An apparatus, system and method for providing tension in garments for improving privacy control by the wearer. The apparatus incorporates materials having elastomeric properties which may be placed in proximity to a wearer's crotch during operation. The tension is directed to preventing, concealing and/or obfuscating the curvature or shape of private features of the wearer, such as a woman's labia, from visibility through the garment. The apparatus may include one or more components providing tension for privacy control. The apparatus may include angled seams to obfuscate a woman's private features.

1. A garment with a privacy control feature comprising: a tension component located in a front of said garment from a garment bottom to a garment top adapted to be proximate to a wearer's waist; andwherein said tension component is adapted to provide cross-directional pressure at a focal area proximate to genitalia of a person when said person wears said garment,wherein said tension component comprises a fabric having substantially embedded tension elements comprising: a first tension element extending from a first side of said garment bottom to an opposite second side of said garment top; anda second tension element extending from a second side of said garment bottom to an opposite first side of said garment top;wherein said first tension element and said second tension element are configured to apply cross-directional pressure overlapping at said focal area. 2. The garment according to claim 1, comprising a back section adapted to extend from said garment bottom to said garment top, wherein said back section connects to said tension component at said garment bottom. 3. The garment according to claim 1, having a front and a back, and wherein said tension component comprises a back section adapted to extend from said garment bottom to said garment top, wherein said back section is configured to apply tension towards said garment top in the back. 4. The garment according to claim 1, wherein said fabric is designed from at least one of cotton, nylon, polyester, silk, rubber, elastic, and/or neoprene. 5. The garment according to claim 1, wherein said embedded tension elements provide a variety of pressure characteristics across said tension component wherein said embedded tension elements are configured to provide increased pressure at said focal area relative to other portions of said tension component. 6. The garment according to claim 1, wherein said garment is an undergarment. 7. The garment according to claim 1, wherein said garment is at least one of a panty, a yoga pant, a yoga short, a workout bottom, a pair of shorts, and/or a pair of pants. 8. The garment according to claim 1, wherein said tension component is configured to provide sufficient tension at said focal area to obfuscate the visual protrusion of said genitalia through said wearer's garment. 9. The garment according to claim 1, wherein said tension component is configured to provide sufficient tension at said focal area to support said genitalia. 10. A garment having a privacy control feature comprising: a first leg portion extending to a garment top adapted to be proximate to a wearer's waist;a second leg portion extending to said garment top;a front panel located in a front of said garment from a garment bottom to said garment top, wherein said front panel is between said first leg portion and said second leg portion and comprises a garment material;a first seam which connects said first leg portion and said front panel from said garment bottom to said garment top;a second seam which connects said second leg portion and said front panel from said garment bottom to said garment top, wherein said first seam and said second seam are at angles which cause a distance between said first seam and said second seam to widen from the garment bottom to the garment top; andwherein said front panel is adapted to be proximate to said wearer's crotch and wherein said front panel is adapted to obfuscate the wearer's genitalia,wherein said garment material comprises overlapping embedded tension elements configured to apply pressure at a focal point adapted to be proximate to the wearer's genitalia. 11. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said embedded tension elements comprise: a first tension element extending from a first side of said garment bottom to an opposite second side of said garment top; anda second tension element extending from a second side of said garment bottom to an opposite first side of said garment top;wherein said first tension element and said second tension element are configured to apply cross-directional pressure overlapping at said focal point. 12. The garment according to claim 10, comprising a back section adapted to extend from said garment bottom to said garment top, wherein said back section connects to said front panel at said garment bottom. 13. The garment according to claim 10, having a front and a back, and wherein said front panel comprises a back section adapted to extend from said garment bottom to said garment top, wherein said back section is configured to apply tension towards said garment top in the back. 14. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said garment material comprises at least one of cotton, nylon, polyester, silk, rubber, elastic, spandex and/or neoprene. 15. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said garment material is configured to incorporate liner characteristics. 16. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said embedded tension elements are incorporated into said garment material with a weave design, wherein the weave design is configured to produce said pressure at said focal point. 17. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said garment is an undergarment. 18. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said garment is at least one of a panty, a yoga pant, a yoga short, a workout bottom, a pair of shorts, or a pair of pants. 19. The garment according to claim 10, wherein said angles of said first seam and said second seam are designed to obfuscate a characteristic of an other garment.
