I'm not Sold...

I'm one of those people that flip through the same magazine several of times throughout the day, week and year! With every flip through a different season or weight gain/loss I see something that for some reason it didn't catch my eye the first time around. As a stylist and a personal self critique when it comes to my own appearance I am most concerned with fit and how to manipulate clothes so they work with my personality and lifestyle.
My most recent mag ravish was People Style Watch a good magazine that turns high fashion into our closet. It also makes editorial images and celebrity dressing more accessible. I spotted this Shoulder Bra top on page 68 and thought it was a genius idea until I went to the shapefx.com website.
Now why is it that a Size A cup model and Size 0/2 model are showcasing how a shapewear works? I want to see a woman with my issues, big problematic DD cups, heavy hips on a smaller waist that's not so small because of that annoying roll in the back. A model conveying such issues would really help sell shapewear to the avg woman who needs the guide! And if the bra is supposed to enhance.... I'm not convinced of that either. Why is it that the part of the bra that connects the shoulder cap to the bra cup is so far from the skin? It looks like its the type of strap that would keep falling off the shoulders which defeats the whole point!
I'm not convinced! We need to test this one out!
