Correct size doesn't match true size. Buying this doesn't make you larger than you really are!
The size chart is correct...Sadly. As this does exactly what it says it does, I can't knock it down a star. But seriously, I bought this because I already feel fat!!!! Why does this brand size me at larger than a 3XL????? I bought this shape wear to boost my self-esteem, not make me feel like more of a whale! Due to my perimenopausal body, I have belly fat, that I can't get rid of, no matter what I do. So for my own ego, I purchased a 3XL (the largest available) I thought "it's just an inch and I could use the extra snatch." The 3XL fits, but I am sure a 4XL, would be much more comfortable. But I guess they just don't make these that size, which is sadly a normal US 10 or Large. I am 5'3" short waisted and the height goes from the bottom of my bra to a bit above my hips. My waist is 35.2"/hips 41.5". Dresses/shirts I wear a medium. I usually wear lower rise jeans. My pants/shorts/skirts/panties are usually large or 10, sometimes medium based on brand. This waist control shapewear, appears to be good quality and the price for a 2 pack is a great deal. I purchased this for a specific dress/event, where I really need to look...better than I actually do. I am using in combination with some hip dip shorts. This does not show through my dress, and definitely does it's job. Being a little over, 1 waist inch too small, it is not something I would wear daily or even for a full work day. I can see how others (who bought the correct size, feel it can be used day to day. I recommend as long as you buy the correct size. Read more
