A lower torso garment, such as a brief, includes a body having a pair of leg openings, a crotch portion between the leg openings, and a waist opening, and a waist band connected to the body and positioned at the waist opening. The waist band includes a folded fabric portion forming an inner layer and an outer layer surrounding an elastomeric band. The elastomeric band includes a thermoplastic elastomer film including a styrenic block copolymer, and is positioned between the inner and outer layers.

Disclosed herein are flocked shapewear garments. The flocked shapewear garments comprise a fabric, an elastomeric coating, and flocking fibers embedded in the elastomeric coating.

A garment incorporates shape memory alloy, either in shape memory or super-elastic states, an accelerometer, a power source, a microprocessor, and an algorithm implemented by the microprocessor to learn and adapt to the displacement pattern of the wearer's body during a physical activity. The shape memory alloy is in the form of SMA or super-elastic wires integrated into portions of the garment, whereby activating the wire(s) shortens the corresponding wire to produce a compressive force on the wearer's body within the garment. The system thereby provides real-time, active suspension to control breast displacement, jiggle or bounce. The system provides real-time feedback to a memory or super-elastic material integrated into the garment to provide adaptive force and displacement to counteract the push-off and landing forces at each footfall of the moving wearer affecting displacement of the body.

A corset or lingerie item features and improved dual level tightening system which allows a wearer to apply the corset or lingerie item without the assistance of another person by the inclusion of a rear cinching, dual level improved tightening system that operates to tighten the corset or lingerie item around the lower torso from the front of the garment, adjusted by the wearer to a suitable level of comfort level determined by the wearer, the dual level tightening system providing lower torso support and a slenderizing effect while not restricting general lumbar movement and flexibility.

The present disclosure reveals pants with an attached wrap for weight loss and toning one's body. The wrap being comprised of an elastic material that is either impermeable or permeable with pores, wherein the permeable material would allow air to pass through the pores and water, sweat, or other material to pass through or be absorbed into the pores. The wrap may further comprise an absorbent band to absorb sweat.
