Rago Shapewear

Introducing Plus Size Shapewear from Rago

Rago are an American manufacturer of ‘Shapewear’ (or ‘Foundation Underwear’) who have been designing and marketing shapewear garments since 1945, hence their depth of experience and expertise is unparalleled. It’s fair to say that there are many shapewear brands available today but absolutely none of them can match the quality and performance of Rago products!

The secret is in the construction of the garments. Only the finest materials are used and this is allied to expert design both of which together will guarantee the wearer ‘No roll’ as well as ‘No ride up’. Yet at the same time, all of the products in their range are easy on the eye and comfortable all day long.

There are also some beautiful colours available such as the red/black on the Open Crotch Body Briefer.


Many of the Rago innovations such as the flexible boning, circle bonds and tummy shaping panel have become an industry standard when it comes to designing women’s shapewear.

They have an extensive range of underwear garments ranging from small all the way up to 15X which is a UK 36 dress size, so there is a garment for every woman, whatever her age, shape or dress size. Products range from open or closed crotch panty girdles to Body Briefers, Bras, Suspender Belts and much more!

Here’s an example of a Long Leg Panty Girdle



If you do require a Garter Belt why not have one that shapes your hips and tummy at the same time?!

Here’s a good option - The 4 strap Control Suspender Belt.


All Rago girdles come with a carefully constructed tummy panel which as well as holding you in shape also has invisible flat seams that provide a smooth finish which will not be seen through your clothing and yet are also incredibly comfortable to wear.

The Classic Open Bottom Girdle is a good example of this.


The woven elastic and flat sewing also combine to ensure that your shaping underwear still looks good and keeps you in great shape, wash after wash. This is often a problem for products manufactured in Europe and especially the Far East.

Also note the flexible support structure and power shaping bands which will enhance your natural curves and give you body confidence all day long.

In the Rago range of foundation garments you can choose from light or firm control whatever suits your dress requirements. The lighter garments are made with a more flexible material that offers a 4 way stretch and will feel like a gentle massage on your body whilst wearing. The firmer garments on the other hand, offer a more robust shaping garment but that which is equally supportive and comfortable.

Here’s the ‘firm control’ Body Briefer with closed crotch.


Here’s a guide to the level of body control & support that Rago shapewear will offer you.

Light Control – As the name suggests a very light & gentle touch with no panels. Think of high denier pair of tights and this will give you an idea.

Medium Control – A smooth finish with only a moderate amount of compression and shaping.

Firm Control – Classic Shapewear that gives support and shape to problem areas of your body which will have a slimming effect on your silhouette.   

Extra Firm Control – The greatest level of control and shaping that supports specific problem areas with compression.
