Shapewear Thongs | The Invisible Hero of Your Wardrobe

Say goodbye to visible panty lines and hello to a sculpted waist! In this post, we’ll spotlight shapewear thongs—your go-to for tummy smoothing and a seamless look under fitted dresses, skirts, or pants. Learn how these discreet essentials can elevate your wardrobe with ease.

While you may think of the thong as an underwear drawer staple, the modern thong debuted as a bathing suit created by avant-garde fashion designer Rudi Gernreich before making its way to the lingerie aisle. It’s remained a go-to for people looking for smooth lines ever since.

Get that “is-she-even-wearing-anything” look with our collection of shaping thongs. For light shaping, grab our Ultralight Shapewear Thong – it’s super lightweight (as the name suggests) and has a high rise 2-ply waistband, perfect for everyday wear. Our Fran Shapewear Thong and Alex Cotton Shapewear Thong Alex Cotton Shapewear Thong bump the compression up to medium shaping for additional support. (Fun facts: The original thong was made of nylon, just like the Fran, while the Alex is made of breathable cotton.)

If you want maximum compression, go with our Seamless Solutions Shapewear Thong. It’s got firm compression and an ultra-high rise that hits right below your bra line. A silicone band at the hem keeps it from slipping or rolling. It’s a must under form-fitting dresses and skirts and special occasion wear.

While we will forever love thong shaping underwear, thong bodysuits elevate the artform to a whole different level. (And they pay homage to the original design: the headline-making thong bathing suit was a one-piece monokini.) Our Anette Cotton Square Neck Bodysuit is a flirty-but-chic style with an elegant square neckline. It ups the ante with 360Sculpt™ Cotton that’s soft, breathable, and delivers all-over support. With its hidden knit-in tummy-shaping panel, you’ve got a smooth base for slacks, jeans, and skirts.

Our Ruby Cotton Tank Shaping Bodysuit is another 360Sculpt™ Cotton style, classic with its tank silhouette and scoop neck. It's an incredibly versatile item to wear as a standalone top, or layer underneath blouses, sweaters, button-downs, and jackets.

Our Isabel High Neck Shaping Bodysuit is simple and sleek, making it office-appropriate (yet it can also look sexy in its own right.) This shell top style bodysuit delivers light shaping, paired with a double-snap gusset for an adjustable fit that’s as comfortable as it is stunning. We love this with swingy, extra-wide trousers. Or, as the weather gets warmer, belted cargo shorts.

Our Kinsley Mock Neck Bodysuit has a similar vibe to the Isabel in a mock neck style. It’s a light shaping shell bodysuit made of ultrasoft fabric with a knit-in tummy panel that delivers sleek lines under any outfit.
