Body Shaper e816
Body Shaper e816
This easy to construct, reversible body shaper has only two pattern pieces. Sewing a center back seam, leg insert seam and waistline seam is all it takes to makes this great body shaper. The waistline sits 2” above the natural waistline and the legs are 6” or so above the knee. The seam allowances are sandwiched in-between the two layers, so a smooth fit is achieved on both sides.
Note: This pattern is Multi-sized 8-24 (rather than the usual 4-22)

Making it a shaper or smoother, self-lined or reversible. Having a variety in your wardrobe allows you to have the perfect one for all of your shaping and smoothing needs!
We thought that the easiest way to explain how you can work with the fabric and pattern pairing would be to show you. By selecting the right fabric for each side of this reversible piece, you can create a wide variety of shapers and smoothers.
SUGGESTED FABRICS: Power mesh, cotton/ LYCRA jersey, rayon, bamboo and modal/ LYCRA jersey. Fabrics need at least 60% stretch, both lengthwise and crosswise grain. The more % of stretch the better, and the snappier the recovery of the fabric the more shaping it will accomplish.
Make it reversible for double use - with one layer of smooth, slippery fabric for use under pants to allow freedom of movement and the other a dryer hand, matte finish fabric to keep skirts from twisting!
This pattern is also great for exercise or bike shorts. Since it is self lined you can use a cool, absorbent fabric for the inner layer and a durable, quality fashion fabric for the outer layer!
