SIZE GUIDE

🖤 Size Guide

Finding your perfect fit is everything — the right size shapewear should smooth and sculpt without feeling tight or restrictive.
Follow the steps below to get a comfortable, confidence-boosting fit every time.

📏 HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF

You’ll only need a soft measuring tape (or a string and ruler if you don’t have one).

  1. Waist:
    Measure around the smallest part of your waist — usually just above your belly button.
    Keep the tape snug but not tight.

  2. Hips:
    Measure around the fullest part of your hips and bum while standing naturally.

  3. Compare your measurements with the chart below to find your ideal size.
    If you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up for comfort.

💡 Tip: Shapewear is meant to be form-fitting.
It should hug your body without digging in or restricting breathing.
If you prefer a lighter hold, choose one size up.

❤️ FIT & FEEL ADVICE

  • For daily wear or longer events → go for your true size.

  • For extra sculpting (night out, fitted dress) → size down one.

  • If you’re between two sizes → size up for comfort.

Remember: shapewear stretches slightly after a few wears, so your first fit may feel snug — that’s normal!

🧺 CARE TIPS (to maintain shape & stretch)

  • Hand wash in cold water

  • Use mild detergent

  • Air dry only — avoid tumble dryers

  • Don’t bleach or iron

Proper care keeps your shapewear strong and supportive for months.
