Maidenform Women's Ultra Sculpts Open Bust Romper, Ultra Firm Control Compression Shapewear Waist Shapewear (pack of 1)

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.

Good but wrong size

Most of these types of garments from large well known companies like Maidenform are junk that does nothing. This is not that garment. This is power mesh used in all the right ways. It snatches in your waist perfectly, and comfortably. I am 5'3", 205 pear shaped and I purchased a Large, I normally wear xxl tops and pants, sometimes xl. I'm 16 months Post Op for Gastric Sleeve and I needed a garment to hold in my sagging loose belly without causing backfat/spill over from the top of the garment. I'm happy to say this one, while not a full back garment, still does a fantastic job of hitting right at the bra line in the back and not causing any issues between the two. The compression is fantastic, and the garment is still easy to get on. The straps have a clip so if you aren't keen on trying to pee through the opening, you don't have to get naked to go, this is a HUGE plus in my book.

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've been using Maidenform Shapewear for a while now, and it has become an essential part of my wardrobe.

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.
