Most fabric complaints come down to one of two problems: it runs hot, or it feels like something you're wearing rather than something you forgot about an hour ago. Yummie SoftServe™ was built to solve both at once, and it's worth understanding what's actually in it before deciding whether it's the right fabric for you.
What Is Yummie SoftServe™ Made Of?
Yummie SoftServe™ is knit with Tencel™ Lyocell and Viscose, two fibers chosen specifically for their soft hand-feel, and finished with Outlast® temperature-regulating technology. The result is a fabric that reads as ultra-silky against the skin while doing more work than a standard knit: managing moisture and responding to your body temperature as it changes throughout the day.
It's the fabric behind Yummie's SoftServe™ line, which spans tanks and camis, bodysuits, bras and select bottoms, all built on the same base technology.
How the Temperature Regulation Actually Works
Outlast® technology regulates your body heat rather than simply wicking it away: it stores heat when you're warm and releases it back when you're cool. In practice, that means the fabric responds to the kind of temperature swing a fall day brings, an overheated office in the morning, a chillier commute home, rather than leaving you stuck with a garment that only works in one condition.
Why the Fabric Feels So Different
Moisture-wicking, built in. SoftServe™ manages moisture as part of the knit itself, which is part of why it holds up through a full day of wear without feeling damp or heavy.
A genuinely silky hand-feel. The Tencel™ Lyocell and Viscose blend is chosen for softness first, closer to how a well-worn favorite feels than a typical performance fabric.
Side-seam-free construction. Most SoftServe™ styles are built without side seams, part of what gives Yummie's no-show styles their clean line, and removes one of the most common sources of irritation in a fitted garment worn for hours at a time.
Where You'll Find SoftServe™ Across the Collection
Tanks and camis. The 2-Way Shaping Tank and Convertible Shaping Camisole are two of Yummie's SoftServe™ tanks and camis, built for a layering piece that stays comfortable whether it's under a sweater or worn on its own.
Bodysuits. The Short Sleeve Shaping Thong Bodysuit and Madelyn Mock Neck Shaping Bodysuit are two of Yummie's SoftServe™ shaping bodysuits, relying on the fabric for a construction that's meant to stay in place and stay comfortable for a full day.
Bras and bralettes. The wireless Audrey Wire Free Unlined Bralette and the Emmie T-Back Bralette are both SoftServe™ bras, built on the same moisture-wicking, temperature-regulating fabric.
Bottoms. The Brigitta Mid Waist Shapewear Slip Short carries the same fabric down into Yummie's medium-to-firm shaping shorts, for the same moisture-wicking comfort through the hips and thighs.
SoftServe™ vs. 360Sculpt™ Cotton: What's the Difference?
Yummie builds on two core fabric technologies, and it's worth knowing which one you're reaching for. SoftServe™ is the silkier, more technical option, built for moisture management and temperature regulation. 360Sculpt™ Cotton leans into the familiar, breathable feel of natural fiber instead. Neither is better across the board. It comes down to whether you want the closer-to-skin, performance feel of SoftServe™ or the natural-fiber comfort of cotton.

Caring for Yummie SoftServe™
SoftServe™ styles are machine washable on a cold cycle, tumble dried on low. As with most performance knits, avoiding high heat helps the fabric hold onto its stretch and shape wash after wash.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Yummie SoftServe™ fabric made of? SoftServe™ is knit with Tencel™ Lyocell and Viscose and finished with Outlast® temperature-regulating technology, combining a soft hand-feel with moisture-wicking performance.
How does temperature-regulating fabric actually work? Outlast® technology stores your body heat when you're warm and releases it back when you're cool, so the fabric responds to temperature changes throughout the day rather than performing well in only one condition.
What's the best fabric for shapewear that doesn't overheat? SoftServe™ is built specifically for this. The combination of moisture-wicking fibers and Outlast® temperature regulation is designed to keep the fabric comfortable through temperature swings, rather than trapping heat the way some synthetic-only shapewear can.
Is SoftServe™ or 360Sculpt™ Cotton better? Neither is objectively better. SoftServe™ offers a silkier, more technical feel with built-in moisture management, while 360Sculpt™ Cotton offers the familiar breathability of natural fiber. The right choice comes down to personal preference.
How do I wash Yummie SoftServe™ styles? Machine wash cold and tumble dry low. Avoiding high heat helps the fabric hold its shape and stretch over repeated washes.
