Frequently Asked Questions — SOVA Shapewear

What sizes does SOVA carry?

SOVA carries sizes XS through 4XL (US 0-26+). A 60-second Fit Quiz and detailed Size Guide are available to help find the right fit.

When can I start wearing shapewear after a C-section?

Most doctors recommend waiting 6-8 weeks after a C-section before wearing compression shapewear. Always consult your OB-GYN first, especially if you had complications. SOVA's medium compression (15-20 mmHg) is appropriate for postpartum recovery once cleared by your doctor.

What makes SOVA different from other shapewear brands?

SOVA uses an anti-shame philosophy — no 'problem areas' or 'fixing flaws' language. Our shapewear stays in place without rolling, is comfortable for all-day wear, and comes in sizes XS-4XL. We focus on support, not transformation.

What is the difference between a faja and shapewear?

A faja is a traditional Latin American compression garment — typically firmer and more structured than everyday shapewear, often used medically after surgery or for postpartum recovery. SOVA shapewear prioritizes everyday comfort with moderate compression (15-20 mmHg), making it ideal for daily wear.

Does SOVA ship internationally?

Yes. SOVA offers free shipping on US orders over $50 and ships to the UK and Canada. Returns are accepted within 30 days for a full refund, free exchange, or store credit with a 10% bonus.
