"It does a great job. It doesn't t give a muffin top. It minimizes your belly without being tight on the waist and legs. I would definitely recommend."

"This body shaper is excellent at smoothing out any little unwanted tummy or back rolls. I am a mom of C-section babies and I have been looking for a shaper that's comfortable and which really works. Also, it does not flatten your bottom."

"These are absolutely wonderful! They go up nice and high so they cover all of my stomach and sides, which is what I was looking for. They give me that extra confidence boost to wear form-fitting dresses!"

"Definitely smooths bulges and holds you in. There is some boning in the back, which was unexpected, but isn't visible or uncomfortable."

"Smoothed out my stomach but ran a little small. Good purchase overall.

"Amazing! Smooth, slimming, easy to wear. Sucks you in."

"This TC 'Shape Away' high-waist shapewear is my new favorite. I have other items of shapewear including the brand that most people think of when they think of shapewear but this TC brand beats them all! It is very well made, comfortable and most of all does the job. My first time wearing it was for my granddaughter's wedding. I put it on at 2:00 in the afternoon and didn't take it off until almost midnight that day. It was never once uncomfortable and it made my dress fit like a dream."

"Starting wearing these a week after my C-section. Very comfortable and highly recommend."

"I bought this for post-surgical support, but it’s so comfortable—and effective—that I will be wearing it more frequently at work. Time to get another one in nude!"

"This cincher flattens and gives the appearance of a more slim silhouette. You will feel the pressure of the material but that just means that it's getting the job done, won't leave home without it!"

"If you just need a little something to control and give you a smooth appearance under your dresses, this is for you! Very comfortable and does not ride up. Love! Not necessary to wear a bra with this if you have a medium-to-small bust."

"This is my favorite shapewear piece. I am a size 8, 5'10" and sized down to a small for extra 'tummy control.' Highly recommend."

"The legs stayed down and the top stayed up over my stomach all night. Very comfortable. Well worth the money."

"Cinches you in and keeps you warm as well. This is a no-brainer!"

"A great smoothing effect and gives support."

"Exactly what I was looking for: comfy, lightweight and something I can wear instead of a shaping panty and a bra. I always feel like I'm yanking my bra down and my panties up! I have a few dresses that don't need a slip but need something 'solid' underneath. Very soft and the bra part fits perfectly."

"Easy to get on (unlike some shapewear) and fits nicely, smoothing all of the key areas! The leg length is perfect, and they didn't creep up! I think you too would be satisfied with these shaping shorts!"

"It's important to remember this is marketed as 'everyday' shapewear for sculpting. If you're looking for the heavy-duty body contouring shapewear this isn't it. I love that this smooths my curves without trying to eliminate them. [It's] also thick enough to wear as a top under jackets or blazers."

"This past fall, I ordered a variety of brands, including Nordstrom, Spanx, Wolford, Smartwool, and Commando. This pair was the winner." 

"It worked like a charm! I wanted a slimmer waistline and I got one. It was very comfortable too, which also surprised me."

"These have a comfortable smoothing effect, and no pinching or rolling up of the waist band."

"I bought this to wear during the summer with sundresses, both for modesty and to prevent thigh chafing. They fit perfectly and stay in place while being comfortable."

"This is a great slip and has the little crotch piece that holds the slip down when you wear it for a long time. The stretchy material is great and not too thick, but also not that thin stuff that doesn't hold anything."

"Once I started to wear Chantelle, I wear no other brand. This bodysuit is firm control, yet completely comfortable for all-day wear. It's very pretty with a well-shaped bra and that smooths the back."
