The Proenza Schouler FW2022 collection places a focus on luxurious, fashion-forward shapewear. Rather than creating shapewear that is intended to be worn under clothes as a type of underwear, Proenza Schouler creates shapewear that doubles as a high-class outfit.
The items showcased during the label's FW2022 runway show include skirts, midi dresses, maxi dresses, suits, and more avant-garde outfits that go beyond what is typically considered to be shapewear. The pieces place emphasis on shaping different parts of the body based on which type of clothing is being worn. For example, the suits tightly hug the wearer's waist and chest, while the dresses focus on shaping the wearer's hips.
The items in the Proenza Schouler FW2022 shapewear collection begin at $750 USD.
