Our shapewear favourites
All-in-one: Body suit
If you want to pull everything in rather than focus on one particular area, this is the perfect choice. The underwired bra offers support for bigger busts and boosts smaller busts. A waist is created through the use of panelling and the built in briefs offer support for your bottom.
Body suit, £29.99, New Look (newlook.com)
Stylist's tip: Getting your bra fitted every 6 months will ensure you have adequate posture, lift and most of all, confidence.
Big bum: Slip-on suit
King of silhouette, Gok Wan, has designed the perfect slip if you would like to skim some inches off your behind. This will flatten and boost leaving a smooth finish and also allows you to wear your own choice of bra.
Slip-on, £45, Gok Wan for Simply Be (simplybe.co.uk)
Tummy: Slip-on suit
For anyone who is conscious of their stomach or simply wants a slimmer figure, look no further. It sits just underneath your bra and on your knickerline and will leave you feeling comfortable and confident for the rest of the night.
Slip-on, £26, Marisota (marisota.co.uk)
