Slimpressions Shapewear

Made in America, Slimpressions is a patent-pending line of everyday shapewear to smooth and compress a woman’s body. The company’s founding patent-pending garments, The Haves and The Have Nots, offer a unique solve in the shapewear but Slimpressions needed to respond to consumer demand and offers new products to slim women’s most troublesome areas. As of the Summer of 2009, a Bottom Line has been added to the Slimpressions family as well. The Bottom Line includes the Control Brief, Hi-Waist Control Panty, Long Leg Shaper and Seamless Full Cut Panty. The line’s garments also come in petite sizes…another new addition in 2009.

Slimpressions is different from its competitors because its garments are seamless. The garments are made using the patented Santoni seamless process…..molding to conform to every body type. Several other companies offer shapewear that is cut and sewn together, which ultimately sacrifices fit and effectiveness.

Many shapewear products are just not very comfortable. They can be very hot and confining. Slimpressions’ garments are powerful, yet thin. The company designed its line to be a lightweight solution with moderate control. Slimpressions took extra care to make sure women could feel confident wearing their products by including details like a nice, mesh weave for added breathability.

Slimpressions is sold on the internet at HerRoom.com, and in fine women’s clothing and lingerie shops throughout the U.S. and Canada. To check out the Bottom Line, go to www.slimpressions.com.
