A garment to provide targeted training of small muscles along a spine of a user. The garment can be configured to extend around a torso of a user from an upper end portion to a lower end portion. A plurality of weights can be distributed and arranged along the body. The body and the plurality of weights can be configured to conform to the fleshy part of a user's body and to provide deep touch pressure compression of the plurality of weights to the torso to target the small postural muscles supporting the spine of a user when worn by the user, to engage and train the small postural muscles of the spine. The plurality of weights can be movable relative to one another with movement of the vertebrae of the user's spine, and the weights can be configured to move in a corresponding motion with the vertebrae of the user.

The present invention provides an easy settable stretch fabric comprising three types of yarns: a rigid fiber, an elastic fiber, and a low-melt fiber, wherein the low-melt fiber comprises low-melt polymer which can be fused in the temperature between 60? C. to 200? C., being higher than the temperature used for normal textile process and household laundry, but lower than the temperature used for heat setting elastic fiber. The low-melt fiber can be selected from a group of fibers made from modified polyester, nylon, and polypropylene and the copolymer from them in the form of staple or filament.

A shape enhancing garment which is formed from a base layer and one or more inner compressive layers for applying pressure at least to an inner thigh area to urge inner thigh leg tissue away from the inner thigh; wherein the one or more inner compressive layers comprise a non-circumferential layer; wherein the non-circumferential layer is a non-stretch layer and reduces thigh chafing.

The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, an undergarment that includes a pant body having an anterior knit region having a first knitting pattern, a posterior knit region having the first knitting pattern, a first lateral knit region having a second knitting pattern different from the first knitting pattern, extending between the anterior knit region and the posterior knit region, and a second lateral knit region having the second knitting pattern, extending between the anterior knit region and the posterior knit region, and a gusset panel having the second knitting pattern, extending between an entirety of the anterior knit region and the posterior knit region.

The present application relates to shapewear garments, and particularly shapewear garments including multiple zones having varying layers, varying compressions, varying shapes, and/or varying temperature controls.

Disclosed herein are garments for lifting and concealing loose and/or saggy skin and methods for using the same. In one aspect, the garment includes at least one garment support portion configured to lift and hold a wearer's loose skin, the garment support portion comprising a plurality of support panels, each support panel having an interior surface and exterior surface, a first edge and second edge, the plurality of support panels being configured to adjustably secure the garment support portion to a portion of a wearer's body. Also disclosed herein are methods for using the disclosed garments.

The present invention relates to a crossover maternity panel that may be attached to any lower garment worn throughout pregnancy and post-partum body changes. The crossover maternity panel may be a belly panel comprised of a single piece of fabric or multiple pieces connected with seams, and wrap around from the front to the back of the wearer. The portions may overlap in the back of the wearer as they decrease in height to create a crossover triangular section that provides support to the lumbar region of the wearer. The crossover maternity panel may be attached to any lower garment such as a pant, short, skirt, skort, or the like. The flexible and stretchable material of the crossover maternity panel allows the wearer to have support for the enlarged belly, support for increased pressure and laxity on the wearer's sacroiliac joints and lower back, as well as comfort and mobility.

A swimwear apparatus is provided. The swimwear apparatus may include an upper portion having an upper base layer and an upper bikini layer, and a lower portion having a lower base layer and a lower bikini layer. The upper bikini layer may be configured to be removably attached to the upper base layer, and the lower bikini layer may be configured to be removably attached to the lower base layer.

A swimwear apparatus is provided. The swimwear apparatus may include an upper portion having an upper base layer and an upper bikini layer, and a lower portion having a lower base layer and a lower bikini layer. The upper bikini layer may be configured to be removably attached to the upper base layer, and the lower bikini layer may be configured to be removably attached to the lower base layer.

An improved corset structure of a half-body type, capable of extending to the thigh. A reinforcing structure is provided in the corset in contact with the private part of a user. The reinforcing structure includes a first zipper, that can be opened for the user to urinate; and two second zippers, each disposed on a side of the first zipper. The second zippers are used to increase width of the reinforcing structure, while rigidity of the second zipper is the same as the first zipper. As such, the second zippers are able to support the first zipper, and prevent it from getting inward to the private parts of the user when the user making movements, and the ensuing discomfort to the user.
