The modern shapewear has a long history dated thousands of years ago. In fact, the very first shaper is not the corset but the ancient girdle. In ancient times, the girdle is believed to hold magical properties which are related to ancient gods and goddesses written in poems and stories. From body strengthening to fertility, the ancient girdle holds a very significant role in improving one’s beauty.
Today’s shapewear may not hold mystical powers but just like it’s ancient predecessor the modern shapewear helps instantly improve and beautify one’s shape and body. From full body shapers to butt-lifting shorts, the modern shapewear comes in different shapes and sizes depending on the target area that one wants to improve.
