This is a high-compression garment. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger one. The chart shows body measurements, not garment measurements.

What it is:
A Colombian-style stage-2 compression bodysuit with a built-in bra, mid-thigh leg and open bust support. Firm through the waist and tummy, lifting through the hips, soft at the seams.

Closures:
Front zipper with a row of inner hooks behind it (double closure — the hooks take the strain, the zip glides). Zipper crotch so you never take it off to use the bathroom.

Bra:
Flexible unpadded cups that adapt to your cup size, adjustable and removable shoulder straps.

Lift:
Shaped hip panels lift with fabric tension — no foam pads, nothing to shift or show through.

Leg:
Mid-thigh with a stretch lace hem and anti-slip silicone so it never rolls up under a dress.

Fabric:
Powernet outer, soft cotton-blend inner lining against the skin. Breathable, invisible under fitted clothing.

Care:
Hand wash cold. Do not bleach, tumble dry, iron or dry clean.

Shipping times: 7-10 days

vela feat black

The faja you can put on by yourself

Every faja that actually works is firm enough to be a two-person job. Vela moves the closure to the front and splits it in two: a row of inner hooks takes the tension, then the zipper glides up over them with no strain. Step in, hook, zip — standing in your own bathroom, in under two minutes.

vela zones

Three zones. One garment.

Bust: flexible unpadded cups and adjustable straps, so it holds without a second bra.

Waist and tummy: 360° powernet compression from under the bust to the hip — the part you see in the mirror first.

Hips: shaped panels that lift with fabric tension. No foam pads, nothing to shift or show through leggings.

vela back black

Stays put. All day. Under anything.

The two things that ruin shapewear are a hem that rides up and a bathroom trip that means undressing. Vela finishes at mid-thigh in stretch lace with anti-slip silicone inside the band, and closes at the crotch with a zipper. Nine hours under a fitted dress and it is exactly where you left it.

VELA vs OTHER FAJAS

Most fajas are built to compress. Vela is built to compress and be worn — put on alone, kept on all day, and taken to the bathroom without undressing.

Yes. That is the point of the front zip. Step in, pull it up, fasten the inner hooks first (they take the tension), then run the zip up over them. No lying on the bed, no partner, no wrestling with a back closure. Most women have it on in under two minutes by day three.

This is a stage-2 Colombian-style garment: firm through the waist and tummy, moderate through the thigh. You will see a visibly smaller waist and a flatter front the first time you zip it. It is designed for all-day wear under clothes, not the extreme post-surgical stage-3 compression that needs a doctor's sign-off.

No. The leg finishes in a stretch lace band with a line of anti-slip silicone inside it, so the hem stays put under a dress. The bodysuit cut means there is no waistband to roll — the compression runs from the bust to mid-thigh in one piece.

No. There is a zipper closure at the crotch. Unzip, go, zip. The rest of the garment stays exactly where it was.

Yes — it is the same construction used as a post-partum and post-procedure faja: full front coverage, a hook-and-zip double closure, and a soft cotton-blend lining against the skin. If you have had a procedure, follow your surgeon's guidance on when to start wearing compression.

Use the size guide above. Measure your natural waist and the fullest part of your hips. If you are between sizes, choose the larger one — this is a firm garment and the larger size will still shape you. If it doesn't fit, exchange it free within 60 days.

The cups are flexible and unpadded, so they mould to your bust rather than forcing a fixed cup size. The straps adjust and can be removed if you want to wear your own bra over the top.

Ok I was skeptical because every faja I've bought needed two people to close it. Zipped this one up on my own in the fitting room at work. On my own. My coworker asked if I'd lost weight.

The crotch zipper is genius. I wore it to a 6 hour wedding and never had to take the whole thing off. The lift at the back is real and there's no pad to shift around.

Went a size up like the chart says and it fits perfectly. Firm but I can breathe. Ordering the brown for my skin tone next.

Postpartum 3 months. This holds everything in and the front zip means I don't need my husband to help. Wearing it daily now.

First faja I can put on without my sister

I've owned three fajas and every one had a back closure I couldn't reach. This one zips up the front and the hooks underneath hold everything so the zip doesn't fight you. Wore it under a fitted dress for a wedding and my waist looked two sizes smaller. Nobody could see a line.

Sized up like they said and it's perfect

I'm between L and XL and went XL. It is FIRM — the first ten minutes you notice it — then you forget it's there. The crotch zipper is the reason I'll never buy another kind. I'm 4 months postpartum and it holds my stomach in a way my old band never did.

No pads, real lift

I hated the padded ones, you could always see the shape of the pad through leggings. This lifts with the fabric so it looks like me, just better. The lace at the leg doesn't roll, even after a full day on my feet.

Bought black, back for beige

The black is invisible under everything dark. Ordered the beige for my white work dresses. Compression is exactly what I wanted — snatched waist, flat tummy, and I can breathe. The straps adjust so it works with my short torso.

Worth it for the zipper alone

I put it on standing in my bathroom in about a minute. Hooks first then the zip. Smooth under a bodycon dress, and the built-in bra means one less layer. I've worn it for 9-hour days with no marks.
