What to Wear for Memorial Day, July 4th & Labor Day

Summer is the season of sunshine, celebrations, and long weekends—and nothing sets the tone like a perfect outfit. Whether you're attending a backyard BBQ, heading to a beach picnic, or planning a city escape, your look should feel festive and effortless. From Memorial Day outfits to Fourth of July outfits and Labor Day outfit ideas, here’s your ultimate guide to staying stylish, cool, and comfortable.

Start with the Best Summer Shapewear

Before building your outfit, create a smooth, breathable base with summer shapewear. Yummie’s lightweight shaping shorts, briefs, and tanks are made from moisture-wicking, breathable fabrics that offer light compression without the squeeze. Cotton is perfect for summer layering, and we’ve got breathable cotton clothing, cotton shapewear, and cotton underwear that combine shaping with all day comfort, keeping you cool and supported on those long summer days.

Memorial Day Outfits to Kick Off the Season

What to wear for Memorial Day weekend? Think versatile pieces that blend fashion and function. Pair a flowy linen dress with our seamless panties and comfortable bralettes to stay polished all day long. Keep things casual with capri leggings and a cotton tee for a day spent traveling or lounging. If it’s extra hot out, pair our biker shorts with a breezy tank and accessorize with subtle stars-and-stripes for a festive Fourth of July look.

July 4th Outfits that Celebrate in Style

Going for a patriotic look? Pair your favorite red or blue shorts with our white tops or white bodysuits. Our shapewear tops look just like regular fitted tops that can be worn on their own, but with a nearly invisible knit-in shaping panel at the tummy for comfortable shaping. Or, pair your favorite red or blue top with our white leggings that’ll keep you supported and smooth. If you’re opting to wear a skirt or dress, our shapewear shorts are a must. Ranging from light to firm compression, they offer extra coverage and peace of mind when you’re out and about, whether your dress is too sheer or it’s a windy day. Planning on wearing a formal dress? Check out our full body shapewear slips to keep everything smooth underneath. Want a more relaxed vibe?

Labor Day Outfit Ideas to Close the Season Strong

Labor Day signals the end of summer, so go out in style. Opt for denim leggings if the temps have cooled down, or a shapewear thong under your favorite bottoms. Bring a thin button down to transition to cooler evenings, and add a comfortable everyday bra to complete your look.
