Bella Bodies Shapewear

Women have long attempted to improve, sculpt or otherwise adapt their natural body shape by using garments such as corsets and girdles to disguise unwanted bulges around the waist, thighs, tummy and bottom. Originally, these body slimmer garments were made from heavy-weight fabrics and were constructed with metal or whale-bone stays to offer the support and slimming effect that the wearer desired.

Unsurprisingly, the typical Edwardian or Victorian corset was far from comfortable we've all seen the period films where girls are laced into a garment so tight that they can hardly breathe! Although underwear design has changed quite dramatically over the decades, up until recently, women who wanted to feel confident and in control of their curves had little option than to suffer for their beauty in restrictive foundation garments. Then Michel Schumacher had an idea, and in July 2006 launched the innovative shapewear brand Bella Bodies.

Bella Bodies - An Australian Brand

Although modern shapewear had been available for some time, Michel Schumacher felt that there was still more that could be done to make body slimmer underwear which would help women to achieve the body shape they desired and feel good too and so Bella Bodies Shapewear was born. Bella Bodies became the first Australian brand to offer body shaping underwear designed for fashion, comfort and support, and all at affordable prices. Since the launch of the brand, the ground-breaking Bella Bodies Shapewear collection has been featured in magazines and newspapers including Cosmopolitan Bride, Woman's Day and The Sunday Mail, as well as on TV. From the beginning, what set Bella Bodies apart from other shapewear brands was the use of state of the art fabric and construction, with designs which retain their shape throughout the day, yet are lightweight enough to wear in our warmer climate. The range continues to expand as Bella Bodies strive to offer a greater variety of options for those looking to buy womens underwear which will make them look as good on the outside as they feel on the inside.
