Slim by Cynthia Rowley Now in Stores

by

Slim by Cynthia Rowley SwimOn my latest trip to Journelle Union square, I came across the intriguing line of shapewear, Slim by Cynthia Rowley. We first told you about it last year. I was eagerly awaiting its arrival in stores and it didn’t disappoint! Photos don’t even do it justice. It’s simply delightful. Made of innovative, seamless material, the bikini, bra, and slip dress are amazingly constructed to give you a smooth silhouette. (Words can’t adequately do justice for the material made of the extremely durable polymide and elastane!)

What I love the most about this collection is that it is fashion forward and edgy. While I like that so many shapewear brands are doing pretty, lacy pieces, I love that Cynthia Rowley went the way of edgy, mod, geometric designs. You’ll pay a hefty price for each of these items which retail from $130 to $260, but I’m confident they are worth every penny.

Slim is available at Journelle and on the Cynthia Rowley website.

Shape FX Shows Innovation in Shapewear

by

When people think of shapewear, most imagine an average nude bike short or body suit, right? Retailer Shape FX is proving that shapewear can be so much more than that by being one of the few brands out there to offer fashion forward designs in lingerie, swimwear and apparel that double as shape-enhancing products.

Pictured below are: the “Lose 10lbs” Little Black Dress, which has a built-in power mesh slip that controls the midriff to the knees and a silicone gripper hem that prevents it from riding up; the Push-Up Control Jean, which features a power-mesh panty that lifts and shapes the bottom while flattening the tummy; the Secret Sculptor Tunic, which features underwire to support and shape the bust and is made of a high-content spandex knit to slim and smooth the torso, hips and bottom; the Flaw-Smoothing Layer Tunic, and the Define and Control Snap Sheath Dress, which has built-in power-mesh to flatten the tummy, smooth the midriff and cinch the waist and side snaps for adjustable coverage.

These styles are ideal for the woman who have an interest in shapewear, but choose not to wear it because of its usually unappealing properties. Check out Shape FX’s Web site for the full range of options of this reasonably priced shaping brand.

ShaToBu – The Workout You Wear

by

Now that shapewear is becoming increasingly popular, brands are trying to stay ahead of the competition by launching one innovative design after another. ShaToBu — “The Tummy Shaping, Muscle Toning, Calorie Burning Workout You Wear “— claims that by using its shape-enhancing products, the wearer can lose up to 12 percent more calories during daily activities like walking or climbing stairs.

ShaToBu was created by chiropractor Dr. Denise Perron, who decided she wanted to make something for her patients that would allow them to do their prescribed exercises, without them knowing about it. Using the principle of resistance training, Dr. Perron crafted this revolutionary shaping garment that uses seamless resistance bands to make muscles work a little harder during natural movement, while remaining comfortable underneath clothing. To get the most out of the product, ShaToBu recommends wearing it 12 hours a day, 7 days a week

Currently there are only two silhouettes available in black and nude: the ShaToBu Waist to Knee Shaper and the High Waist to Knee Shaper, which are both available on the ShaToBu Web site for $50 and $60, respectively.
