Spanx Women's Higher Power Thigh Slimmer

Product Information

Since it’s a thong, she adds, it’ll work just as well with jeans and pants as it will with skirts and dresses.

Though you could go with the old reliables, like Spanx and Yummie, or the newer, buzzy brands like Knix, our pick for the best shaping shorts is this pair from Rago.Consider an open-bust bodysuit if you’d rather wear your own bra — this one offers the same torso and thigh sculpting as the full Spanx bodysuit above, without the one-size cups.

With that in mind, she told us this long-legged pair of shorts from Rago has “totally flat seams that won’t ever show under clothes, a split crotch so you don’t have to wriggle out if it to use the bathroom, and special grippy, lace leg holes that don’t ride up or bind your thighs. The misconception that shapewear can’t be sexy and feel great on you while doing its job is dispelled with this piece,” she says, promising that it is totally capable of smoothing you out even with its beautiful, minimal coverage design made from lightweight fabric.The wrong brief means dealing with unwanted visible panty lines — undies branded as “shaping” sometimes even exaggerate the problem with multiple seams and panels.
