A Tale of Two Slips
Not too long ago, I discovered a long lost piece of lingerie from way back, a body shaping slip bought about twenty years ago. Yet ever since that moment of rediscovery and, let’s face it, somewhat sadly reliving my teenage crossdressing days, I’ve become obsessed with this particular piece of lovely lingerie.
Normally, I’m not really into shapewear. More often than not it is just a garment with all kinds of weird tight stretchy panels looking like a bathing suit your grandma once wore proudly. Nothing really sexy to them in my eyes anyway and, therefore, I never really kept up with the trends of shaping.
Yet the trends brought us to the age of Spanx, which really looks similar to those ultra modern swimsuits used in the Olympics. Still not something I’d go for when I want something sexy to throw on with my pantyhose to feel nice and girly (or cheap).
Throwing on that now-vintage Flexees shaping slip, however, changed my whole impression of shapewear for the time being.
