If possible, choose bathroom-friendly undergarments with an opening in the crotch for easy use. If your bodyshapers go above the waist of your dress, it is much simpler to simply open the crotch and squat on the toilet than it is to take the dress off in order to remove your spandex . . .

peeLUX is a small, lightweight easy to use adapter for the “pee hole” in shapewear that makes it easy and foolproof to use the ladies' room while wearing shapewear without getting wet or undressed.

"I will say that when I created Spanx 20 years ago, I designed them — and I'm glad you guys are talking about this because the nation's divided — but, I designed them so you don't wear underwear under them," Blakely said.

“I just launched Skims and I've been debating if I need a pee hole in certain of the things,” she said before sharing an even more personal little secret. “Under a dress to like the Emmys or whatever, I would try to use the pee hole and then you pee all over yourself,” she said. “It doesn't work half the time anyway!”
