Title: Works like a charm
Review: What a super undergarment. I bought this to wear under a specific unlined dress, but I think I will be wearing under ever dress and skirt. It fits true to size, is a tiny bit hard to pull on but it wouldn't work if it wasn't. Once on it smooths and fits to a T. No lines, bulges and is actually quite comfortable to wear. Some shapewear actually gives me a stomach ache because it is so tight, but this is just the right amount of control and has a band at the bottom so it doesn't ride up. It makes my dresses look perfect and the fact that you can wear it strapless is well...nothing short of a miracle because it works so well that way too. I'm thrilled with this purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a smooth, but comfortable silhouette. Great price too!!

Title: Perfect Strapless Shapewear!
Review: I'm 5'10 and usually weigh between 195 & 200. I wear between as size 10 or a 12 and either a 38 D or DD depending on the brand. I know Maidenform is a respected brand but I'm always leery of buying undergarments online, especially strapless bra's that I can't try on. I ordered the item yesterday and received it same day (Prime is awesome) and I LOVE IT! I couldn't ask for it to fit any better. I'm actually wearing it right now. It smooths and holds without being constricting or uncomfortable. It has the option to wear it with straps or without. I'm wearing it without the straps and haven't had any slippage nor has it rolled up from the bottom. It does have a crotch like a bodysuit that hooks and unhooks. IMO the crotch is an extra level of security against it riding up since I'm tall (not rolling up, but riding up). I've recommended this product to a friend and a coworker this morning, and they both plan on purchasing it. There's a bit of boning on the sides and that doesn't bother me at all, and there are no seams visible through my dress. It wasn't any harder to get into than a pair of spanx. Anyone complaining that it's too tight or uncomfortable either is not use to wearing shapewear or they maybe need to bump up to a plus size. The cup size fits me so well I think I may try a Maidenform bra (I always considered them to be mom bras lol). I may purchase one more, cause it never hurts to have a second one. The only regret I have is not writing this review from my phone so that it would be easier to upload a photo.

Title: Perfect except for hook and eye closure
Review: This is the first time I'd tried wearing a full control slip (I tried several before I picked this one). I found it not quite firm control, but definitely helpful to smooth out the line of my body under tailored work clothes and provide a little tummy flattening, which is what I wanted it for. It's surprisingly sexy--has a definitely vintage feel, and the seams are well-made--and stays in place quite well. I wore it with straps in place but seems like it would do fine strapless (which I don't usually say, as a 36C). Fit true to size based on bra size for me, and it provides nice shaping without too much padding in the cups. Also, relatively cool to wear all day, and I didn't feel pinched or cut anywhere by the edges. Four stars.Why minus one? The one thing I just don't get is the way the crotch closes: hook and eye closures, with three rows for adjustable sizing as for a bra, right in the dead middle. THIS IS SO AWKWARD. Why not use snaps? Or perhaps put the closure on the front of the garment where you can, you know, reach it? Undoing and redoing this requires both time and dexterity. I would just cut out the stupid part altogether, except I think without it the skirt would ride up while wearing.

Title: Very short, for a micro mini
Review: Looks like ot would provide good control, has a sized bra, but way too short to be a slip. I have to return it.

Title: Perfect shape wear!
Review: This is exactly what I wanted. I bought this to wear under dresses since other shape wears had necklines that were too high and would show under many dresses. The neckline of this one is perfect and does not show at all! Also, it’s very comfortable and has shorts as well as the skirt/dress part on top of it. This made me feel secure and confident in my clothes and I’m glad I bought it.

Title: Too Hard to Get On!
Review: This shaper fits extremely poorly. First of all, even if you get the right size, it's practically impossible to pull up. I almost pulled my arm out of my socket trying to get it on. Then once you get it up, your so out of breath and sweating, you just want to cut it off. The boning doesn't hit where it's supposed to between the breasts either. This shaper is just an all around no. Do not buy. Check the other reviews. You need a crane to get it on. I sent it back. Over-priced and not worth a penny because it doesn't fit.

Title: Just Perfect
Review: 42/38/45 - Purchased 38D. This shaper is exactly what I needed. It is snug on my hips, but I want a sintched feel. Although I normally measure at 42/44in (36DDD/38DD), there is minimal spillage on the sides. Of note, I slipped the shaper straight out of the package and did not alter it other than adjust the straps. I believe I will have less spillage when I adjust the back clasp from the first to the second position. Overall, I am extremely happy with my purchase and would purchase it again.

Title: Seriously Effective!
Review: Bought this to wear under an evening gown for a black tie wedding. Getting it on took a bit of pulling, but once on, it was great. The underwire for the strapless bra was great for a strapless dress. And easy to go to the bathroom (which is always an issue with these outfits).

Review: Me encantó, es talla exacta conforme a la talla de sostén, muy buena calidad, comprime el estómago y no saca el gordito de la espalda porque queda arriba. La parte del sostén tiene varillas pero muy cómodo y excelente Calidad

Review: Delivery:I ordered this Thursday night, thinking it would come next week, as it says 3 to 5 days. Imagine my surprise when I get home the next evening to read my e-mails and it says it's been delivered to me??? I looked around, no card, went to my back door and it was left there. It was in a protective pouch so the rain wouldn't have got to it, but delivery within a day of ordering, especially as I ordered at night was totally unexpected, so I would suggest allowing for a super speedy delivery!The product:Fits very well, and feels great on. It's a little tight, but it's shape wear so it's got to do it's job somehow. The cups are very supportive and overall very comfy. There is a gusset which I did not expect, but it unfastens which is great. No VPL.**EDIT** I originally marked down by 1 star because I thought the straps were not alterable such as in the picture, as I wanted them in the X shape across the back. There could have been instructions as it's not like others which just unhook from the side, you have to squeeze the end of the strap in the middle and you will find a little gap for it to then unfasten from the fabric. Now this is in the X shape it feels so much nicer, and the straps now will never fall off my shoulders. This is now one of my favourite purchases ever.

Review: Enfin j'ai trouvé the robe gaine! Elle est parfaite, gomme bien tous les défauts et surtout tient bien en place grâce à sa culotte intégrée et les porte-jarretelles, j'en avais acheté une autre qui n'avait pas le dessous 'incorporé' et bien je peux vous dire qu'elle ne tenait pas du tout et roulait vers le haut jusqu'à se transformer en débardeur boudinant, affreux! Bref celle-ci est top, je recommande!
