ABSTRACT:
An undergarment is disclosed having a front fabric panel and a back fabric panel fixed together to form an undergarment having a hollow tubular shape. The undergarment is open at a top end to define an open waist opening and open at a bottom end to define an open hip opening. The front fabric panel has a width longer than a width of the back fabric panel. An elastic waist band having a width of at least one and one-half inches is disposed around the circumference of the waist opening. The elastic waist band has an elasticity effective to constrain and shape the waistline of a wearer. A pair of elastic leg straps are disposed at the hip opening. Each elastic leg strap has a first end fixed to the front fabric panel and a second end fixed to the back fabric panel. The pair of elastic leg straps are disposable during use between legs and around a crotch area of a user, so that each elastic leg strap extends from the front fabric panel, between the legs of the user, around the crotch area of the user and to the back fabric panel to retain the undergarment at a position against a waist and a mid-section of the user. An elastic hip band is disposed around a circumference of the hip opening for co-acting with the front fabric panel, the back fabric panel and the elastic waist band to shape the waist and mid-section of the user.
