Anyone do it? What clothes do you find work well without buying or altering specially?

This is the only stealthing I've ever heard of. I assume you mean something else??

OMG! YES! LOL.
This is the S&B section. It never occurred to me about the other use of the term. Mortified!
I meant wearing a waist cincher/corset under one's clothing so it narrowed your waist without being obvious you were wearing one!

It's always obvious when someone is wearing one though

Given they're usually underwear, isn't it normal to wear a corset or waist cincher underneath other clothes?! Why would it be called stealthing? Surely it's just called wearing a corset or a waist cincher? Grin Sorry I can't help you with your actual query!

Nosnogginginthekitchen · 12/11/2020 20:38

Can't answer that. I only heard about it today. I think the whole point is to make it unobvious.

If you only heard it today, why casually use it and assume we will all know what it means? 😂

Sounds like a kink, TBF.

I honestly thought you had posted in the wrong topic by mistake!

Nosnogginginthekitchen · 12/11/2020 21:16

Almonds - assumed it was more well known than I was well informed?

Never assume you’re the one out of the loop. Usually most people are equally clueless on any given topic. Wink

Feels like another reason it's crap being a women.
I'll wear when when my DP does.
Eg Never.

If you like corsetry ie the ones designed to be worn as they were meant to be, over an undershirt, then wearing it next to the skin as sexy underwear or instead of shapewear is called stealthing. I'm not sure you can use the term for shapewear though, as no one would chose to wear spanx or a spandex waist cincher anything BUT stealthily!
