Why women switch

You've owned shapewear before. It let you down.

Most shapewear is built to squeeze. Ours is built to hold. The difference shows up two hours in, when everyone else is in the bathroom pulling theirs back down.

The old pair

  • Rolls down by the second course
  • Digs a line into your waist
  • Traps heat under a dress
  • Rides up the thigh all night
  • Needs adjusting all night

The Sculpt Short

  • Zips shut and stays shut
  • Wide band lies flat, no fold-over
  • Breathable stretch knit
  • Lace hems grip, so the leg stays down
  • Put it on once. That's it.

Same dress, same day

Caveat we lead with

The lace hem and front zip can show under bias-cut silk or very fine jersey. That is in the FAQ, not the small print.

How it's built

Built to fasten, not just pull on.

A firm spandex knit with a zip front, a wide scalloped waistband and lace-trimmed leg hems that hold the leg in place.

Compression
Graduated hold — firmest across the tummy, easing through the thigh, so it never grips in one band.
Stretch
High-recovery knit that springs back after each wear instead of bagging at the waist and knee.
Zip front
Fasten it once and it stays fastened — real compression without fighting a pull-on garment.
Scalloped waistband
Wide and high, so it lies flat across the waist instead of folding over.
Lace grip hems
The lace edge holds the thigh so the leg stays down. No silicone, no sticky feel.
Best worn under
Knits, ponte, denim, tailoring and lined dresses. The lace hem shows under very thin or bias-cut fabric.

Why it works

Support where you want it. Nowhere you don't.

  1. 01
    Waist — firm

    A wide scalloped band holds the waist flat instead of folding over.

  2. 02
    Lower tummy — firmest

    The zip front closes over the firmest panel in the garment. This is the one you feel in a fitted dress.

  3. 03
    Hip & seat — moderate

    A curved knit seam runs under the seat and lifts it. No pads, no inserts.

  4. 04
    Thigh — light

    Light hold and a lace grip hem, so the leg stays down and skin stays smooth.

Before you order

Answers, plainly.

Which size do I take?

Go by your hip measurement, not your dress size. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one — the hold is graduated, so you lose nothing in shaping and gain comfort over a long evening.

Size Waist Hips
S 66–70 cm / 26–28" 94–98 cm / 37–39"
M 70–74 cm / 28–29" 98–102 cm / 39–40"
L 74–78 cm / 29–31" 102–106 cm / 40–42"
XL 78–82 cm / 31–32" 106–110 cm / 42–43"
2XL 82–86 cm / 32–34" 110–114 cm / 43–45"
3XL 86–90 cm / 34–35" 114–118 cm / 45–46"
4XL 90–94 cm / 35–37" 118–122 cm / 46–48"
5XL 94–98 cm / 37–39" 122–126 cm / 48–50"
6XL 98–102 cm / 39–40" 126–130 cm / 50–51"

Measurements are the manufacturer’s and are a guide — choose according to your own figure. Inches are converted and rounded from the centimetre chart.

Will it show under a fitted dress?

Under knits, ponte, denim, tailoring and lined dresses — no. The body of the short is smooth. But be straight with yourself about thin fabric: this pair has a lace-trimmed hem and a front zip, and both can show under bias-cut silk or very fine jersey. Under those, size the shade to your own tone and expect the hem line to be faintly visible.

How firm is the compression?

Firm, but graduated — strongest across the lower tummy and easing through the thigh. You'll feel held at the waist and barely notice the leg. It's designed for a full day of wear, including sitting down to eat.

When will it arrive?

Orders leave our warehouse within 24 hours. Standard delivery is 5-8 business days in the US with tracking. International delivery is estimated at 10-20 business days, also tracked. Shipping is free either way.

What if the fit is wrong?

Try it on at home for 60 nights. If the size isn't right we'll send you the correct size and won't charge you for it, and if it isn't for you we'll refund it — worn, washed, either way.

Email us first and we'll send a return authorisation. Return postage is yours to cover, unless the pair arrived faulty or we sent the wrong thing — then it's on us and you usually won't need to send anything back at all.

How do I wash it?

Cold machine wash on delicate in a mesh bag, hang to dry. No fabric softener — it coats the elastane and softens the hold.
