spanx/undergarments

Ok, the last thing I need is some spanx or something like that . What I need is hard to find, because my dress has a keyhole back, so it cant come up to high but I still need full front coverage and something with some firm control to suck me in!!

Do you guys know where I can go ? I've tried Macys and Nordstroms and I dont want to get anything online. Thanks!

I don't know how close you are to Eastern Suffolk County but Blum's in Patchogue has a great selection of Spanx!!!

I almost need like a suit, that has a bra but dips down in the back. The natrual waist will give me a muffin top. :(

Im in massapequa... theres gotta be a speciality shop somewhere!

you can try georgette's in hicksville...i got a strapless suck it in thing there but it didn't have a low back. its worth a shot though since they are a specialty shop. good luck!

there is also mary's in woodbury which isn't too far away but i've never been myself.

estelle's in farmingdale has some spanx too.

macy's in roosevelt field has quite a large selection as well - did you try that macy's?

anyway, good luck!!

I don't know if Spanx specifically makes something like you're looking for... it sounds like you want a full body shaper with cups and a low back? While SPanx are amazing, they don't have a lot of structure on their own, KWIM? It sounds like what you need is going to be something stiffer than what Spanx makes. If anyone is going to have a shaper like that, it's Blum's. I'd definitely make the trip there. Or at least call them and describe what you want to see if they have it or can order it for you in time.

Re: spanx/undergarments

PS, can it have straps or no? Cause I was assuming you were looking for something strapless, but IDK.

Also, did you look online and find a picture of something that will work? Cause you could always go to Blum's or Georgette's with the photo to see if they have something similar.

Re: spanx/undergarments

Sorry to post a hundred times but... did you have your dress fitted without a body shaper? Because wearing one now might change how it fits.... might wind up making it too big... those things REALLY suck you in, they can take you down almost a full size sometimes!

Re: spanx/undergarments

it prob won't be too helpful right now for your situation but fyi to everyone...target has this brand called Assets and they are made by spanx brand and they only cost between $12-18. Pretty decent quality bc ive washed and worn them a bunch of times and so far so good.

I called them and they told me they have nothing like what I need. Thank you so much though!

Something like this woul work well if I could take the straps off and use fashion tape to hold it up. I tried macys at roosevelt field. I'll call around to some other places you guys listed. Thank you!

I think what you would need to wear is a low back bra converter:

Something like this

and then also a pair of spanx on the bottom.

I got the best spanx ever at Walmart. You can try there? Also, maybe Mary's Corsetiere in Woodbury?

This!! I went to Blum's this past weekend and they were very attentive and helpful. They've been around forever and really know their stuff.

Go to Georgettes in Hicksville and explain the situation -- they should have something to help!!
