The best tummy-control underwear, at a glance
I have a real love-hate relationship with the best tummy-control underwear. When it works, it works—smoothing, sculpting, and seamless under jeans, skirts, and wedding-guest dresses. But when it doesn’t, I’m counting the minutes until I can yank it off, whether it’s rolling, digging in, or just plain uncomfortable. The best tummy control underwear should feel like a second skin, giving you shape and support where you want it without the telltale panty lines or constant need to readjust.
While no one needs tummy control underwear, it makes me feel more confident and helps define my shape in fitted clothes. There are all kinds of styles to choose—high-waisted briefs, seamless thongs, shorts, bodysuits—and in varying levels of compression. You’ll find undies that are light and comfortable enough for everyday wear or shapewear for women that’s firm enough to create an hourglass figure. Below, I’ve rounded up the best tummy-control underwear I’ve tested, as well as other favorites from Glamour editors, reviewers, and contributors.
How we chose tummy-control underwear
To find the best tummy-control underwear, we researched bestsellers from top retailers and analyzed user reviews to narrow down more than two dozen highly rated styles. Over six weeks, we tested each pair for material, fit, and overall comfort.
Our testers wore each style for hours to assess whether it provided firm yet comfortable enough support without rolling down, digging in, or feeling restrictive. They moved through daily activities—walking, sitting, climbing stairs, and light exercise—to evaluate how well the underwear stayed in place and maintained its shaping effect. We considered breathability, moisture-wicking properties, and whether the fabric retained its compression throughout the day. We assessed how supportive each piece was for various activities (including working out, errand-running, and special occasions), if it showed visible panty lines, and how easy it was to take on and off. Lastly, we considered how expensive and high-quality the underwear was and how diverse its sizing and offered colors.
This rigorous testing process helped us identify tummy-control underwear that smooths and supports while remaining comfortable for all-day wear.

Skims’ thongs come in the biggest range of skin tones we’ve found, with an especially high waist and that no-show thong cut that avoids visible panty lines. They’re some of the best plus-size tummy-control underwear on this list and can fit hips up to 59 inches around.
“I tend to stay away from high-waist underwear or swimwear. Thongs already have a tendency to ride up, so the thought of wearing a high-waist one was initially a huge no. But after trying so many of Skims’ other Fits Everybody styles, I figured why not?” says Glamour contributor Andrea Navarro. “This thong is just as comfortable as the rest of the collection because it’s stretchy, soft, and nearly seamless. There’s absolutely no digging involved.” Many reviewers recommend sizing down if you prefer a more sculpted fit.

Spanx’s shaping briefs (formerly named Thinstincts 2.0 briefs) average out all of the qualities you might seek in a pair of tummy-control underwear for an occasion. They’re made of a Lycra spandex that wraps around and sucks in the waist, covering the belly button and giving you full butt coverage. The high-rise, high-compression undies dry quickly (in case you sweat) and have a luxe silky sheen to them that’s decidedly dressier than most other shapewear for tummy control.
“When I entered the wedding-guest-dress era of my life, I needed a slimming solution that I could wear for hours, and that’s not a thong because I hate thongs,” says Griggs. “I like the boy shorts style but wanted undies that wouldn’t show in any way under thinner materials like silk (or under tighter pants). These Spanx briefs became my go-to. They’re high-waisted enough to suck in my midsection and don’t ride up in the back or roll down, thanks to grippy silicone edges. I can’t say the same for a lot of other tummy-control panties. They’re a little challenging to pull off and on, but they definitely work and stay seamless under my outfits.”
- Style: High-waist briefs
- Material: 55% nylon, 45% Lycra elastane; 100% cotton gusset
- Sizing: XS (34- to 36-inch hips) to 3X (51- to 54-inch hips)
- Compression: Medium
- Colors: 3 options (cafe au lait, black, champagne beige,)

Shapermint High-Waist Shaper Shorts
- What we love: Size-inclusive; machine washable; great postpartum option
- Worth noting: Thick fabric shows through some jeans, specifically on the thighs
We’re already big fans of Shapermint’s midthigh bodysuit, but it’s not always your best choice to wear under strappy or strapless dresses and tops. Enter these super-high-waist boy shorts, which are thigh-controlling and contoured but not too tight. Silicone grips keep the bands from budging. They’re only $30, but we found that after four weeks of testing, these were lightly compressive and the elastic band along the waistline offered slight contouring and smoothing under dresses. The shorts are easy to slip on and off, prevent thigh chafing, and are comfortable and supportive enough over the belly for pregnant women.
Our tester said the anti-slip design was one of the best of the bunch too. “I’ve never been big on shapewear shorts, because I always felt like the top would roll down, but these stayed in place through a three-hour event,” says our tester.
- Style: High-waist, mid-thigh shorts
- Material: 90% nylon, 10% spandex
- Sizing: S (33- to 34-in. hips) to 4X (61.5- to 64-in. hips)
- Compression: Light
- Colors: 5 options (black, chocolate, latte, sand, nude)

Yitty Nearly Naked Ultra High Waist Booty Lift Shorts
- What we love: Silicone grip prevents rolling; compression all around; dedicated shaping panels in the back
- Worth noting: Tough to take on and off
These shorts from Lizzo’s shapewear brand give all-around compression, especially in the rear. The backside is designed with paneling that cradles and lifts the booty. They’re pretty seamless under all sorts of clothes—silk skirts, dresses, jeans. There’s interlocking fabric at the gusset, so you can use the bathroom without shimmying out of the whole piece.
Our tester says that, despite this feature, the shorts were tricky to pull on and off. Still, they were quite comfortable. “I wore these out to dinner for a few hours and felt confident in my outfit without feeling totally squeezed or pinched,” she says. Also worth major points? The sizing for different body types—the shorts can accommodate hips up to 62 inches, which is the widest allowance on this list.
- Style: High-waist shorts
- Material: 52% recycled nylon, 34% nylon, 14% elastane
- Sizing: XS (36- to 39-in. hips) to 5X (58- to 62-in. hips)
- Compression: Medium
- Colors: 6 options (taupe, brown, black, beige, lavender, red)

They’re super supportive without squeezing too tight, and since they’re lighter than most of the options I tried (and moisture-wicking too), I can wear them all day without feeling hot and bothered. As someone who isn’t a fan of high compression, these give me the perfect held-in feeling while still allowing me (and my booty) to breathe!

Your tummy-control underwear questions, answered
What are the benefits of tummy-control underwear?
“Depending on the style, tummy-control underwear can contour and support the booty, plus shape and smooth the waist and tummy areas of the body,” say Gabrielle Richards, brand director of Shapermint. Lighter-control undies are excellent at acting as a base layer for clothes to seamlessly glide over for a more streamlined appearance, notes Jane Newman, the chief design officer for Hanes Brands, Inc.. Styles with ultra-firm control flatten the waist under clingier, more tightly fitted clothing. Your basic undies can do none of these things.
What are the different types of tummy-control underwear?
There are various styles of tummy-control underwear—a blessing, since some of us are bikini girlies and some of us swear by thongs. The most popular shaping panty options include briefs, thongs, and shaping shorts that come in high- and mid-rise waistlines and different thigh lengths. You’ll also find all-in-one jumpsuits and body shapers that have built-in bras, camisoles, open busts, butt-lifting, and waist-cinching features. Looking for even more support? They make tummy-control swimsuits and jeans for tummy support too.
How to shop for tummy-control underwear
How you shop for tummy-control underwear depends on the level of support you want and how you intend to wear them. Here are the three levels of compression, says Richards:
Low compression (smoothing): Hoping to find some undies you can easily wear every day to smooth out your midsection and hips under your favorite jeans or leggings? Briefs and thongs with a wide high-waist band and light control are usually your most comfortable options.
Medium compression (shape-enhancing): This in-between level enhances your curves and gives you a little contouring while remaining breathable and stretchy enough that you can move for hours.
High compression (sculpting): Looking for that snatched waistline under a wedding-guest dress? This level of compression is ideal for a special occasion and more formal, structured clothing like evening gowns and cocktail dresses. Opt for high-waist briefs, thongs, shorts, or a butt-lifting bodysuit that have this toned, supported feel.
How to size yourself for tummy-control underwear
You can use your normal pants and underwear size as a guide for the tummy-control undies size you choose, but be open to experimenting with different styles and silhouettes to find the right level of support for you. To be more precise, use a cloth measuring tape to measure your hips and waist for a more precise size. Pro tip: Spend some time in the comments section of the product to see how other shoppers recommend sizing.
