Help - I need some 'sucky-in' pants!

[Questionsquestionsquestions]

Can anyone recommend some control underwear that works? I need something that sucks you in - trying to reduce a stomach!- but that also doesn't create big bulges where the fabric ends...?!
I don't want to buy something and then find it doesn't really work, so looking for recommendations - anyone found anything amazing?

Depends what you'll be wearing it under, your shape/size and how hardcore you want the sucking-in to be.

Spanx shorts (the ones that go halfway down your thigh and are high waisted...think they're called 'power panties') are pretty hardcore. Theyre good under dresses. But if you have a very big tum they tend to make you look pregnant, as just turn the jelly into a smooth bump.

Hmm - it's a dress (one of the knot Krisp ones that I heard about on here!) - but I do have a big tummy though, so sounds like that wouldn't be great. the dress is great, and v flattering - I just want to be slightly flatter if poss (mainly so no-one asks awkwardly if i'm pregnant!)

You could take a look at the QVC website, they sell Vercela Vita, Spanx and some other control undies. You can send anything back, even if worn/washed, within 30 days. That would give you the chance to try items with clothes.

I have some shapewear from Peacocks which was very reasonable and good for the price.

I wear high waisted pants with jeans/trousers, as I find the thigh-tamer shorts make a line in my wobbly thighs. High waisted items need to be high enough to fit under your bra. If the dreaded back fat is a problem, a high back cami style helps. It needs to be a style which accommodates, rather than flattens, the bust. Some have under- bust support, which can be
worn without a bra.
