Spanx

Body-shaping compression garments

Spanx is a brand of shapewear—tight-fitting undergarments designed to compress and smooth the body's contours under clothing.

The brand name has become nearly generic for such garments: I need to wear my Spanx under this dress.

The compression targets areas like the stomach, thighs, and buttocks to create a slimmer silhouette.
