Body Shapers Market

Global Body Shapers Market: Overview

Body shapers are undergarments that are worn to aesthetically enhance the shape of one's natural body. Also known as foundation garments, they are employed to make the individual more appealing to oneself and the masses, according to prevailing local standards of body shape and size. These are made of stretchable material like spandex and cotton mixed together. The incorporation of good amount of spandex makes these garments worthy of usage for such purposes.

Global Body Shapers Market: Key Trends and Drivers

• The world is today moving towards fitness in a big way. The global fitness industry garnered 94 Bn USD in 2019, and these figures are due to multiply exponentially as an additional 230 million people subscribe to health and fitness clubs. An obsession of this sort is fuelled by a rising awareness about lifestyle diseases, but also by established social standards about a successful person. A petite body is now a symbol of personal success yet cannot be achieved by a population that is working more than ever. Such polar expectations are bound to drive people to alternative methods of achieving an aesthetic body standard, such as by using body shapers. Thus, this market is due to cater to increased demand in the future. 
• The rise of the e-commerce industry makes it easier to access such innovations by a larger section of the population. A 276% increase is estimated in this sector by 2023, riding on the increased percolation of smart phone technology to the base of global culture and a subsequent rise in customer base for all sorts of personal items. This trend is anticipated to give a steady growth curve for the body shapers market to rise in the future. 

Global Body Shapers Market: Regional Analysis

This would be attributed to the globalization of regional culture, which brings an increased awareness of acceptable standards of personal aesthetics. Moreover, personal technology penetration is expected to be the quickest here, giving further impetus to the body shapers market.
