Foundations Review

7. April 2008 by admin.

Much like life the most important element of any wardrobe is a great foundation. The more comfortable you are under your cloths the more confident you look and feel in them. A sexy comfortable body briefer smooths your curves and gives you’re cloths to better drape over your body.

As we all know it is at times necessary to mold those rolls into the right places. Unfortunately women must often trade style for practicality when it comes to support garments. The ones that look sexy usually give the least support so support and comfort often come in the form of foundation garments that make you feel old and fat.

With these things in mind I set out to find a body briefer that is supportive, sexy and affordable (or at least well worth the price tag). I am pleased to announce that my mission was a success, here are the results broken into three categories.

BBFly Body Briefer Review

Bra support

  • Functional - its a bra and that’s all you need
  • Yoga Ready - Full frontal and side coverage and comfort
  • S&M - Support plus minimizer and comfort

    • Tummy Support

    • Soft - rounds the curves and gives light support
    • Firm - moderate support, tummy is firm to the touch
    • Tight - wear anything and look 10 lbs lighter

    Level of Sexy

    • Reserved
    • Kitten
    • Vixen

    • Bra support: S&M
    • Tummy support: Firm
    • Level of Sexy: reserved

    Flexees® “Firm Control” Body Briefer with Flex-to-Fit Cups (Style 5456)

    • Bra support: S&M Cut low in the center like a regular bra and offers great comfort and support along the bust line.
    • Tummy support : Firm
    • Level of Sexy: Kitten. Female bartenders in tight tops would get extra tips in this briefer

    Miraclesuit “Extra Firm Control” Body briefers - (Scoop or Long Leg)

    Miracle suit xtra firm body briefer

     

    • Bra cup : S&M
    • Tummy support: Tight
    • Level of Sexy: Vixen. BRINGING SEXY BACK!
    • I felt … Tight, super sexy, confident and comfortable. I wouldn’t be ashamed if someone found it in my drawer. It doesn’t look or feel ‘girdle-ish,’ it just looks like sexy underwear. The lace and the extra support give you a lingerie models confidence.

     

     

    Spanx

    Slim Cognito Seamless Shaping Bodysuit

    Slim Cognito Seamless Mid-Thigh Bodysuit

    The clear winners for seamless support are made by Spanx. The brand praised by Oprah and countless other celebrities. Spanx are also more expensive than your average brand but when it comes to support garments you really get what you pay for. They have a full range of products including pants and skirts, pants and tops with the support built in. The entire line of products are amazing.
