Maidenform womens Minimizing Hi-waist Fajas Shapewear Fl2107

This is one of the more comfortable shapers that actually does a decent job of holding things in. For reference, I am 5' 8" and weigh 195. Normally, I wear a size 16, which would have been an XL per rhe size chart. Because most said to use up, I bought the 2XL. I probably could have gone down one size if I wanted more belly control, but for smoothing, the larger size still definitely does the job. Things I like: 1) The boy short portion is neither too long (cutting into my thighs) or too short (giving me panty lines.) It lies flat around my bum and even in light colored leggings, the shaper is not noticible. 2) The top is not so tight that you have that extra bulge between bra & shaper. 3) It does not "ride up" giving you a wedgie! 4) It gently smooths the belly making fitted shirts look nicer. What I'd improve: 1) The top edge (which has a no slip gripper) wants to flip over. It doesn't fall down or continue rolling, but it is a bit of an annoyance. The good thing is, you don't feel or see that the top edge has flipped so I consider this minor. I enclosed added a picture with one of my clingy white sweaters so you could see how it looks underneath. All in all, a great buy. May get one in black, too!

I've been searching for a shaper on Amazon for a while, Id say over a month, and this is the fourth one I've tried. I have a Fleexes top that holds in my tummy so I figured I'd try the shaper. I got the brief at first, it fit fine but uncomfortably tight so I swapped over to the shorts! Today was my first day wearing them out (Id say about 6 hrs) and here's my take. For reference: 5'3", appx 173 lbs, got a large. In tops/dresses etc, I'm usually a M or L. Pros: -Tight band at the top, didn't have any slipping as long as I adjusted it right. Had to pull the back up higher to prevent flab. -Smoothing and slimming -Good length: comes right below the br* line on me but I am short -No cr**ch squeezing, shorts are very comfy! -Comfy breathable material for all day wear even in summer heat, didn't feel hot or suffocated -Slimmed the sides and the front! ( this is just a few inch difference from sucking in.) Cons: -The front of the shorts rolls up. I dont know why, there's plenty there to make them fit but they be rollin. Its not too noticeable tho -Gotta take it off and readjust for bathroom -The V line on the back..why? It shows slightly under tight or sheer clothing. Tips for possible buyers: This helps, but it doesn't work miracles! I have a waist trainer that gives that perfect hourglass shape--dont expect this to do all of that! It's just a shaper, its good for smoothing and slimming out problem areas or flab. If you're bigger on the lower half (wide hips/thighs) like me, and in between sizes, I suggest to size up.

The shaper is high compression and it fits so well. It doesn’t suffocate you and really holds you in. I recommend going down a size for better control. I initially got 2xl but it didn’t give me the support I was looking for so I went to the xl. I like that the boy short can’t be seen. It fits my thighs at a higher spot than the model which I like because it’s just like boy shorts underwear and not like short shorts. I even bought the regular version to this in xl and am very happy with it. It sits high up, under my bra so it hides the back fat and makes everything looks seamless. Highly recommend getting this.

Large is usually comfortable fit and loose, had to squeeze into this one. It does go high, about to the bra strap and pretty much stayed up (pulled up a few times), does smooth and suck some stuff in. However, the shorties ride up a lot and there's some big seam in the back for some reason--why would they make it like that? So you can see the lines somewhat through a thin slim dress, not great in that way.

***Product update**- I first tried this garment 2 weeks post tt. I felt like it didnt control my swelling enough. Flash forward to 7 weeks post tt, where my swelling is minimal and I wear a garment mostly for skin sensitivity at this point- I tried it again and it works great, more flexible and comfortable than the garment the doctor gave me. It is not as tight as my doctor-garment, but it does hold my stomach in place and I'm able to wear it under more outfits than the doctor-garment because it is less noticeable.I still can't wear it under jeans because it squishes my butt (I probably needed a Medium to cover my butt, but the small fits my stomach & back just fine). But it stays up great and does what it's supposed to do. *Original review** I bought this girdle to wear after a tt. The garments the doctor gave me go all the way to my thighs and squish my butt, so I was looking for something less noticeable that I could wear under jeans, ect. I was 5'5, 145lbs before surgery and nornally wear an xs/small shirt. The Maidenform Flexees is good in that it does stay up- it does not roll down. I ordered a small and it fit fine. What I did not like is that it's not as tight around my lower stomach, it doesn't hold it in as well so it didn't control my swelling as needed. Also, the shorts part doesn't fit over my butt so it just pushes down and creates funky rolls in jeans. All in all, it's not a bad faja and I think if you're looking for something to wear regularly and not after surgery, that this will be fine.

The fabric is too thick, and the design is odd! I am size 12-14 hourglass shape and ordered size L as instructed by the size guide. Leaving the house with it was a big mistake. It painfully pressed on my ribs under the breasts while being way too loose in the ties and bum area. And it rolls. From both the ties and waste direction. Halfway through the day I went to the toilet, removed it and chalked it to the bin.

This shapewear is lovely. Nice and tight on. Holds bits in place and most importantly very comfortable.

Die Hose ist toll,alles sitzt perfekt und nichts rutscht. Ich empfehle sie gern weiter,weil auch Frauen mit einem Bauch sie tragen sollten.

Esta faja está excelente, ya que no se baja ni se enrolla una vez puesta. Sirve perfectamente para moldear la figura y evitar que se vean esos rollitos extra.

A pesar de que ofrece poca presión es una faja útil, es resistente y cómoda, después de un par de semanas de uso sigue manteniendo su forma y consistencia
