this lace bodysuit is outstanding in a supporting role

What does it take to prep a starlet for awards season—besides an army of stylists, dermatologists, makeup artists, trainers, and nutritionists? The answer: shapewear. Even the twiggiest nominee will be pouring herself into a contouring undergarment for this weekend's Golden Globes. Most are bland nude tubes, which is why Yummie Tummie's lace bodysuit caught our attention. A waist-minimizing panel and underwire design provide figure-flattering support, but the chicer-than-most onesie can stand alone as lingerie (which just happens to be one of the trends of Spring 2010). Every woman should have one in her arsenal, even if the closest most of us will ever come to a photographers' pit is seeing one on TV.
