Good for coverage, not so much for tummy control
This worked for what we needed but I wouldn’t say it was terribly slimming, at least not in comparison to other “tummy control” items we’ve used. My daughter was taking her senior pictures and needed something to go under her dresses for changes where there wasn’t a lot of places to cover as well as a bra that could go strapless. This isn’t strapless but with the underside we were able to tuck the straps in and it still help her chest area (she is a 36 D). She wanted something slimming as one of the dresses provided to her by the photographer was a little tighter on her than the others. This really didn’t pull her stomach in at all. It provided coverage but not much else. It isn’t an item I see her using every again because it also wasn’t very comfortable and the material was hot for a summer shoot (not the fault of the item, but if you are someone who gets hot easily it might be better to go with the Spanx brand or something with a softer material). I have washed it and it held up well on the delicate cycle and line drying without pilling or pulling the boning through the seems. Overall, this was an ok item but basically a waste of money for us since I don’t see it ever being used again.

Too short
I'm 5'5" and weigh 150 on a bad day, with 34DD. This product certainly felt like it worked, but it was a few inches too short and when secured by the crotch it pulled the cups down to where my boobs usually sit, which obviously isn't where I want them lol Anyway, it was understandably uncomfortable and created a somewhat ideal shape, and at least my boobs had shape even though they were still technically sagging. I bought this so that my boobs would be supported by something strapless like a corset, so I guess it got the job done. But I also hoped it would take a few more inches off and it only made a 1 inch difference. On top of that, since it was too short, it gave me side boobs and was not flattering on my back at all. Pudgy. I'm not exactly fat, and I'm not skinny either, so wearing this and seeing pudge made me feel self conscious. It also made me feel a bit suffocated since the material didn't breathe well, but I guess that's the price for buying a corset, basically. I returned it for something longer.

Straps optional but extremely difficult to remove!!
The fit and form of this shape wear is good; but a huge production flaw if one intends to use or not use the straps. I purchased them for a dress that had very thin straps, so I wanted the strapless option. I spent a 1/2 hour trying to remove the 2 straps from 4 sleeves. The sewn in area was so very tight, that after removing them, I'd never be able to put them back on. The first one that I received, I returned it assuming that it was poorly made with this defect. I tried with a 2nd one which had the same problem. I was close to simply snipping them off. But alas, I bought it with the intention of a strapless shape wear and I guess that's the ONLY way it's going to be.

Tight on lady region
The snaps made it a little uncomfortable on the lady region. But it holds nicely. I recommend this for anyone and I can't wait to look held in for my wedding

Squeezes a little too tight
I wanted to love this product because I have used Maidenform shapewear before and loved it but this product wasn’t it for me. It goes based on your bra cup size so there is no other way to make this shapewear fit better. 1st off it was very complicated to put on because it is made like a bra but if you don’t know how to put a bra on while the clamps are in the back you will need help. 2nd it squeezed so tight it made bulges above and below where the wire ends on the side. It may work for someone that is a bit smaller but it didn’t work for me. Unfortunately I will have to return this item

Weird fit
The “corset” section cuts off at the worst part of your hips and makes you look bigger. The bra cups are odd and not flattering at all.

It is hard to use it without the strings
It is gorgeous but I did not like how it fits around waist/ hips. If you are looking for a pear shape this is it. Did not work for me but it is a good looking product for the right body.

Difficult to wear
I like it. It works for your strapless clothes. But you may require assistance closing the hooks. Also it really doesn't provide much stomach support very light coverage

Great product if you get the sizing right.
Excellent product, really happy with the quality.I'm a curvy size 12L/14 (UK), cup size C, and 168cm. I ordered 38B and it fits perfect - makes my waist look tiny and good smoothing of my tummy. The cups run large and body runs small/short, I'm quite tall so got a slightly bigger size to accommodate the vertical stretch. I wouldn't wear it strapless as I need the shoulder straps to keep it stretched vertically and I need a lower back so I have less support around the bust. You could move the back strap up or down an inch easily to accommodate more support or a lower cut. It has medium support which is just perfect, any tighter and you'd get spillage as the low back cuts right across the squishy part. It has boning in the front - a little uncomfortable if you slouch when you sit but otherwise really comfortable to wear, and nice and secure around my derriere - so no riding up.

Perfect fit
I ordered 36D which I wasn't expecting much due to the fact I could never find anything lowback underwear that's a good fit but the was pleasantly surprised it fitted perfectly even without the straps, I ordered another 😊

Firm and safe
This is a strange fitting and size. I'm a 14/16 C cup. The bodice fitted perfectly, but the cup size was a little big. (nothing that chicken fillets didn't fix 😉)It didn't slip down all day, which was perfect for a under my wedding dress.

Cup size way too big
The cups on this product were far too big. I am normally a 40DD but after reading the previous reviews ordered a 40D. The cups were way to big but it was hard to fasten at the back. If the sizing had been correct it probably would have been perfect. Probably would need to go up a back size but down to a C cup

Does the job
Perfect for under my bridesmaid dress, held me in and up! Smoothed lumps and bumps, perfect for under dresses (especially unforgiving material dresses) x
