SPANX Shapewear for Women Thinstincts Open-Bust Mid-Thigh Bodysuit (Regular and Plus Sizes)

Perfect great price

Is this product a true shaper? The answer is NO. I doesn’t have a lot of support. However, if you are looking to mainly make your body lines smoother while wearing tight dress, then this product is your friend.I like that it feels light, and not many seams only on the back which most of the time comes at the zipper line of the dress.I also like that shorts aren’t finished with any type of hamming, so it doesn’t show. However, what works for me may not work for all, as it doesn’t have a lot of support, nor does it have a tape at the bottom to keep it in place. So if they don’t fit they may roll up.Finally, I like that it works well with my bra.I’ve tried this product with various tight dresses and for me it seems to do the trick, it removed panty lines and smooths some of the lines that I usually feel self conscious about. So for me it’s a keeper and I am getting nude colored shaper as well.

I like it for a little extra security when you don't want to jiggle in a skirt or dress and for slimming the stomach but I have to remove a star because it is impossible to piss on your onesie when you go to the bathroom. The gusset for bathroom use just isn't ergonomic. Be prepared to not drink anything before or during your use of this apparel OR be prepared to piss and dribble on your suit if you do use the bathroom. The only thing I would recommend in conjunction with this is the Venus to Mars Female Urinal Device which has a learning curve but once you get it down to use with your anatomy, it's a really handy device. Anyway, you've been warned, I couldn't wait to get out of this thing after wearing it for 6 hours. One good thing is that the fabric in the gusset is moisture wicking so the leftover urine did not soak through to my skirt when I sat down.

For the last 10+ years I have stayed away from spanx products as I remember them being bulky and tight, reminding me of a binding feeling corset like in the old movies. I discontinued use since I was told it was unhealthy to have that going on all day. This product is comfortably thin and does not have discomfort. I don't feel my inner organs are getting squished like they used to with older spanx products. Mindful of the previous reviews indicating the fabric tore easily, I was careful to put it on, which seemed wise, and worked fine. If you do that, you won't tear it. And If you are anywhere near the "edge" of the size chart, then definitely size UP to a larger size. You can't squeeze into these things successfully if they are too tight, but they will comfortably smooth out the waist, hips, and bottom bra line area, which is the whole idea of this product. They do make a worthwhile difference. Would have preferred slightly more cost effective, so I only got one each of beige and black. Will likely hand soak and rinse after wearing in order to preserve the newness and protect the fabric in the wash, or put them in a mesh laundry bag and only use delicate cycle.

I bought this for my wedding. I got it in a size 3x, but then ended up losing some weight which put me at between a 2 and a 3. I kept my original size, though, as I liked the slightly looser fit-- it was very comfortable but it still held my tummy more or less in place. Well, I wore it for the first time the night of the rehearsal dinner. It was wonderfully comfortable until I had to pee. As soon as I sat down to use the toilet, RIIIIIP, the gusset tore right up the butt. The gusset was put there for ease of peeing and it ended up completely destroying this brand new, $100 shapewear that I was hoping to wear for a while yet. I ended up having to wear much older and cheaper shapewear for my wedding, which was very disappointing. 1/5 for this product, might be higher if you're a superhuman who doesn't ever need to pee. Ugh.

I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect shapewear & had high hopes for this bodysuit. I used the sizing guide & ordered a Large because I didn’t want to feel too restricted, and I didn’t want to see a visible line around my thighs where the shorts end. I was hoping for the right amount of comfortable compression. (I’m 5’7” with a relatively flat stomach and ample behind)Unfortunately it was too big & the fabric was too thin to offer much more than a bit of smoothing. I still saw some lumps around my lower stomach because it didn’t fit closely enough to my body.I considered buying it in medium, but the thin fabric & leg openings didn’t convince me that it would be the right piece for me, even in the smaller size.

Spanx saved me for my son's wedding. There was a bit of a struggle getting it on, but once it was in place, I could see that it was going to work out perfectly! I had an evening gown that was very form-fitting. I was worried that I wouldn't have a smooth look while walking down a 300+ foot aisle with lots of eyes gazing at me. I loved this open-bust wear because I could wear my own comfortable bra and it offered just the support I needed from just under my bra line, all the way down to my knees. I'm so happy there is an opening for going to the potty, if you know what I mean! I never felt hot or sticky on a warm 75 degree day and many guests gave me nice complements on my sleek look! The price is very reasonable compared to other long undergarments. I would surely purchase this again.

What I received is not the same product that is pictured.In the picture, the back is identical to the front, where it gives you coverage for your back fat.What I received is a more like a bra - a very thin strap that creates a right angle in the back.I was going to return but my old pair is wearing thin and I don’t have the patience to find the bodysuit I want. How it is manufactured now is not built to last and I assume it’s why Spanx changed it.I can feel this new bodysuit pulling on my shoulders. Otherwise it’s comfortable and fits fine. True to size.I’m also unhappy with the seams. Old body suit didn’t have thin seams around the bra area that now digs into my bra.So I’m unhappy that what I received is not what is pictured and I’m unhappy that Spanx changed the design of the bodysuit to be more uncomfortable.
