Ask Angie: could I substitute shapewear camis for regular ones?

Hi Angie,

I don't usually wear camis but think they would be great to have for all the reasons you have mentioned in your posts. Yet another great tip Angie!

I have also noticed that there are a lot of shapewear camis available & wonder if I shoud get those instead to help with muffin top & bra back fat. Yes I have the correct fitting bras but I get it no matter what bra I try.

Would the shapewear be too uncomfortable & should it be saved for those outfits that really need the extra help? Thanks

Not Angie, but I often substitute shapewear camis for regular ones. However, sometimes the shapewear ones are not long enough or ride up. As long as they cover what you want covered and any part that shows doesn't look like underwear, I think you are fine.

I have some Yummie Tummie camis. I actually don't find them comfortable for all day wear.

I have a couple of camis that are technically "light control" shapewear, but I like them because they are nice and smooth, and curiously the only ones I could find that had a lowish v-neck. As long as they fit ok and don't slide around I'd think there would be no problem.
