Does anyone wear Spanx? I have heard a lot of movie stars talk about wearing them under their dresses in particular. (of course, not the size "C" that I would need--LOL!) I just got an email from Kiyonna about them selling them in skin tones now.

I am intrigued. Should I invest?

I have one that I wear underneath Mardi Gras gowns. I really like mine. I don't really use it though for more than formal wear. I like that it helps smooth things out. That whole baby thing, ya know. I don't know if that helps much! I can say they are not as uncomfortable as you might think they are. You kinda forget you have it on. I really like the way it makes me look in the more fitted gowns.

I was really thinking of getting a pair of these as well. They are a bit pricey but I have heard lots of good things so I might just have to invest in a pair!

It is a body shaper/smoother! Almost like a girdle but more comfortable! :rotfl:

Yes, they are worth the investment!!!! They do wonders...really pulls in places that aren't behaving (and sadly they may never:( ). They are comfy and literally make you look like you lost 5 lbs. I had two babies in 18 months...Wonderbras and Spanx are my friends. :p

I have a friend who swears by them. Wears them all the time. I've never tried one but she does look better with them on.

They sound like a good idea, if they aren't uncomfortable.

As for Wonderbras....i've tried them.....they just wonder why I'm even bothering....its pretty hopeless.

Target carries Spanx under the name "Assets". I have both Spanx and Assets and I can't tell the difference. I love them.


Also these are other stores listed on the Spanx website that are available on SR.
