Q: Does the top roll down and do the leg openings roll up ? Also I am 5'8 and 175 not sure what size would work best on me

submitted by JanetJas - 1 year ago

  • A: Thanks for asking about the Women's Core Body Smoothing High-Waist Mid-Thigh Shorts. These are designed to stay in place and should not roll up or down. To find the perfect fit, we recommend checking the size chart and focusing on the waist and hip measurements.

Q: My waist measurement is a size smaller than my hips on the size chart. Should I order the size based on my waist or hip measurement?

submitted by MJ - 1 year ago

  • A: When your waist and hip measurements fall into different sizes on the chart, it really comes down to personal preference. If you prefer a snugger fit around the waist, go with that size; if you prioritize a more comfortable fit around the hips, choose the size that matches your hip measurement.

    Works pretty well

    I wear a women’s size 4-6 and the medium in this was perfect. It holds everything in pretty well and is comfortable. But, the top rolls down pretty badly.

    Comfortable but no compression

    Very comfortable but virtually no compression and hits a weird point on my stomach, I'm 5'7 150 lbs and I got a medium for reference. It doesn't go up to my bust so it creates a dent in my stomach halfway which is very noticable under a silk dress. Maybe I needed to size down, I'm not sure, but I wouldn't repurchase.

    Doesn't roll down & gives great smoothing

    I’m so impressed for how well this holds in the core and thighs giving a smoothing affect for the price and the top doesn’t roll down. So many times with shapewear like this style the top part can roll down on me & this one is perfect!

    Must Have!

    This body shaper is so comfortable!! I tried it under my jeans and it doesn’t show lines on the legs! It also hides love handles very well and it’s very comfortable to wear. Right now I’m looking for a second one just to have an extra one!

    nice for the money

    it does a good job of compressing without making me feel faint. It actually felt cooling wearing them but I wasn't outdoors much so they might make you sweat.

    Holds in all the bulges!

    This is a game changer! I wear support wear to smooth my figure but mostly to support my back! I have several bulging discs and arthritis in my spine so the compression works like a back brace for me! It’s so comfortable too! Smooths me from under the girls to down the thighs! Great price so I’m going back for the black one! I got the neutral color first. Also it really stays up!!!! I’ve tried many other brands but this is my favorite!

    Fits nice but waist rolls

    Nice slimming. Not too tight but compresses enough to even out shape. However, this is brand new out of the box and the waistband rolls down. It will probably work fine if you never bend at the waist or crouch down, but if you're actively doing anything that requires either motion the top WILL roll.

    What a nightmare

    The first time I wore these it was great, and then I washed them. Machine wash on the tag so I did. When I went to change loads, everything in the wash was fused together. The elastic had come off of these and tightly round everything together so many times that it took me forever to untangle everything. It was a mess and now the elastic is gone from these so.. what’s the point? They won’t hold up anymore just keep rolling down making them useless.
