Why we love it: This shaping bodysuit is designed for targeted tummy control and acts as a waist trainer by cinching the waist via its closures. “The hook-and-eye fasteners up the chest with a zipper on top really sculpt your waist—I’ve never had an hourglass silhouette like this before,” says Griggs, who tried the one-piece in size large. It has a hook-and-eye gusset, boyshort cut with lace trim, and a built-in bra. The fabric is substantial, and it’s surprisingly comfortable, though panty lines may show under thinner fabrics. “I even felt confident wearing it on its own—the fit is sexy and supportive,” says Griggs. “It gave my booty some lift, too (nice).”

Best Budget: Shapermint Scoop Neck Bodysuit for Women

Why we love it: This under-$30 Shapermint shapewear bodysuit is soft and lightly shaping without feeling restrictive. The straps are adjustable, and while there’s no built-in boob support, I could wear it with or without a bra. I found it easy to wear all day—on its own with jeans as a tank-top alternative in the summer or under a dress for a seamless look. Subtle breathable mesh panels on the sides stayed inconspicuous under clothing, and the full back coverage with a three-snap gusset made bathroom breaks easy, though panty lines might show under sheer or silk skirts. I tried the black in size large and would size up one size.
