Most of us have favourite outfits and pieces in our wardrobe that we fall back on time and time again, but are you really lifting them to their full potential? If you have never seen your favourite outfit with customised shapewear underneath, then it’s likely that you’ve never seen just how good you can look and feel in your favourite pieces. Whether you’re looking to smooth out and define your figure or add a new element to your look, your shapewear should work to lift your whole look rather than just suck you in.

If your main priority when choosing shapewear is something that will rid you of any lumps or bumps that you might find unsightly, then you are probably most concerned with the “suction” aspect of the garment. Oftentimes, the first choice for women is a general, mass-produced item that works as an approximate fit, as close to our dress size as we can get it. But is it doing your outfit more harm than good?

Because a piece isn’t tailored to your specific body, you’re probably noticing that the result isn’t quite what you want. Whether you’ve undergone a serious struggle trying to get it on, can see the seams through your favourite blouse, or are facing discomfort in your everyday wear of your shapewear, buying off the rack won’t do your body or your outfit any favour. If you want to smooth out your silhouette, your best choice is an item that is made to fit your exact shape, rather than a cookie cutter garment. That way, you can ensure a smoothed out, seam-free finished look, ready to take your favourite outfit to a whole new level.

But if you’ve always thought that your top look might be missing something special, then shapewear probably hasn’t been the forefront of your mind to accessorise with. It’s an understandable idea, because most shapewear we find is something we’d rather keep hidden at the back of our closet than flaunt, but why not have the best of both worlds? The range at Vera Donna features items with a hint (or a lot) of lace, or even a few crystals, which can add the depth to an outfit that you might be lacking. A peek of lace underneath your favourite blouse can elevate your look, or the glimmer of Swarovski crystals beneath your LBD might just turn heads, giving you the confidence to walk with your head held high.

With all of the new elements that Vera Donna shapewear can add to your outfit combined with our custom fit compression garments, you are sure to bring your old favourite outfits to centre stage.
