These past few Fashion Week seasons Spanx has taken over a suite in the Bryant Park Hotel to showcase their latest offerings. This time it was particularly exciting because in addition to their just-launched swim collection, they were previewing their Men’s Spanx which are now available for pre-order and will be hitting Neiman Marcus exclusively on March 15. While I don’t wear any of the full-body coverage or cami Spanx, I’m a big fan of their tights (I swear by Falke, but they rip easily. Spanx is way more durable), and I wear their bras every time I go to the gym. I know most people wear their bras to make their chest pop, but I actually wear them to keep everything secure and in place (I’m only a 32B so there’s not too much to keep in place, but still when you’re running…). Sure I could wear a sports-bra, but the Spanx ones are just as comfortable and they’re infinitely more flattering! As for the men’s Spanx that I previewed, they look just like your average men’s undershirts, but when you feel them they feel just like a Spanx cami. I went to the preview with a male friend and he couldn’t wait to try on one of the tees, so there’s definitely a market for these out there (many men are just as insecure as we are about their tummies!). The collection consists of three styles of cotton compression tops all of which are
meant to firm chests, flatten stomachs, improve postures, and support
lower backs.
What do you think about Spanx for men?
