it might get you a job at vandelay industries
jason alexander (pictured above) lost 30 pounds in 15 weeks following jenny craig, but men who want a short cut can go to the hottest item in men’s retail, men’s shapewear. neiman marcus the once exclusive retailer of spanx for men confirmed that the items are flying off of the shelves as quickly as they come in and that shoppers can now get them at bloomies, saks, and nordstrom*. while sara blakely, the founder of spanx is probably happy that the men’s product is increasing the company’s bottom (he he) line, she cautioned that the products were not made for the ‘biggies‘, they were made for the ‘smalls‘– the brand was not created for the ‘hugely overweight’ –the article points out that–even gwyneth paltrow wears spanx (let’s remember though, oprah does too).
the product could have a very positive impact on the many job seekers out there. stephen viscusi, a career coach and author of “Bulletproof Your Job” says that all men over the age of 40 should be wearing these products on job interviews because he said “when you feel good about the way you look, you interview well.” other dudes concur, “It enhances your figure, it fits tight, sucks you in,” said an ohio software exec who owns more than a few (six) of the spanx shirts.
