Shapewear is much more than just sculpting lingerie; it’s also supportive lingerie, sexy lingerie and, above all, slimming lingerie! It’s the flat-tummy lingerie we’ve all been waiting for!

With shapewear, our curves have never looked better, our posture has never been so lifted and streamlined, and our tummy has never looked so flat. Our feminine curves are enhanced. By launching her own brand of shapewear, Kim Kardashian dusted off and brought back into fashion the high-waisted girdle-style shaping panties our grandmothers wore. Shaping briefs, shaping shorties and shaping bodysuits have become must-haves.

Fortunately, the 2024 version of the girdle is far more comfortable and pleasant to wear; it’s also sexier and more feminine. In short, slimming lingerie has established itself as essential women’s lingerie!

Here are the 5 essential tips for wearing shapewear without making mistakes.

It’s important to choose the right size for your shapewear underwear. When you first see a shapewear piece or sculpting lingerie, you might think there’s no way you’ll fit into it. Shapewear is actually very stretchy, so don’t panic. We strongly recommend following the brand’s advice, checking the size guide and taking your own measurements.

It’s very simple: grab a tape measure and note down your measurements. Thigh circumference, hip circumference, waist circumference, bust measurement – take them carefully. It matters and will reassure you. Choosing a size that’s too small (in the hope of losing a few centimetres) is really not a good idea: you’ll feel squeezed in and your wearing experience will be anything but comfortable.

Just like our period lingerie, Louloucup shaping and sculpting lingerie is made from high-quality technical fabrics. These provide exceptional support and strong firmness.

Keep in mind that slimming or shaping lingerie can be more or less firm. There are different levels of firmness. Do your research and think about what you really want. Are you looking for a flat, held-in tummy or sculpted, reshaped hips? Do you want slimmer thighs or a reshaped butt? In shapewear lingerie, there are different levels of firmness and compression. In all cases, it’s strong-control shaping lingerie.

Plus, the different models in the Louloucup shapewear range don’t roll down on themselves like some shapewear lingerie can. Thanks to the internal silicone bands, our Louloucup shaping pieces (both our shaping panties and our shaping shorts) stay in place and remain perfectly still on your skin, no matter how much you move.

Good to know: the Louloucup shaping underwear range has been designed for everyday wear.

The softness of the cotton is just as important as the firmness of the elastic. Yes to shaping lingerie and feminine lingerie that is finally pleasant and comfortable to wear!
