SHAPESHIFTERS

check out the round-up of the latest and greatest shape enhancing, defining and even calorie burning products to make their way across our editors’ desks this month.
Check out the round-up of the latest and greatest shape enhancing, defining and even calorie burning products to make their way across our editors’ desks this month.
ShaToBu is the latest addition to a market full of gear that promises to do the workout for you. Although the best solution is obviously to get off your butt and work out, this touts itself as the The Workout You Wear™ and is the first-ever shaper that shapes, tones your thighs, hips and butt muscles and burns more calories while you move throughout your day. Note: This doesn’t mean wear while you work out, rather wear on a regular day. www.shatobu.com
Body Rock by Kelly Dooley are not your average sports bras. The debut collection features 4 designs called Lock ’em Down; Keep ’em In; Show ’em Off and Zip ’em Up. They feature pockets for iPod nano, keys, fob tags plus they make your tatas look good! www.bodyrocksport.com
Although not new to the market, lululemon’s tried and true collection of workout gear wears amazingly wash after wash and is instant shape shifters, giving curves where they don’t exist. Plus they are full of innovative perks like iPod holders, ventilation, air wicking and more! The neon speed short is lightweight and its wicking swift fabric with 4-way stretch keeps you dry. lululemon in Highland Village
Hip-T is genius and should have been around when crack was all we were seeing with all those lo-rise jeans. Luckily jeans have gone higher, but sometimes shirts are still a tad too short. Slip on a Hip-T in a variety of prints and solids to extend your too short tee and cover all your “assets” from top to bottom. Or wear around hips to diminish the muffin top. You can even pull it up around chest to cover up your front side while wearing a low-cut top. www.myhip-t.com
Tommy John Second Skin Collection – created by Tom Patterson in the search to find the perfect men’s t-shirt. Tom asked regular guys to share thoughts on t-shirts and paired the information with intense study on all the top brands which included turning shirts inside out, measuring proportions, comfort, flexibility. The result? Tailored Stretch Technology™ which ensures a better fit with no bunching. The shirts don’t yellow after one wear or shrink after one wash, and they fit like second skin. No, these aren’t Spanx for men, but they are essentially the perfect T. Available at Neiman Marcus.
