Didn't Work For me
Usually order an XL but since it wasn't available and after reading some reviews I took a chance and ordered this in L.....forget it! If you are considering it I would order up at least one size possible two. Has a lot of shaping to it but wouldn't attempt to try it on. I am sure for someone that size it would be a great deal and I would recommend it.

THIRD ONE!
I am happy with this cami. I purchased two some time ago and I just received my third one at a great reduced price. The fit and cut works wonderfully for me.

Don't get me wrong -- I love this shaper...
...I do love this shaper, but there is one flaw in the design. The adjustable straps have a hook on one end that attaches to a loop in the back. Sometimes, while pulling this on, the strap will come undone. I cannot reach behind me to hook it back on, so I must take it off again and hope that it will stay attached while I get it on.
But once I get it on, it is the best shaper I have ever tried! The fabric is not too hot during the summer -- but it allows your garments to glide and flow over it. There is absolutely no sticking, so the shaper is undetectable. Now that it is colder out, I am sometimes grateful for that extra layer of fabric, but remember, it is not made out of material that "makes you hot." Since I am over 50, I am grateful for this.
As to what it does. I have tried shapers that hold me in to such an extent that I feel like a little sausage! This shaper does not do that. I can be as active as I want to in this shaper. But it seems to smooth lumps and bumps on me. I especially notice this in the area often referred to as "muffin-top" (a horrible mental image that I'd rather not think about). I am smooth as can be in this -- and I love that! The other plus about this design is that is helps hold the girls up. It works with my bra but gives a little extra lift that works well for me. It doesn't roll up on me -- as other shaper have done.
I would actually give this shaper 4.5 stars -- only because of the hook and loop feature. My loop actually gave way and I sewed it together. Again -- I love this shaper. I bought one and came back for another. I would buy more -- even at this price. I would like to see other colors brought back and the hook and eye feature addressed.

Like it, don't love it.
I do like it, but think it is way to pricy. I like that it's long, but it still rides up...a little silicone strip on the bottom would solve that. It gives very light shaping, not as advertised. Also, for some reason, everytime I wear it, I sweat??? Oh well...I wish I could marry this one with the kymaro. That would be a great shaper.

LOVE THIS!
Went on easy...didn't have to fight and struggle to get this shapewear on. Once it was on...it smoothed out my figure and flattened up my tummy. I like the length a lot....it covered that 3rd roll beneath my tummy! Haha....
I'm a plus size gal 3x or 26/28 and stand 5'2" tall...I bought a 2x and it fit PERFECT!

Love this product!
I wear this ever day, doesn't make you feel like you are stuffed like others I have tried. Great fabric and I don't have problems with riding it up. I found that if you put it on the outside of your garments it stays down better, looks like a nice cami without the top part.

Love it!
Ok so I have lost alot of weight and have tried a ton of shapers to keep the excess skin in from weight loss. This one is great! it cuts low in the back and has thin bra like straps its going to work great for summer with tank tops and such. I got an XL but I probably could have gone down one size to a L. However it still holds my tummy in good even though I could have gone down a size. Even my husband noticed. Its worth the money. I got the mocha and its not too dark kind of a darker nude color. I like that it is a bit longer because it takes care of the muffin top and holds the lower gut in too!

Best!
This is by far the very best shaper I have every worn. It isn't bulky so clothes fit well over it without feeling or looking like you have on multiple layers. It doesn't ride up, shapes well and is super comfortable. It washes well too!

Awesome!
I'm 5'9" size 10 pants, 34 D top and I purchased this cami in Medium. This is the best lightweight shaper! I was looking for a little help in the mid section without squashing my breasts. This shaper does NOT ride up at all and is so darn comfortable. It holds everything in without any discomfort whatsoever. I was only able to purchase this in black and so disappointed that nude was sold out - so I"m going to purchase the mocha. You will not be disappointed with this quality cami! Go for it!!!

Way to long for a short woman
I purchased this product because I liked the fact that is was only a top. I also liked that it allowed me to wear my own bra. I was excited to get it home and try it on some new dresses and tops that I had recently purchased. When I tried it, the product is way toooo long, i'm only 5'4" and feel as though I am well proportioned, but this cami comes clear down over my but leaving an odd line on my hinny. When I tired to leave it a little shorter it just looked bunched up and made areas that are usually smooth not. Unfortunately I have returned this and will continue to use my Spanx, which seem to work better for me.

best smoother yet
I have tried many shapers and this is the best to date. I was looking for more of a smoother than a girdle and this was it. I usually wear XL, but got this in a 1x. Didn't really suck me in because I went up a size, but made my dress look good. Because I'm 5'2" this comes down over my butt. That's fine with me. Wore it dancing for 5 hours & it never rolled up once. This I can wear comfortably on a daily basis. Will probably order more.
