It is indeed unfortunate that the perception of shapewear underwear has a bad rap because images of granny panties emerge. While true, these type of undergarments are not the sexiest looking things, they do help a lot in terms of how your outer clothes will look clinging onto your firmed up body. And frankly, are you going to flash your underwear to the public? No, but you will look more fabulous and trim with your little secret underneath.
The only person you have to worry about is your significant other. He might object to such utilitarian undergarments. But that was before and this is now. The Spanx shapewear company has come up with a collection called Haute Contour. This line has more of a lingerie feel to them and are quite sexy with lace trimmings and all that romantic undertones. Your man will surely love it. So listen up ladies, there are no more excuses not to wear shapewear underwear anymore!
