There's Nowhere to Change on a Solo Shoot. Just a Car Door and a Tree, If You're Lucky.

A photographer on what she wears under everything, and the pair she forgot she had on.

Bridget, mid-change in a parking lot before a shoot.

When you're on a solo shoot, there's nowhere to change. There's a car door and a tree if you're lucky. So I always make sure I'm wearing something underneath my clothes.

I was sent a pair of EverEase shorts before this trip, and honestly, I didn't think much of it. They went in the bag with everything else.

Then I was standing in that parking lot, changing into my dress, and I realized something strange. I hadn't thought about them once. Not on the drive out, not while I was shooting, not while I was changing next to the car.

“They just weren't there.”

I didn't adjust them. They didn't show through my dress. They just weren't there. And that is something I am strangely and pleasantly surprised by.

Why I forgot I had them on

Zero compression

Not shapewear. Nothing squeezes, so nothing reminds you it's there.

A waistband that stays put without gripping

A flat band that doesn't roll or dig in, so there's nothing to adjust.

Smooth, flat edges

Nothing prints through a dress, even a light one in daylight.

Light, breathable fabric

A lightweight nylon and spandex blend that doesn't trap heat, comfortable outdoors all day.

Questions readers ask

Is this shapewear?

No. EverEase is built for comfort rather than compression. It is designed to prevent chafing and disappear under your clothes, not to reshape your body.

Will it show under my clothes?

The fabric sits flat and smooth, with edges designed to stay invisible. The beige option is the most discreet under light or thin fabrics.

Will it roll down or ride up?

The waistband is designed to stay in place without gripping, and the leg opening is made to sit flat rather than creep upward.

I didn't expect to be surprised by a pair of shorts. But here we are, pleasantly surprised.
