Power Short

I am 5'4", 185 lbs., 44" bust, 37" waist, 44" hips, a 36H, and usually opt for an L in shapewear. I got an XL and L in these in the cafe au lait color, and it fit great everywhere for the most part. The XL was the better size. The color was great for the semi-tan white skin I have; most colors are so pale that they show through which these didn't. My only issues were that it is a little long for my torso (came right up to the base of my boobs) which caused it to roll down, and it almost felt like tearing when pulling them up and down. The nice thing is that the torso being too long was basically remedied by adjusting it to not be pulled up as high, and this didn't cause it to wrinkle at all. Highly recommend!!

I don't usually write reviews on products, but I thought this might help a fellow bride to be one day. I had been looking tirelessly for some heavy-duty shapewear to wear under my very unforgiving crepe wedding dress. I found these and ordered them along with a few different pairs to try. As someone who has owned their fair share of Spanx, I'll admit I ALMOST didn't even try these on when I took them out of the bag. I felt the material and immediately thought there is no way something this soft and lightweight is going to disguise what 6 months of quarantine has done to this plump body. I must have been feeling uncharacteristically optimistic because against my better judgment, I shimmied into these babies and prayed for a miracle. I hesitantly approached my full-length mirror, and HOT DAMN there was no turning back. Every lump, bump, pudge, and dimple was magically smoothed over, and I didn't feel like I would pass out at any given moment if I were to wear them for an extended period of time. The built-in "hiney shaper" that is meant to give you two distinct cheeks might be my favorite part of these bad boys. It seems as though all of my other shapewear gives you a firm derriere, but at the price of having one enormous butt cheek with no definition. The top did roll down a little, but I believe that has more to do with me refusing to go a size up than the actual product itself. There is a seam that runs down the back of each leg, so make a note of that if you're wearing something skin tight. I would not have noticed it but for turning around in the mirror-I couldn't feel it at all. Shout out to the Spanx team for making these. I was so pleasantly surprised when I tried these on, and I would encourage anyone looking for a product like this to give these a try.

Size up!! The medium was so tight on the waist band very uncomfortable after a few hours of wear. I’m 5’4 140ish and my waist is pretty small 27”. But this body shaper is lightweight and does smooth cellulite really well! Unfortunately, because of the light material it’s easy to poke holes especially with long nails. I ordered another one in large and it’s waaaaay more comfortable! So much better :)

After getting through the 3 layers of plastic wrapped in packing tape, found the packaging was horrible. Box completely torn and the circle seal tab was not stuck. The packaging was covered with some type of unrecognizable slime. Upon opening, it honestly looked like they had been worn. Tried them on over my other spanx just to see if I like the fit ... I ordered a medium since it said they run small. I'm 5'3 115 lbs so usually a small. The waist was so tight I couldn't breathe. I bought a pair of Red Hot Spanx years ago and am looking for a replacement if anyone has a suggestion. They are very lightweight, no roll up, no crushing my stomach. Just looking for something to smooth the cellulite.

Waist rolls down. The shorts themselves have a nice compression that holds everything in but the waist constantly rolls down. So everytime I sit and stand up I have to readjust them. Won’t be buying another pair.

Easy to wear

I bought these for my mom. She has had hip pain ever since she had a hip replacement. She doesn’t have any complaints about these (4 pairs). She gives them 5 stars.

Purchased these based on my size measurements, a they are sooo tight I can barely get them on. I’ve been wearing them for compression post-tummy tuck. They dig so hard at the waist and tend to roll down. I expected better. I have found cheaper brands that fit better.
