After more than 15 years as a successful fashion designer and stylist for the likes of Sean “Diddy” Combs and Beyoncé, Heather Thomson launched Yummie Tummie and set about making supremely comfy shapewear. With a passion for innovation, Thomson — whom you might recognize from Real Housewives of New York City — has created a line of intimates, ready-to-wear, and denim constructed from comfortable yet high-tech fabrics. Her patented three-section body contouring tank tops, which use groundbreaking double-weave fabrics to lift, shape, and smooth the midsection, are beloved by women of all shapes and sizes. Yummie Tummie’s compact cotton shaping leggings, Nylon Nina shaping shortie and other designs come in a range of versatile shades, from basic black to neutral hues.
