Maidenform womens Wear Your Own Bra Shapewear Torsette Fl1866

This baby is a classic. A solid product that's been around for years. I just bought a black and a beige which replaced the two I had (The exact same item)... That are about 18 years old, I kid you not! That's quality! And I'm terrible about line drying my delicates so they had been in the dryer many, many times! Yes, the old ones were well worn and stretched out, and have needed replacing for a while, but I was still wearing them! This item checks all of my boxes: long enough/doesn't roll up (if you have the right size ), does what it's supposed to (smooths and compresses, improving your shape under clothing), addresses all the back fat areas including that hard to get bra line and side boob area, bust is open, durable/washes up well, keeps compression/shape for years. I've tried tons shapewear products over the years, including really expensive ones. This is my everyday fave. True to size, know your measurements, use the size chart. I hope they never stop making this item.

This is my third Maidenform purchase and I’m not unhappy about it. I’m 5’5 and I weight 268. I’m an apple-ish shape. I gain weight all over my body not just my belly but my belly is where most of my weight hangs out. My weight is in my lower belly. I have larger thighs, arm, and bust, they aren’t skinny, my waist is slightly smaller. I ordered a 2x and it fits very good. I love that I can wear my own bra. I love that it smooths out my side and back-fat. It does hold my belly well but where it shines is the back-fat and side rolls. I did experience some rolling in the back but was able to fix that by tucking it into my clothes like the other reviewers recommended. It’s well worth the money and I plan to purchase another. I know people had issues with the straps being so wide. I assume it has to be wide so that you can step into it and pull it up. I didn’t have an issue with the shoulder strap, but the other reviews are right. This won’t look good with tanks or thin strapped tops. I recommend hand washing and hang drying. No washing machine and dryers. I feel those can been too hard on the garment and shorten its lifespan and ruin the elastic. I’m currently losing weight, but as I lose weight I plan to order the next size down.

I've been losing a lot of weight (go WW) and I am in between pant sizes thanks to my stubborn muffin top. THIS was an excellent solution! My smaller pants (14) fit with ease and without the discomfort of the waistband strangling me or my muffin top popping over and looking sloppy.Depending on if I was sitting for a long time or walking around a bit it did roll from the bottom at times - not enough to be a bother to me, but it didn't stick in place ALL day.The ability to wear my own bra was a huge plus. I have another shaper that is a full camisole type that just flattens the girls and is ridiculously uncomfortable. This style lets the girls breathe and gives them a small bit of lift.

I started buying these 3 years ago after having the gastric bypass surgery. I love how it allows you to wear your own bra. I put on the garments first and fix my breast to make sure they are completely out. Then I put on my bra. I have slowly gotten down to a size medium from XL. They are very durable. Mine get put through the ringer and have managed to survive. I have either purchased replacements due to sizing or because the ones I have had started to loose elasticity. The silicone film in the inner bottom part of the garment will eventually start to peal with wear and tear but I wear them all day every day so for me, having durable shape wear is a must. It has helped with not having a ton of lose skin and helped me shrink down with tighter and firmer skin. It really does give me a flattering waist line. It can feel uncomfortable at first but you get used to it. If only wearing for an event, it is flattering but make sure to check that the dress has high back coverage before buying this. Also, it is true to size so no need to get larger or smaller. keep in mind that if wearing with a shirt or any top that you need to wear a long one because this garment makes your pants/ skirt/ shorts slide down if you wear it in the inside instead of on the outside to help keep your bottoms in place. I am only 4 feet 10 inches and it does feel a bit long but I make it work.

Love it. It's comfortable and helps with posture and support lower back. I recommend this product.

I can't tell you how much I wanted to love this item. The belly control, while not constricting, is decent for everyday wear. It doesn't suck in enough to be corset-like but the style is so much more comfortable than thigh slimmers that extend up at the waist. But I returned it because the arm straps are just strange. They're too loose to do much as far as holding the piece up, and they cut into the underarm. I thought about cutting them off, but was afraid the back would roll down. Maybe they would fit better on a taller woman- I am 5"4. I wish so much that Maidenform would make an item just like this, great lycra fabric, tight belly control, but with a crew neck and serious compression 3/4 sleeves, with no compression at the chest so you could wear over a normal bra. That would solve the 2 biggest problems for so many middle-aged women- jiggly arms and belly. And nobody makes one like it! Forget the body suits with their bathroom challenges and just make a good top like described and I'd be first in line to get one!

I love getting one of these every other year for winter, it helps keep things together and also keeps me warm during cold months. Also, because of the design, I can still wear my own undergarments so it's convenient. It has very good materials and makes for a flattering figure.
