The present disclosure provides a garment having an interior surface which is specially adapted to hold crystals and other objects with healing properties against the skin of a user. This may be achieved either by having a plurality of mesh pocket pouches disposed on the interior surface, or by a plurality of mounting points each configured to receive an adapter with the crystal held therein. An adapter comprising a holding cup with a layer of adhesive for attaching a crystal and a hook and loop surface for mounting to such a garment is therefore also provided herein.

The spandex abdominal-lifting corset is a clothing garment designed to give an attractive shape to the body by constricting the waist and lower abdomen while worn. This invention varies from other waist trainers in its ability to lift the buttocks and flatten the upper pubic area and stomach. The corset consists of two nearly independent articles connected by a common attachment to the frontal lacing: the main abdominal article and the waist belt. The main abdominal article is held up by two slim shoulder straps and rests primarily from slightly above the waist to the pubic region. The aptly named waist belt rests on the waist. The frontal lacing may be tightened or loosed to the wearer's liking and is tied at the top.
