One such brand claims its "tummy control panel" will smooth and flatten your problem belly area. News flash: If you displace 10 pounds of belly fat using an industrial strength spandex/denim blend, that fat has to go somewhere else. Most likely it will push that load upward, giving you a less-than-attractive third chin. Not a good look on anyone, I'm afraid. And then there are those jeans that claim to give your butt an added lift. I'm sorry, but my ass was not meant to hang over my waistband like an overflowing ice cream cone. I give kudos to one body-shaping jeans brand, though. These jeans simply repositioned the side seams giving the illusion of narrower hips. I appreciate the honesty here, though not the $100 price tag.
What really bothers me is the ads for these jeans feature skinny models. Hello? A size zero woman does not need a power mesh panty to smooth problem areas. Let's see a plus size gal wearing these jeans for a little truth in advertising, shall we? Of course that will never happen. Nobody wants to see a 200 pound woman with a faux third chin and butt overflowing her waistband. She may look like a the Michelin Man after a week-long binge, but at least her $100 jeans will look fabulous.
