As the warmer months approach, Australian women are replacing their denim and bulky jackets for finer and lighter fabrics that often show a lot more lumps and bumps than they’re used to. To help women with this transition, Bella Bodies Shapewear has launched two new garments, in time for summer: the Body Slip and Body V – Summer, designed to provide women with total body confidence while keeping cool and comfortable.

The Body Slip contours the body until thigh length, reducing many women’s main areas of concern: the midriff, buttocks and lower hips. It’s ideal to wear under light, clingy dresses providing a firm and flawless look, but can also be worn as part of a layered ensemble. The Body Slip comes in black and latte and because of its interchangeable straps, the neckline can be reinvented from a scoop neck to a halter-neck, disguising well under virtually any outfit.
