Shapewear. It’s a weapon most curvy girls have in our arsenal. But with the gazillion types and varieties out there to choose from, it can be more than a little overwhelming. I know that it was for me, when I first made the plunge to invest in one.
Fortunately, The Curvy Fashionista is NO STRANGER to giving us the tips and tricks necessary to buy products that not only fit our needs but also fit our budget. We’ve written about shapewear basics in the past (consider that Shapewear 101). But I’m a firm believer in making sure our knowledge is retained.
Now that dress season is currently underway, it is the perfect opportunity to revisit the subject of plus size shapewear.
Are you ready for a refresher course? Let’s get started!

We hope that this quick little refresher course was just the tools you needed to help make the choice to try some of them for yourself.

I really wish they would make some cinchers with zippers rather than hook and eye closures. They would lay so much smoother
i agree!
I can never seem to view your articles on my phone and it drives me insane. Who handles the mobile website compatability?
oh? what issues do you have? Please share or inboxx me screenshots?
It’s always the galleries, the new way it is being done. The galleries won’t load and when I try to interact with it (flip to the next picture), it acts buggy and keeps going back to the first picture.
