RUTHLESS REVIEW of YITTY by LIZZO Shapewear (aka fabletics)
Exploring Lizzo's Shapewear Brand: Yeti
Introduction to Yeti and Personal Experience
- The speaker expresses excitement about trying Lizzo's new shapewear brand, Yeti, emphasizing Lizzo's positive influence and body positivity message.
- Despite initial enthusiasm, the speaker shares skepticism about Fabletics (the parent company), noting mixed experiences with their products but trusts Lizzo’s vision.
Shopping Experience and Initial Impressions
- The shopping experience is described as disorganized, leading to feelings of inadequacy rather than empowerment, which contradicts the purpose of shapewear.
- The speaker highlights a personal connection to a dress received from Christine Quinn, expressing anxiety about wearing it due to its tight fit.
Overview of Yeti Collections
- Yeti’s offerings are categorized into three collections; the first being mesh items designed for smoothing and shaping while remaining stylish.
- A specific mesh bodysuit is introduced; it features double lining for structure and is made from 82% recycled material.
Pricing Structure and Membership Insights
- Pricing details reveal that the bodysuit costs $85 for non-VIP members but $64.95 for VIP members; concerns are raised about Fabletics' membership model requiring monthly skips to avoid charges.
- The speaker decides to keep the bodysuit despite not seeing it as an everyday item, viewing it as a fun statement piece.
Evaluation of Additional Items in the Collection
- A crop top with silicone lining is discussed; it's breathable but may not be suitable for layering under clothing.
- Comfort levels are noted regarding shorts made from similar mesh material designed to prevent panty lines.
Inclusivity in Sizing and Design Considerations
- The collection offers sizes ranging from 6XL to XS, prioritizing curvy body types in design considerations which resonates positively with the speaker.
- While helpful size representations exist on listings, inconsistencies were noted regarding model sizing versus available options.
Final Thoughts on Fit and Functionality
- Speculation arises whether Fabletics approached Lizzo for an activewear collaboration or if she insisted on shapewear instead.
Product Review and Insights on Shapewear
Initial Impressions of Products
- The speaker expresses uncertainty about silicone waste in underwear but finds it acceptable. They appreciate the crop top's design but criticize its price, noting that shapewear is typically expensive.
- The speaker mentions winners of a previous giveaway and shares their goal to surpass Kim Kardashian in YouTube subscribers, promising a gift from her closet as motivation for viewers to subscribe.
Yeti Collection Overview
- Introduction to the next Yeti collection featuring "nearly naked" shapewear designed for smoothness under clothing, available in neutral and fun colors.
- The speaker tries on two bodysuits (shorts and thong versions), expressing excitement about the fit and comfort level, particularly appreciating the medium compression that smoothens without being overly tight.
Evaluation of Specific Items
- Positive feedback on the bodysuit's strategic compression around the body; however, concerns are raised about typical issues with shapewear digging into thighs. The price point of $39.95 is deemed reasonable.
- A risk taken with shorts in yellow color leads to disappointment due to sheerness; they feel less smooth compared to other items tried.
Additional Product Reviews
- Discussion on a bra with silicone support inside but notes issues with waistband rolling; overall dissatisfaction with shapewear shorts prompts a decision to return them.
- Introduction of another collection called "major label," described as loungy and comfortable, though lacking an oversized t-shirt option which would enhance the set.
Final Thoughts on Fit and Comfort
- Leggings from this collection receive criticism for having no compression, leading to doubts about sizing choices despite their cuteness.
- A dress is reviewed both alone and layered over shapewear; while minimal differences are noted visually, wearing it gives the speaker confidence despite feeling not at their best.
