MaidenformWomen's Sculpts Open Bust Romper, Ultra Firm Control Compression Shapewear Waist

I've been using Maidenform Shapewear for a while now, and it has become an essential part of my wardrobe. The shapewear offers excellent support and smoothing without feeling too restrictive, making it comfortable to wear for extended periods. It effectively enhances my natural curves, providing a sleek and polished look under various outfits. The fabric is soft and breathable, preventing any discomfort even on warmer days. Plus, the designs are stylish and discreet, with no visible lines under clothing. Overall, Maidenform Shapewear is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to achieve a smoother silhouette with comfort and confidence

I bought this to wear as a backup to my traditional faja (e.g., when it was in the wash). Although it is not as compressive as a real faja, it was very decent and provided nice smoothing. It is pretty breathable and not uncomfortable under clothes in the summer. It has only one row of clasps under the zipper, so no sizing adjustments are possible. I ended up sizing down from a large to a medium (190 lbs, 5'8", 43 inch hips). I have struggled to find a faja that covered my full torso since mine is longer than average, even for my height, but this one covers right up to my bra line. The gusset worked well for peeing and otherwise remained comfortably closed, but I needed to take the whole garment off to do anything else. Reasonably comfortable for shapewear. For the price, definitely worth a try.

Product works GREAT! This really slims you down in all the right places, without leaving your flab spilling over the top or out the bottom, and it's comfortable! The down side is the bathroom. It has a generous opening so theoretically you can go to the bathroom by simply sliding the fabric out of the way....but....I don't know if I can really pee without getting at least some of it on the garment...so, not sure I will be wearing this to my upcoming event....if I were just going to wear it for a few hours, it would be just fine...so I recommend the product for sure...but either make sure you have really good aim, or select it only for relatively brief events!

I’m 5’7” and 143 pounds. But I’m 52 and I’ve had two kids so I have that mom pooch that you can’t get rid of no matter how small you are or how much you exercise. I have a wedding to attend and just happened to find this product by chance. I have several other Maidenform spanx type products that are great but they still don’t hold that pooch in all the way. This item holds in everything and smooths and lifts the butt. I was worried that the zipper could be seen but it is not noticeable at all. My waist it perfect and my stomach is completely flat. I measured for a medium which I have in another Maidenform item but bought a small to see if it gave me a bit more sculpting and it fit amazingly well and did just what I hoped it would. Lifted butt and flat stomach!!! Love it!!!

This shaper was good in ways I didn’t expect. It lifted my large chest and gave me good posture (though my back did hurt a little while later- my chest is 36DDD for context & I’m 5’2-got the medium). It also cinched me in right below my chest & smoothed everything out. Onto the bad: it made my butt look flatter. Worst of all, it did nothing for my mid to lower stomach. I’m still looking for a shaper that actually has real control like my grandmother’s girdle lol. The material needs to stretch less and be thicker in order to cinch me in at the waist and thighs. In addition, if you wear something thin or tight, the seams of the shorts show through. So, this shaper is good depending on what you’re buying it for- though ultra firm it definitely is not.
