Shapewear for wedding season
For mini dresses and short hemlines
When wearing a minidress, the last thing you want to worry about is an undie slip or visible shapewear lines. When you put on Wacoal’s Shorty Panty, you get a smooth, barely-there feel.
You also get enough support to enhance your silhouette without restrictive compression. The seamless construction ensures it stays invisible under even the shortest hemlines while the soft, second-skin fabric moves with you for all-day comfort. Dance the night away at that wedding with confidence.
With the Body Base Shorty panty, you can enjoy seamless, comfortable shaping and zero thigh chafing.
For maximum comfort during all-day events
Wearing shapewear shouldn’t feel like being shrink-wrapped all day, especially when you’re in it for hours. This full-body piece provides gentler support without the squeeze, making it comfortable enough for those weddings where you’re invited to the ceremony and reception (yay?). The wire-free bra design offers light control, while adjustable straps let you find the right fit. It’s also seamless—not threatening to dig into your skin at any pressure point.
This all-in-one shaper can give you a smooth, sleek look under your wedding outfit, whether you're in black-tie or cocktail attire.
For tight, bodycon dresses
Ever tried wearing normal underwear with a bodycon dress? You know they leave little room for error, but the right shapewear can leave you looking slim and panty-line-free.
This thigh shaper offers moderate control for your tummy, hips, and thighs without being too tight. Designed to enhance your natural shape, it provides a second-skin fit that disappears under even the thinnest, tightest fabrics. The high-waist design ensures a smooth transition under dresses, while the breathable fabric keeps you from sweating things up this summer.
This hi-waist thigh shaper proves that shapewear can blend into even the most slim-fitting outfits, all without sacrificing comfort or functionality.
For strapless, backless, or low-cut dresses
Strapless, backless, and plunging dresses look stunning, but only if your shapewear isn’t stealing the spotlight. With no straps to worry about, this Wacoal piece delivers firm, smoothing support while remaining invisible under daring necklines and open-back styles. It contours your shape without slipping or digging in, so you can move comfortably and confidently. Plus, the low-back cut and lightly structured fit ensure a secure hold, making it the perfect foundation for any statement-making gown.
Strapless shape wear doesn't have to be uncomfortable—this option stays invisible under even the most skin-showing outfits and offers complete smoothing and coverage.
For curvy figures
If you’ve felt like shapewear works against your curves, it might be that you grabbed a piece that wasn’t made with your body type in mind—however, Wacoal’s Hourglass Thigh Shaper might just be your new favorite shapewear.
Unlike shapewear that squeezes too much or rolls down at the worst moments, this piece moves with you and stays in place. It has targeted compression around the waist, hips, and thoughts, enhancing your silhouette without flattening you out.
Anyone with an hourglass or curvier figure can benefit from this thigh shaper, which is specifically designed with a low V-back and sits at the natural waist for your most flattering shapewear.
For hot, outdoor events
Nothing ruins a special event like getting sweaty and uncomfortable in your outfit. This Wacoal shapewear brief can smooth your tummy without turning up the thermostat.
The moisture-wicking fabric keeps you dry, while the venting fabric on the sides keeps you completely comfortable—even if it’s mid-July. If you need go-to shapewear that can keep you cool as a cucumber even during a long wedding ceremony, this breathable shapewear option is for you.
Unlike other shapewear, this one is designed to keep you sweat-free, coming with a breathable, cooling fabric and offering moderate shaping.
