The Met Gala always gives us something to talk about, from dramatic silhouettes and bold necklines to the kind of fashion moments that feel larger than life.
On EXTRA’s Met Gala recap, Brand Director and Fashion Expert Gabrielle Richards revealed the Shapermint essentials that help bold, fashion-forward looks fit more comfortably, look smoother, and feel even more wearable.
Because as striking as those outfits are, what sits underneath them matters more than people think: a strapless style looks better when the bra actually stays in place, a lower neckline feels more flattering when the shape underneath is smooth and supportive, and when you have the right base layer on, fitted pieces look more polished and feel a lot easier to wear.
And while most of us are not dressing for the Met Gala, we are getting dressed for plenty of moments where we still want to look and feel our best, from work and errands to brunch, dinner, and special occasions.
Loved by more than 12 million customers and backed by over 200,000 5-star reviews, Shapermint’s comfortable shaping essentials have become go-to base layers for women who want support, smoothing, and real comfort. For EXTRA viewers, the featured styles are now 20% OFF with code EXTRA20. Watch the segment HERE.

Comfort is Just as Important as Support
A look can be dramatic, sleek, or fashion-forward, but it still has to feel good once it’s on. The right bra helps a neckline sit the way it should, the right shaping layer helps fabric fall more smoothly, and the whole outfit feels easier the moment you stop adjusting it.
If comfort and support matter just as much as the final look to you, explore Shapermint’s wireless bras, shapewear camis, smoothing shorts, and more, available in sizes S-4XL.
