A shell supports the absorbent structure at the vaginal region and has an adhesive on a body-facing surface for adhering the shell directly to the wearer. The article may be configurable between folded and unfolded configurations. Securement components may be provided for securing the article in a folded configuration during wear and/or to the wearer's undergarment. A method of adhering a body adhering absorbent article to a wearer includes adhering the article to the wearer with a portion of the article positioned generally at a predetermined target region.
