Naomi and Nicole Women's Unbelievable Comfort Step in Torsette

This is a wonderful product. It is light and supportive and stays put (if you get the right size & wear cotton panties instead of silky ones). DO NOT put it in the dryer. It will destroy the gel at the bottom. If you wear it often & sit a lot in it, the pressure against the sides can make it break down quicker, which is the pictures that other people have shown. It is such a lightweight product that you're gonna want to wear it all the time, so you'll need to buy it again in 3 months, But it smoothes you where you want lifts you where you want and covers all back fats or bulges from the under arm at the bra. My suggestion is step into it, then pull the sides up one at a time, getting all your curves where you want them to be. I am 5'4" 170 lbs, had 5 children, purchased these 8 times, it holds & shapes all the loose skin giving me a lovely figure as well as support for my back. I purchase size medium for when I know I'm going to be standing most of the day. I also have a couple in large if I know I'm going to be sitting for long periods of time like road trips or flying. If I worked at a desk all day, I would probably only purchase the large but I work a job where I stand most of the day. Hope that helps!

love this item, holds in my back fat bulges. also lifts my boobs. Hard to get on but it does the job once i get it on. recommend

I like this garment very much, but a couple things you should know. I bought the same one previously at a department store. It was a size extra large. I normally wear size 10 -12 clothing, so XL would normally be big for me. But in this garment I think you need to buy one size up. So, I already knew that I needed XL and it fits me fine. Just a heads up that you should go up one size. Last thing, I bought this one online because the one I bought in the department store tore at the left side seam within 3 months of buying it. It's not like I'm huge and trying to fit into a size too small - it was an XL after all. So, this was a replacement, and I did notice on the tag for the new one that it offers an unconditional guarantee. So I am going to figure out how to send back my old one and hopefully get that one replaced, as I wear this one very often and it would be nice to have a second one. But just beware that the side seams may tear.

True to size, comfortable, stays put. I am very happy with the quality and have just purchased another. Note: If you have very large/heavy upper arms, the armholes may be too snug for you.

Runs small—had to go up a size. The body fit well and was very comfortable until I attempted to place my arms through the straps! The straps have little flexibility and no adjustments, and after I struggled to get my arms through, there was not enough strap length for it to extend from my shoulder to the bottom of my bustline. It’s overall length was fine, but the length of the straps did not work for me. They cut into my armpits, and the upper portion covered the lower portion of my bust.

This is not a shaper.... it doesn't hold anything in . I sized according to their chart. It was extremely long on me. I don't think sizing down would make a difference in its support. It's very stretchy. It did stay in place pretty good but I wore it next to my skin, having wore this style of shaper before. If it had supported my tummy better, I would have rated it higher.

I highly recommend this shaper top over all the others. It does what the others can’t, as the others flatten your breasts. Yes, the others are looser in the breast area, but that looseness goes all the way around, however, thus flattening your breasts AND emphasizing your side back fat. this shaper smooths out your back fat and smooths out your side fat above the waist. Now mind you, this shaper is not to make you look thinner. That is called eating less. If you should try to use a body shaper to make you look thinner, you are just going to end up looking weird because it will merely push your fat to other areas. What this shaper does is smooth out your bodies irregular curves so that your clothes hang nicely. I recommend you order TWO sizes larger than your regular. It will be wider for your back and not dig in anywhere around your hips and still smooth you out. The best part is that people won’t really feel anything when they hug you unlike the ones with vertical stays around them.

I have used this brand before, love it and so searched and was so pleased to find it. The price is great. The fit is great and I know how long these last! Comfort, feel good, look good, all in one. Highly recommend. Now will try and find same one in black. Good news is, you do not have to be a contortionist to put it on!
