REALLY works - follow their size chart and get snatched
I am 5’9”, size 20/22 with a 52” bust 41” waist and 51” hips - so, a big girl with a big upper belly and big breasts. I came across this faja after watching PinupDollAshleyMarie on YouTube, her video called “Shaping Your Body With Shapewear”. If you’re like me, you’ve tried different shapewear that only kind of worked and ended up being a waste of money which only ever resulted in an unflattering rounded sausage tube shape, rather than enhancing my hips and butt and cinching my waist like I wanted. So I was delighted when Ashley Marie gave a very in-depth review of this specific item, including advice on how to get this thing on. Like a lot of others, I really hesitated spending this much on an item off amazon sight-unseen but decided to trust the results i had seen from Ashley Marie’s video and the other reviewers who insisted that the size chart is correct, and I’m here to tell you that I’m so pleased that I did.This thing seems ungodly when you first look at it - absurdly small - but trust me when I say if you follow the waist and hips measurements for the size chart, then you WILL be able to squeeze your body into this thing. I very much suggest watching Ashley Marie’s video for instructions on how to get this on your body because it is definitely a physical struggle - you WILL sweat lol. If you can’t be bothered to watch her video, her tips are:-don’t lotion or lube before, it’s not necessary-step into it and get it up around your thighs as much as possible-roll up the leg cuffs with the adhesive backing, to make sliding it over your legs much easier-use a scooping motion to get the butt part over your butt, also use lunging motions to get it over your thighs and butt-really engage those muscles to get the front clasps closed-get some help to pull the back up around your shoulders-just watch the videoMy own experience:This thing is TIGHT. But I LOVE the results. I wore this for a few hours around the house, over the course of a few days, just to get used to it. I was really thrilled to see how cinched my waist looked, from the side AND from the front! I am a little taller, so this definitely required me to loosen the straps as far as they will possibly go. And I will tell you now - if you have a fat cat and/or are over 5’8” you will get some MAJOR cameltoe. I had to sort of pull it down while shoving my fat around lol. There is a crotch opening for restroom usage but it’s too small, don’t even try to use it without making the hole bigger. Just cut it bigger and stitch it up. Leg adhesive backing did a great job and didn’t ride up or budge at all.Wore this to a rave, and it was sweaty city - but that didn’t matter because I felt secure enough to dance all night and felt amazing doing it. Did the straps did into my shoulder? Big time. Is this hot, constricting, uncomfortable, and hard to get in and out of? Oh yeah. Is it worth it? Absolutely. Get this!

Get One!
I typically wear a medium in shirts and a size 10 in jeans. I purchased the XL and it was perfect. I took the advice of another reviewer for the initial try-on. I laid on the floor and did the hook then zip, hook then zip method. It worked just fine. I thought I was gonna pass out, but I made it through. After the initial try-on, I was able to just stand and hook and zip. The hooks are pretty reinforced. There's no "give" when you hook it that causes you to wonder if it's going to come unhinged and put someone's eye out!I did wonder if it really made any difference when I put on my clothes. I'm familiar with wearing waist cinchers ( I like the huggy feeling ) and tend to wear one most days. I didn't have to wonder long. My husband asked me if I'd been eating lately and then told me whatever I was doing to not stop. When he kept complimenting my butt I knew something was up! He NEVER compliments my butt - well...because I'm pretty darn butt free! The kicker was when my 16 y/o daughter slapped it and followed it up with a dab!So, yeah - I think I'll be purchasing another. Just curious whether the black version is made differently or not. I love the way the beige is made. The length of the leg portion helps to smooth and hides under thin pencil skirts and leggings.Cons? None really. If I had to pick something, it'd have to be the straps. I have longish legs and my torso is pretty short with a DDD bust and the straps sort of rub against my inner arm/chest and they're not long enough. I need to replace them because they dig into my shoulders a bit and disconnect here and there. They do adjust, but I'm not sure for whom. Geesh, I just re-read my self-description and I sound horrible! LOL - long legs, flat butt, no torso...goodness! Anyway, this shaper/trainer does wonders and helps with my posture. Love it!

If you have muffin top size up!
So I order this as I have a few different events coming up this fall (a couple bridal showers, a baby shower and some weddings). I'm currently 5'7" and around 210lbs. I have mom tummy after two 9lb+ babies. I've been dropping the weight but I'm still a little shapeless. I've also accept the muffin top is here to stay. I want to wear some more form fitting dresses, and also looking for some waist training so decided to take the plunge and purchase this. After reading many reviews I decided to order true to size, especially after one of the reviewers felt that most people weren't taking this style of shape wear seriously. I love the structure and while I had difficulty getting it over my thighs I thought it would be good. Unfortunately once it was over my torso there was no way I was getting the hooks done. I am very boxing still and my hips are a little larger. I even had the husband try to help and get the hooks done. There was no way it was happening. I'm going to return the xlarge and get the 3xl. I think with all the extra I have in my stomach area I need a little more room. If you are someone who still has some shape, or isn't dealing with the muffin top situation I think this will fit more true to size. My only concern is I don't want the legs to be to big with the larger size. the legs on the xl fit well, but we will see. I will update this once I receive the 3xl.EDIT: I have received my 3XL and I'm very happy. I am going to leave it at 4 stars only because I'm getting a lot of front wedge with this. At 5'7" most of my height is in my torso and I think that is what is causing this. I'm also having issues with the straps digging into my shoulders. I though about taking the straps off but I'm concerned that it will just roll down. Not because this is poorly made, just that I have comeback rolls that may push it down. I am trying to put it on for some length of time every day to every other day to "break it in", and it is getting easier. The leg openings are a little loose, but when I sit they are very comfortable. Over all I am happy with this. It's very structured and gives my stomach a smoother appearance.

It's what I've been looking for!
It's perfect for me! I'm 5'1" with a short torso and it fits me well. The quality is good and very comfortable. I like how the straps are wide that they cover even the armpit fats. I've always been frustrated with shapewears because their measurements are always off for me. I'm glad I came across this although it's a bit pricey but well worth it.

Pensavo meglio
Cinque tentativi prima della taglia "giusta". Le prime 3 volte l'ordine non e' proprio arrivato, mai consegnato.La quarta volta ho preso una taglia L (io vesto una 46/48 ITA, 16/18 UK) ma era stretta in modo assurdo.Cambiata con una XXL, seguendo le istruzioni per la scelta della taglia.Almeno questa adesso entra, ma onestamente mi aspettavo di meglio a livello di compressione.Fornisce un ottimo sostegno, un leggero modellamento di fianchi e vita, ma tutto qui.Sulla mia zona dolente (il ventre) non si vede nessuna differenza.Personalmente lo consiglio a chi vuole modellare invece che "ridurre il volume", obiettivo che si raggiunge solo con l'attivita' fisica.
