Almost perfect, but a big flaw
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2019
This type of body briefer is my favorite. Being able to wear my own bra is essential, and access through the hook and eye in the crotch area is very convenient and works well (once you get the hang of it).The fabric used is thick enough to do what it needs to do (holds everything in well) without causing me to get too hot...which has been an issue with other briefers I've used. The band that goes under the tush is loose-ish, so I don't have any bulge/pantyline issues.My only issue with this is that the straps can be taken off. I know that seems like a good thing, but I can't see how this could be used without the straps. The problem comes in with how the straps can be removed -- there is a metal hook where the straps can slide off. One thing I've had happen a time or two is WHILE I'M WEARING the body briefer, the straps slipped out of the hooks! Ugh. I'm going to have to sew the openings closed so this doesn't happen again.I might order again if I can figure out a way to keep the straps from slipping out of the hooks. The straps absolutely need to be 100% secure for those of us who want to use them.
Semi-compressed
Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2019
This shaper offers semi-compression. I'm usually a medium but in this case, I went for small because I wanted maximum compression. It was a REALLY tight fit as the fabric doesn't stretch much. Judging from how it fits, a medium wouldn't have had any effect although it would have been easier to get into. I like that the straps don't pinch but the area near the groin is a little uncomfortable due to chafing. I wore underwear underneath which lessened the discomfort somewhat. I'm not a big girl but I gained a bit of weight recently and as a bonus, gained a muffin top along with it so I just needed a shaper that hides that fact. It'll work for now. I'm still in the market for a shaper though.UPDATE: After wearing this shaper for a couple of days, I'm prepared to recommend. The fact that the material does't quite stretch all that well so it takes the abilities of a contortionist to get into, is the reason why it works well. Once it's on, it's comfortable and I can wear it for hours on end. It flattens my belly even while I'm sitting. The thing I've noticed with these shapers is you still have to hold your stomach in somewhat, it just makes it easier. I definitely recommend this one.
Light weight, but so comfy. I don't expect it to last forever.

I love this bodysuit. It's thin, so I haven't noticed extra heat being held in. Not too tight, not too loose. I can comfortably (with only one inhaled breath and tummy suck-in) pull it up into place on my torso.Added bonus I didn't expect, pushes my ladies together.
Super comfortable

I love this shape wear. It's just tight enough without making you feel uncomfortable. It also has a wide buckle with 3 lines of clips bw the legs, which prevents it from riding up into you lady bits. There's also full coverage over your butt so, no weird lines. Only complaint I would have is that the shoulder straps are a bit thick, but besides that I think it was a great buy.
Donât Buy

I am a small, maybe a medium, and I canât even get it over my head. I ordered a medium to be safe but it looks like itâs made for an extra small. Itâs as large around as my head. If I tried to put it on I would have had to cut it off. Itâs extremely short also, if you have a longer torso, do not buy this. Itâs extremely uncomfortable.
Deepens Hip Dips
Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2020
Nice smoothing across my stomach and back, but it made weird panty lines on the sides of my upper thigh (hip dips) -yet none on my rear! This would work great on outfits that are looser below the waist, but won't work with the outfits I needed it for. This shaper also left dents across the side of my bust, I don't wear padded or foam bras, so that may be my problem- I didn't see any other reviews mention them.
Cute but difficult to put on.

I was hoping just a tad bit more hold in the tummy area, it was absolute hell getting on, but once I got it on it was comfy. It fit pretty tight, as it should. The only problem I really have is I want this little pouch to be held in properly. I would rate this a 9 out of a ten, and I will most definitely order this again. If you have a big butt go up a size girls!
Very comfortable

Very comfortable. Bought it for under a dress and worked very well.
