First impression? This bodysuit looks TINY out of the package – like, 'did they send me a doll's outfit?' tiny. But surprise! That super-stretchy 77% nylon/23% spandex fabric actually expands to hug curves comfortably. It's like a second skin that doesn't feel like you're wrestling into sausage casing.

The 'naked feeling' claim is legit – wore it under a bodycon dress for a wedding and forgot it existed (major win). The mesh panels are genius for breathability, though the lack of compression bra means bustier gals might need extra support.

Now the reality check: While it smooths things out nicely, don't expect extreme waist-cinching. My post-baby tummy got a soft blurring effect rather than dramatic hourglass transformation. The adjustable straps and snap crotch make bathroom trips less of a contortionist act compared to other shapewear.

Pro tip: SIZE UP if between sizes! Several reviewers (including a petite 110lb user) found it runs small. I'm usually medium but went large and got the perfect 'hug' without rib-crushing pressure. Worn weekly for 3 months with no pilling or stretched-out seams – holds up better than my $80 department store shapewear.

Final verdict? Ideal for subtle smoothing under date night outfits or work clothes, but powerlifters needing serious compression should look elsewhere. Just ordered the beige after living in the black one – that's the real testimonial!
