I most wished I was wearing shapewear was at a baby shower right after I had my daughter. My dress was flattering enough, but right after having a baby, you just need a little help 🙂

I’ve been on the hunt for great shapewear for what seems like forever now. Everything I’ve tried hits in the wrong place or is terribly uncomfortable. So like others I went without in hopes it wouldn’t be noticed but always felt self conscious or avoided the cute outfits instead. After having a child and losing the weight there still seems to me a smoothing issue that needs taken care of and these products sound like the perfect solution.

I’ve never thought too much about shapewear, but I just had a baby and could use a little something to hold my stomach in until it returns back to normal. There are so many shape wear options out there, so I’ve been a little overwhelmed at choosing the right piece(s) and brand(s). I’ll definitely have to check out hockey’s collection.

I wish I would have been wearing shapewear at a wedding I attended this past May. I thought I looked fine in the mirror before I left the house, but seeing myself in pictures was mortifying!! I had VPL and that awesome back-fat that bulges out around your bra showing under my dress. Yeah, it was fantastic. I’ve put on about 40 lbs on my 5’4″ frame in the past year due to a bout of depression that I’m trying to overcome, and seeing myself like that makes me feel even worse about myself. Some new shapewear might just give me a little bit of confidence until I can get better and lose this weight.

I don’t wear shapewear because it never fits right, and it’s hot! Plus, it just seems like such a hassle. However, I would love to have something that feels good underneath some of my dresses or skirts, or even when I’m wearing jeans and a cute top to make that “mommy middle” disappear a bit. I totally agree that when you feel comfortable underneath your clothes, you feel more confident and beautiful on the outside!! Thanks for sharing! Would love to win!

Well, I’m brazilian and as we all know brazilian women usually have large hips and big butts, and its sooo hard to find the perfect pair of jeans in the US.
I wish I would have worn shapewear to a wedding I attended as a bridesmaid a few months ago… I wore another brand of shapewear and it was torture! It was an outside wedding in Florida, so imagine that! I needed shapewear because the fabric of the dress was really light and I hate panty/bra lines… I was HOT and extremely uncomfortable the entire ceremony. Thank God for AC at the reception because I was seriously considering going commando!!! That’s how miserable I was!

I am still hanging on to my ‘baby weight’ 3.5 years after said baby has arrived…. so in order to fit in some of my post pregnancy clothes I need to cinch everything in (embarrassingly I weigh more now post baby than full-blown pregnant!)

This past weekend I was at a wedding and was wearing a chiffon-y shift dress with my “sausage casings” as I like to call my current shapewear, and the rough exterior of the suck-it-in shorts did not agree with the chiffon-ish material and the whole time my dress was riding up… it was a total “hey girl, your spanx are showing” moment. As long as I was still it was fine (who needs circulation anyway) but lifting my son and just plain ole walking made it difficult to keep my shorts from showing.

I am so excited to try out this Jockey stuff though!! Sounds super soft and I can’t wait to feel the blend!

I have several “shapers” of various brands and all are miserable to wear. I usually wear them when I wear dresses, just to avoid the “vpl” (visible panty line). But more often then not I end up taking them off at lunch time and not caring about vpl anymore!! They are designed to come up under the “girls” so to flatten from bust down, but before I even get out of the closet, its already rolling down my stomach. Less then flattering and by no means comfortable.

I was a bridesmaid in an outdoor wedding in August. I was wearing a chiffon dress that was sort of flowy and at the last minute I ditched the shapewear because it was so damn hot.

I love shapewear and have 1 piece. it covers the tummy and thigh area, but it is so high up on my torso that it makes it a bit difficult to take off to use the restroom.

I would love to find functional- yet versatile- shapewear, that I can mix and match between every day dresses and formal dresses. For my husband’s work, we have several formals and more casual ceremonies that we attend… and it’d be great to find a piece that I can mix and match, instead of needing something new for each dress. I’m a curvy lady, and that makes it even worse to not get that sausage look- and still be comfortable while erasing those embarassing and nervous moments! jthompson0930(@)gmail(dot)com

I would love a shapewear tank. my tanks always ride up under my shirt and i have quite a large chest so I often wear tanks under shirts to hold in the girls and to make them much more modest. Once I was wearing a wrap shirt and i didn’t realize how much it had “opened” up up top and i looked down and pretty much my entire bra was showing. EMBARASSING.

Oh shapewear…my dear friend.

There is only one time where I truly wished with all my being that I had been wearing shapewear, and that was when I was in my friends wedding on a HOT August day. I didn’t need shapewear to cover any lines, or keep things in place, I just needed it for my legs, to keep them from chafing. raw. skin. I didn’t think it would be as bad but the next day anything that touched my legs burned and I learned my lesson. Shapewear is my friend.

I used to wear shapewear when I did events for roller derby, it was mainly tank tops. During games I would wear the shorts under my compression pants, but that was a big mistake….silky shorts under lycra was not pretty. This past summer I tried a body slimmer for a dress and it just made me look worse in a dress. I figured I’m just not meant for a body shaper.

I love that you’ve found us a good tank because I really trust your opinion! I need shape wear every time I grocery shop. Seriously! I have a long torso, so it’s hard to get stuff from top shelves without showing some skin. And then there’s the problem with the back side if I get things from the bottom shelf. So a nice, LONG, smoothing tank could really change my life… or at least my cooking. 🙂

THANKS FOR THE CHANCE!

I wish I had been wearing good shape wear in my best friend’s wedding. I was the maid of honor and my dress fit well when I purchased it, but unfortunately by the time the wedding rolled around that was not the case anymore. Nice shapewear would have made the bad fitting dress look so much better!

I feel as though shape wear is almost always a problem, even if you buy it a size larger it always rides up.

The time I wish I was wearing shape wear was when I was an alumni guest at a sorority banquet. Everyone thought I was pregnant and one person even congratulated me, needless to say, I was not.

I have a great dress that I wore to several events this past spring/summer. Wearing shapewear helped to keep things smooth and sleek. I’ve been slow to join in on the shapewear as well, as it is hard to find pieces that are comfortable.

I have been wondering about shapewear a lot recently too. Mostly for controlling the tummy bulge I am starting to see after hitting the big 37! But times when I wished I had shapewear other than this! Yes…when wearing really fitted tops, I wished the wire of my bra wldn’t show, and with dresses, even with thongs (nightmares!) the seams would be cause for concern with slinky, fitted clothes! Would definitely love to try these out!

How about “Tell about a time when I wish I had been wearing GOOD shapewear!”

I wore shapewear under a great purple dress that I wore to a good friend’s wedding. I wasn’t *ahem* the thinnest I had ever been, so I bought and wore some outrageous shapewear that did NOT “shape me” very well. I constantly adjusted it throughout the ceremony and the reception (re: yanking it up from my ribs, and even having to unhook and rehook the entire thing during one bathroom break). Needless to say, that article of clothing found its way to the back of my drawer!!

Bring on the BETTER shapewear!

Anytime I have jeans and a fitted top on, I wish I had decent shapewear. I have two kinds right now, but one rolls down on the tummy (like above belly button line, but rolls under the “under bra” fat rolls lol) and leaves underwear lines because it’s bikini-type bottom, then the other one I wear, I can only wear with a dress because it has shorts, but cuts into my legs! I wore it with jeans once but you could totally tell. And it’s uncomfortable because it has boning in it. 🙁 Would love something new!

I was in a friend’s wedding this past summer. I had been fitted for my maid of honor dress while I was 8 months pregnant (something about the design being discontinued that next month).

The pictures are awful and I am reminded of it every time I see them on her walls.

I student taught last year and it was the day of parent teacher conferences. I was wearing this really cute dress to school to look my best. I noticed that morning that you could see pantie lines and all sorts of a mess because of my undershirt and tights. It was a HUGE mess so I threw on a slip! I HATE SLIPS! I made it through most of the day without a hitch. It was the last half hour of the day and our first parent was scheduled to be there right at the bell. I felt a snap. This wasn’t a cheap slip (or tight for that matter) but apparently the elastic used in the band was cheap, and it broke. The slip decided to start sneaking down. I excused myself to the bathroom, took it off and threw it away after finding no other solution to save it. I spent the whole night of parent teacher conferences wondering if the parents could see all of my lines. I died a thousand deaths that day!

I prefer to wear shapewear any time I go to a fancy function like a fundrsaiser or wedding to hide undergarment lines and to smooth out my shape. I’m inspired to go out and try this new line of shapewear! Thanks for the post.

PS: I just saw this dress at Target and bought it because of you. I LOVE it. Thanks!! <3

I went from being in great shape (running marathons) to being pregnant and on bed-rest. Luckily, baby went full term and was a big boy…. I’m only 5’3″. Trying to lose the weight and get my skin to shrink back it much easier than it sounds. I wore what used to be a loose and flowy top to look nice for a wedding almost 12 months later. Someone asked me if I was pregnant again. Really wish I had spent the money and bought something to hold it all in.

I have been out today trying on shapewear for the first time. Getting married in NINE DAYS! My dress shows the lumps and bumps on my thighs, so I am trying to smooth things out. I wish I had found shapewear today!

I have never been opposed to shapewear – even if it was just a little control top pantyhose. Because of this, I honestly can’t think of a time when I should have been (or wished I was) wearing it and I wasn’t. I try to be prepared! However, I’ve never worn shapewear on the top, and I always just thought bra lines for big-busted ladies was our lot to endure, so I like the idea of wearing a tank beneath that won’t ride up.

I wish I had shape wear everyday. After having two kids in two years, everything has moved and nothing fits right or looks good! I call my midsection my “mommy extras”. Maybe shape wear would hold everything in place while I work on getting my body back?!

Love your blog!

I wish I had known about Jockey’s shapewear sooner! I remember purchasing Spanx for a couple of Michael Kors pencil skirts I had bought, but the Spanx kept riding up and showing a crease in my thighs! I have put off wearing my skirts until I find good shapewear and I hope Jockey’s is it! 🙂

I am Lisa. I am 26 years old. I love to wear Shapewear. It gives slim and stylish look. It helps to transform our look from ordinary to wow! There are many benefits to wearing body contouring shapewear when you need to look your best for that certain important event. After all, looking good is so important especially when you have that certain outfit and you don’t want to look like you squeezed too tightly into it!

” I figured it would be horribly uncomfortable” This is a misconception you find often. Especially young women, although many of them never tried a piece of shapewear, show this prejudice. Although widely spread this is simply not true.
If you wear shapewear for the first time it may take a while to get accustomed to it. But within a few days you will recognize that you can feel well wearing shapewear. What it does for your posture and your well being.
Very important is to buy shapewear that really fits. At the beginning professonal help is necessary.
And shapewear is not only for women. Men can benefit from shapewear too. I have been wearing girdles for many years. I tink every woman and man can profit from wearing good forming shapewear. My recommendation: have an open mind and try it. Give yourself a chance to fall in love with forming garments.
