tummy control
Waistline smoothing feature
Tummy control describes a feature in clothing—typically underwear, shapewear, swimsuits, or pants—designed to compress and smooth the midsection.
The fabric is usually firmer or more elastic around the belly area: These leggings have a tummy control panel.
The term belongs to marketing and fashion rather than technical garment construction.
