The fair sex uses various methods to present their figure to the eyes of others in the best possible way. An example of such means are slimming tights. Their other name is modeling. Such a wardrobe item is produced specifically to help ladies hide their flaws and emphasize their dignity.
Product description
Slimming tights, which are designed to create feminine attractive shapes, have a special composition. Basically, these are elastic fibers, with the help of which the fabric fits snugly to the body. Thus, a slimming effect is created: the buttocks are slightly lifted, and the legs look slimmer.
Tights produced by different manufacturers have different degrees of tightening. Also, her emphasis can be placed on different places. For example, in some tights only the hips are modeled, in others - the stomach, sides, etc.
Why and for whom?
Besides thatslimming tights allow women to look slimmer, they create an image of a perfectly shaped legs and buttocks, a flat stomach. Such an element of clothing is worn not only in the cold and cool seasons, but also in summer. For example, in especially strict offices, even during the hot season, they require you to come to work in a strict skirt and tights.
Some older ladies use these products to hide unkempt heels and model imperfect legs. Tights even help to veil unsuccessful or unsuccessful self-tanning from prying eyes. It is actual to put them on in early spring, when the hands have already sunbathed, and the legs are still white. Also, oddly enough, despite the slight thickness of the product, it maintains heat. As statistics show, tights with a slimming effect are worn not only by curvy women. Young girls with a fragile figure are also trying to get closer to the ideal.
Types of tights
Stylists identify the main three types of modeling tights:
- supportive;
- contouring;
- corrective.
The first option makes sense to wear for those women who do not need maximum tightening. Here there is a gradient compression decreasing from bottom to top. The best are those models in which there is a tight top that allows you to slightly hide the stomach. This type of slimming tights also help to fight varicose veins and swelling of the legs, and have a massage effect. They can be worn every day for work and for a walk.
Contouring tights havea more severe degree of tension. Their peculiarity is that the product has certain zones of increased density. It remains only to choose the appropriate model to hide problem areas.
As for corrective tights, a lady can change a lot in them, even close people will not recognize her. So, wearing tights with a high waist, a woman can visually “throw off” a few kilograms. If the corrective zones are located in the hip area, then the so-called riding breeches will not be visible, and the semicircular inserts at the back will lift the buttocks, eliminating their “sagging” appearance.
Pay attention to the ingredients
If the choice still fell on tights that tighten the stomach, then you should definitely look at the composition. Almost all models cannot do without lycra - an elastic fiber of artificial origin. This component plays a major role: it perfectly adheres to the body, and also retains the original appearance of the product after multiple washes.
The presence of microfiber in the composition indicates the special strength of the product. These tights are soft, pleasant to the touch and durable. A thread called tactel makes them "breathable", that is, it allows air to pass through. It also adds a silky sheen, due to which the product takes on a more attractive presentation. If you look at the tights through the light and see no stripes, this is a clear sign of 3D weaving. It makes the thing more durable and elastic.
Effect on the body
According to doctors, any syntheticthing is not safe for the human body. And modeling products are no exception. In particular, high-waisted tights end almost under the bust. This suggests that they affect the legs and abdomen. The denser they are, the faster the greenhouse or “sauna” effect is created. Some ladies mistakenly think that this will help you lose weight faster. But the result can be far from positive: sweat combined with cosmetics and sebaceous secretions leads to the formation of diaper rash, skin inflammation and other troubles.
Fashion experts advise not to risk your he alth by wearing such clothes every day, but to use slimming knitwear. It will help achieve the same goals in a more “peaceful” and safer way. If, nevertheless, the outfit requires a combination with tights, then it is necessary to wear natural cotton underwear under them to limit the contact of your body with synthetics. Also, do not choose open-toed shoes or sandals for tights, as they can provoke rubbing of the feet.
