Shapewear questions

BoozyBaker, on September 6, 2016 at 5:29 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 13

I purchased a piece of shapewear (whole body from bottom of boobs to thighs) and it works "okay" but the hole in the crotch for peeing is unusable. I tested it at home a few times and could never NOT get pee on the fabric which meant when I wore it out I had to take my dress off and nude down just to pee.

Does anyone know of anyone that makes shapewear with snap or hook crotches but *also* has thighs? All I can find are things that look like bathing suits. I've tried google and amazon, Maybe I don't know the right terminology (but both sites filled in 'crotch' for me so that's what I went with.)

    All I can find on Spanx is double gusset which just means its the hole. Even Spanx has bad reviews about that hole. Why has no one invented this yet!?

    Beth, that was uncalled for. I'm flagging you.

    ETA: I have no idea Boozy, but if you can't find anything, I would just make the crotch hole bigger lol

    First off Beth that's a little harsh. Maybe she doesn't need to lose weight and just wants it for smoothing purposes, or just for security!

    But @BoozyBaker have you tried looking at the different brands and different styles TJMaxx and Marshalls offer? I've gotten some good ones from there that aren't too bad to go to the bathroom with

    Daaaamn @Beth, I didn't see what you wrote, but if it was about my weight, I couldn't possibly care less about your opinion on that.

    I've been reading reviews and everyone says to just cut the hole bigger too, lol. I feel bad taking scissors to an $80 undergarment but if it works *shrug*.

    Disclaimer: I drink a lot and have a tiny bladder.

    I understand! At least cutting it wouldn't affect what it does, though. Hopefully somebody on here has a recommendation.

    I don't wear shapewear (just have never spent the money for the good stuff haha) so I don't know but - is it really that difficult to take on and off? For my wedding, I took my sister (MOH) with me to the bathroom and she helped me step in and out of my dress (it had a hidden zipper closure) to pee. It wasn't that big of a deal and didn't take that long.

    I think a long lines bra or a snap crotch shape wear should be suitable for you

    Not sure but I had trouble looking for shape wear this weekend. It seemed the torsos would short and dragged my boobs down. I need something that will give me some lift.

    Reviving this to say thanks to CO Bride! Something like that is exactly what I was looking for, shapes everything including legs and still has a flap for peeing lol. Thank you!!!

    Oh I'm glad you saw it! I didn't want to end up with ads for lingerie on my work internet browser for nothing Smiley smile It looks a little complicated, but I concur that the "gusset" opening is just peeing all over your $80 spanx

    Look up what they reccomend for people who have had surgery like liposuction. They have a lot of undergarments with snaps that you can choose from.
