Let me start by saying I LIVE in shapewear—weddings, date nights, even grocery runs. But the Werena Thong Shapewear? It’s become my secret weapon for everyday slimming without feeling like I’m in a sausage casing.
The lace is shockingly soft (no itchiness!), and the steel bones? Genius. Unlike other shapers that migrate south by noon, this stays PUT. I wore it under a bodycon dress for 8 hours—zero rolling, just smooth lines. Though heads up: if you’re between sizes like me (usually M, got L), size up for breathing room. The medium compression flattens my post-lunch bloat without suffocating me.
Now, the ‘pooch control’ could be stronger—my lower belly still does a tiny peekaboo in tight jeans. But here’s a hack: hand-wash in warm water to slightly shrink it for extra hold (worked for my sister!). The thong cut disappears under leggings, and the lace back? Cute enough to accidentally flash when bending over (oops).
Skip if you hate thongs (it’s a *true* thong) or want extreme waist training. But for $25? It’s my go-to for ‘invisible armor’ that actually lets me eat dinner. Pro tip: Buy two—you’ll want backups when this sells out again.
