The WK Dress & Shapewear - Recommendations, please

NaturalBornWoman · ‎10-21-2012

I require NO visible lines of any kind when wearing knits! Want "the girls" to look round - not pointy and what few curves I have to look smooth. My Scandale Shapewear Dress is perfect for the Linea WK dress - it's French made design is a combination of 50's vintage & today's modern that can be worn strapless.

I would like to purchase a similar design @ a more modest price point - quality investment.

What can you recommend? Please state brand names, styles, etc. - where to purchase?

Bottom line - comfort

TIA Linea Ladies

I did try this on and it did not work for me for a couple of reasons.

The vertical lines showed thru on the dress I bought it for...kind of defeating the purpose.

The built in panties were going to be a pain to hook and unhook.

My bra size is bigger than my hips/waist and so to fit my bra size made the bottom half not quite snug enough. Perhaps due to this...it was less of a shaper and more of a smoother.

I did try on at a store...did not purchase.

Thanks kate2357 - your reply is most helpful.

I have the Flexees that Kate is referencing, but I bought them for a low backed gown. They worked well for that item, but I can't imagine wearing them under your dress and here's why.

You would have to hike the dress bottom over the hips and turn yourself halfway upside down to unsnap the crotch. Do that a couple times in one day and I would think that the bottom half of your dress would look wonky after being stretched out. ${#emotions_dlg.scared}$
