What Changed When the Straps Stopped Digging
"I always avoided shapewear tanks because the straps dug into my shoulders and my bra bulge looked worse by noon. Then I wore the U-shape one under a blouse for a full workday — and I never had to adjust the straps once. My bra line stayed smooth through meetings and coffee runs, and by the time I got home I still wasn't yanking at it. That U-shape tank is the only one that's ever stayed put."
