Maidenform womens Firm Control High Waist Shapewear Brief Fl1854

I have bought several different brands of shapewear over the years, none of which I've worn more than once. I've never found a shapewear that could tuck my tummy in and not be tremendously uncomfortable. I just couldn't justify forking over big dollars for some of the other name brand pieces which might not work. So, after reading some of the reviews and scouring the internet for the best budget friendly shapeware, I decided I'd try the Maidenform Flexees. I'm quite certain if my husband had been watching me attempt to get into these briefs he would've ran crying - in laughter! I ordered a large because that's the size I normally wear (or a 12/14). I went to put them on and realized the name, Flexees, doesn't really do justice. Maybe brief/panty of steel would be better. I fought, wriggled, and wiggled until I finally had the garment pulled up and my post11-yr-old baby belly was finally the smoothest I'd seen in ages. I decided to try on my favorite jeans, which I had found to be fitting a little snug since the holiday, was actually loose. I'd say the Maidenform brief shrunk my gut by almost a dress size. That was pretty impressive in my opinion. The band of the briefs did no roll down as I found with other styles/brands. The legs were not too tight or uncomfortable. What I did not like was the sensation around my upper abdomen though. I don't like the feeling of anything pressing too tightly just below my rib cage. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to tolerate wearing the briefs for long because they felt so uncomfortable. The event came along, and I knew I'd be in these briefs for at least 6 hours, if not longer. I actually took an extra pair of panties along in my purse just in case I couldn't tolerate the shapewear. To my surprise, the longer I wore them, the better they felt; I ended up in them for about 8 hours. Taking them off was about as funny as putting them on - it took some effort - but donning them is definitely the hardest, however, it was worth the effort. I've worn these briefs several times now - I wash them in warm water and hang them to dry. If you've been searching for a budget-friendly shapewear which will not roll down, bind your legs, and keeps your belly tucked in, look no further! These are amazing - and I never thought I'd say that about an undergarment that looks like something I would've found in my grandmother's unmentionable drawer.

Outstanding - Great support - held everything in firm. Ordering more right now, but a smaller size as I have lost a lot of weight.

I bought two- the latte & the black pair. I bought a size Large, as I have 41” hips, and 37” waist. It takes a minute to go over my hips and lower stomach, but once on it’s fine. I’m short waisted, so this goes nearly up to my bra. (I’m 5’2”). It’s not super tight around my thighs. It has the silicone around the waist band to keep it in place. The crotch is cotton, so you could wear this without underwear. Or, to keep from washing it too much, you can wear it over your underwear. I washed them in the washer and hung them up to dry. I had no issues, but you might just want to hand wash them. Very nice quality, and it’s definitely good at controlling your middle. Made zipping up my shorts easier. My middle looks smoother in clothes, too. I probably could have sized up, but Large isn’t too uncomfortable.

Really well constructed, great body slimming and waist does Not roll down, definitely need to order a size larger than you normally wear ; However, it is not breathable enough and holds in a lot of body heat. Maybe good to wear under clothing in winter, but not in the warmer months. It is a little difficult to pull up but then it does provide great body control.

Okay, yes...yes...I have a tummy problem. There! I said it. I am an apple body person (not really news to anyone, but normally we just don't talk about it) Anyway, I got this because I paid WAAAAYYYY too much for my SPANX camisole and while I like the SPANX camisole, I don't like it $49 dollars worth. I had an old pair of Maidenform "sweet nothings" that I have almost worn out so I decided to shop Maidenform again. I found this and though I am 5'8" and 194 lbs, I bought the XL since I was on a mission to not look pregnant in my new top. Girls...do not hesitate to get one. It wasn't a hassle to pull up even though I might have gotten it on the smaller side. It fits me like a dream. Now, I admit I am a bit shorter in the torso than many 5'8" girls (okay women) probably due to my longer than normal legs, so it's a tiny bit longer on my body than I was expecting. NO problem, I just pull it up higher. But, the cool thing is it doesn't squash me in the least. It's designed to squash your tummy and muffin top, not anything below that. So it's very comfy indeed. I LOVE the slightly rubbery threads around the top. This does NOT roll over even if you slouch. and for the price, I'll take it even over SPANX. I live in a dry climate, but I admit when I go to a humid place and get sweaty, it's not as easy to pull down for the restroom visit and almost as much trouble to pull back up. But, even in a humid hot climate, it's not uncomfy to wear. I only wish I could find swimsuits made like this. (Is anyone out there listening?) Good luck with your tummy problem, friends.

I am just under 5"5 and weigh 148-150. I ordered a Large based on the size chart (I'm a 12, sometimes 10), thinking there was a possibility it might be a little large but I figured I'd err on the side of comfort since I've had bad experiences with shape wear panties in the past. When it arrived it looked tiny and it was difficult to get on but it turns out the size is just right. These things are suuuper comfortable. I wore them all day on Easter...lots of sitting, lots of binging, and they didn't give me that suffocating feeling in my tummy (where most of my weight is) nor did they bind or pinch anywhere....and stayed up all day easily!! They didnt flatten my stomach quite as much as I hoped, perhaps, but I guess thats the price to pay for being able to breathe, haha...and my dress looked much better and my tummy sleeker. Great find.

High Waist Shapewear Brief We’re nice I bought them August 15 wore them 2xs between then and September of my birthday and today Oct 3 I went to wear them and they chances apart at the seam as off they weren’t sewed properly. I’m very disappointed with this!

This product is great and at a much nicer price point than spanx, which are extremely over priced if you ask me. These shapewear undies come with a rubbery strip on the inside of the waist opening in order to keep them up. They did not ride down for me at all when sitting. The support part of the shapewear is extremely firm...it’s not a corset, it won’t change the shape of your body, but it does tuck in the jiggly parts quite a bit! It smooths out your figure to create a clean silhouette. *gross truths about using the restroom in these* There is no hole in the groin to use the bathroom like spanx or other brand have, but if you don’t want to pull it down each time, the panty part of the shapewear that covers your parts can easily be pulled aside because it is very stretchy and comfortable. *gross part over* This shapewear isn’t terribly breathable, so you may get kinda sweaty in it if you wear it in warm weather. However, it’s thin enough that you can’t see it under clothing. Overall, a really nice product for the price, definitely recommended!

Está cómodo, me ayudó contar con una faja no tan apretada e ideal para el postparto e incluso compre otra, la recomiendo ampliamente.

Makes you look great in clothes, what more could you want?

Not as firm as I wish, but comfortable

l'Ho comprata per nascondere un po' la pancia sotto un vestito e devo dire che lo fa bene , vesto misura 48/50 di pantaloni (sempre per colpa della pancia) ,ho preso la guaina misura xl (fr/uk/us, eu 80 c'è scritto sull'etichetta) non stringe, è comoda da indossare
