The Benefits of Wearing Shapewear: A Boost for Confidence, Comfort, and Style

The Benefits of Wearing Shapewear: A Boost for Confidence, Comfort, and Style





In today’s world, where confidence and comfort go hand in hand with style, shapewear has become an essential tool for many women looking to enhance their silhouette. This month, Phatabulous Magazine features the inspiring Gena Lashay on our cover. Gena is not only a talented model and actress but also a model coach and the owner of Glamfit Shapewear, a brand dedicated to providing women with shapewear that meets their unique style, shape, and needs. In a recent Facebook Live interview, Gena shared her expert insights on how shapewear can transform not only your look but also your confidence.






According to Gena, when worn in the right size, shapewear can do wonders, offering a sleek, polished appearance while giving you that added boost of confidence. Here are some benefits she discussed that explain why shapewear can be a game-changer in your wardrobe:


1. A Polished, Confident Look


Shapewear smooths out the natural curves of the body, helping clothes fit more seamlessly. When Gena talks about shapewear’s ability to “transform your entire look,” she means that it can give you a more defined waist and add that extra touch of polish, making any outfit look impeccable.


2. Posture Support


Wearing shapewear can also support your posture, something that’s not often talked about. Properly fitted shapewear can subtly encourage better posture, providing gentle support to the back and core muscles. This benefit is particularly valuable for women who spend hours on their feet or sitting at a desk. Improved posture doesn’t just impact physical health—it can also boost confidence.


3. Waist Definition and Shaping


Many shapewear options, such as waist trainers, provide a level of definition that enhances your natural shape. Gena explained that with consistent wear, certain types of shapewear can actually help define and shape the waist. This aspect can be particularly appealing to those looking to enhance their curves while enjoying a more sculpted silhouette.





4. Variety for Everybody and Need


At Glamfit Shapewear, Gena’s mission is to ensure that every woman can find the right fit for her. She offers a variety of pieces that cater to different shapes, needs, and occasions. Whether you’re seeking full-body support or targeted shaping for specific areas, there’s a style that suits your preference.






During the interview, Phatabulous Magazine’s publisher, Candace Smith, also made an exciting announcement: the extension of Glamfit’s shapewear giveaway!

When the Mic Crosses the Line: The ASU Honey Beez, Joe Bullard, and the Fight for Respect BY Phatabulous Magazine Staff 10-5-2025 It was supposed to be another electric halftime show , the type of performance that makes HBCU culture shine. But what should’ve ended with applause and celebration turned into a moment that stunned thousands both in the stands and online. As the Alabama State University Honey Beez, a nationally recognized plus-size dance team, exited the field after their energetic performance against Florida A&M University, FAMU’s longtime band announcer Joe Bullard took the mic and made a comment that has since echoed far beyond the stadium: “The new face of Ozempic.” The remark, referencing a popular weight loss drug, drew audible gasps from the crowd.

Ask Candace - Why Do I Still Struggle To Love My Body?

Ask Candace Is Back - #2 There’s something powerful about questions that linger. A while back, we invited readers to write in, about love, bodies, confidence, boundaries, and the quiet thoughts that don’t always make it into group chats. The responses came. Some arrived quickly. Others trickled in over time. And a few sat with me for a while, waiting for the right moment. That moment is now. Ask Candace was always meant to be a space where honesty could breathe. Not perfection. Not performance. Just real conversations about navigating life in a body, and a world, that often has too many opinions. Since our last column, so much has shifted. Bodies are being policed again. Thinness is being repackaged as “wellness.” Dating feels heavier. Many of us are healing, unlearning, starting over, and redefining confidence on our own terms. So we’re bringing Ask Candace back, not because I have all the answers, but because sometimes what we need most is to be reminded that we’re not alone, not bro...

When Jokes Cross the Line - What Cardi B's Comments Really Reveal

When Jokes Cross the Line What Cardi B's Comments Really Reveal Phatabulous Magazine Staff Growing up, I was always the fat one. There were other girls with my name, but I was always described as “the short fat one.” I hated it. I never got so used to it that I was okay with it, I just learned not to lash out every time. Most of the time, I let it go because I realized people weren’t trying to get a rise out of me. Maybe they didn’t know. Maybe they didn’t care. But the truth is, it always hurt. That’s why when Cardi B, one of the most recognizable celebrities in the world, made recent comments that many found fatphobic, it struck a nerve. While speaking with fans online about her WWE t-shirts selling out, Cardi joked: “The box sets are completely sold out, especially because you fat fks — clearly you guys are fat as fk, no Chick-fil-A for y’all.” She went on to say: “Now, knowing that my fans is fat, I can’t even make fun of fat people no more. Don’t call me fatphobic, y’all, ’cau...
