Nested Shaping Layers for Concealed Thigh Compression
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing body-shaping pants fail to visually conceal constrictive bands and effectively lift hips while constricting inner thigh fat, lacking aesthetic appeal and functional shaping effects.
Innovation Solution
Thigh-constricting and hip-lifting body-shaping pants with double-layer shaping portions, where the first shaping portion covers upper thighs and pubis regions with inner side edges extending to inner thighs and outer side edges connected to the second shaping portion below hips, creating a cooperative effect to lift hips and constrict inner thigh fat, while the design includes inclined hems and free openings to reduce wrinkles and visibility of stitches.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If constrictive bands are added to constrict inner thigh fat, then thigh-constraining effect is improved, but visual appearance deteriorates due to visible bands
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies nesting by placing an inner shaping piece with constrictive bands inside the pants body, which is then covered by an outer garment layer. The inner piece is inserted through leg holes and positioned within the pants, creating a nested structure where the constrictive element is hidden inside the outer garment, thus maintaining visual aesthetic while providing thigh-constraining effect
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies local quality by making different parts of the pants have different properties: the outer surface layer maintains smooth, aesthetic appearance while the inner shaping piece provides localized constrictive force at specific areas (thighs, hips, abdomen). The constrictive bands are positioned only where needed for shaping, not uniformly across the entire garment
2Reliability
If hip-lifting bands are added to lift hips, then hip-lifting effect is improved, but visual appearance deteriorates due to visible bands
Solution Approach 1:
The hip-lifting band is nested inside the pants body structure, positioned within the garment rather than on the outer surface. The inner shaping piece containing the hip-lifting band is inserted through the leg hole and positioned inside the pants, allowing the hip-lifting function to work while remaining concealed by the outer garment layers
3Reliability
If double-layer structure with inner shaping piece is used, then shaping effect is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by dividing the pants into distinct functional components: an outer garment layer providing coverage and an inner shaping piece providing constraining and lifting forces. The inner shaping piece is further segmented into functional zones (thigh-constraining portions, hip-lifting bands, abdomen-constraining bands) that can be independently designed and positioned for optimal shaping effect

AI summary
The present utility model relates to the technical field of body-shaping clothes, and in particular to thigh-constricting and hip-lifting body-shaping pants. The thigh-constricting and hip-lifting body-shaping pants include a pants body, wherein the pants body has a second shaping portion on a back side of the pants body and a first shaping portion on a front side of the pants body; the first shaping portion is arranged corresponding to upper thighs and a pubis region and has two inner side edges extending to inner thighs and two outer side edges extending to outer thighs; and the second shaping portion is arranged corresponding to positions below hips, and both ends of the second shaping portion and the corresponding outer side edges of the first shaping portion are connected at the outer thighs, respectively.
