Let me start by saying this bodysuit is a GAME CHANGER. The first time I tried it on, I struggled a bit (pro tip: wiggle into it like you’re putting on skinny jeans after Thanksgiving dinner). But once it’s on? Magic. The X-cross design at the midsection instantly gave me an hourglass shape I didn’t know I had, while the open bust let me wear my favorite push-up bra for extra oomph.

The real MVP? The butt-lifting double hip hem. Paired with thigh-smoothing fabric, my silhouette looked so polished under a bodycon dress that my friend whispered, *Did you get work done?* Nope—just this $30 miracle worker. The open crotch design is genius for bathroom breaks, though the lace leg openings did roll slightly during a salsa dancing night (thick-thigh solidarity here).

Comfort-wise, it’s shockingly breathable for compression wear. I wore it through a 10-hour workday + happy hour without feeling like a stuffed sausage. Postpartum reviewers aren’t lying—this thing restores pre-baby confidence. One mom wore it clubbing with a sheer top (iconic), and I totally get why.

Downsides? If you carry weight in your upper tummy (post-tummy tuck folks, listen up), the middle mesh section might not give enough support. And sizing is TRICKY—when in doubt, size up! My usual medium felt like a corset torture device; the large was just right.

Final verdict: This isn’t your grandma’s girdle. It’s comfortable enough for daily wear yet powerful enough to make Spanx jealous. Whether you’re postpartum, hitting the club, or just want smoother lines under work slacks—this bodysuit delivers. Just maybe practice your *Megan Thee Stallion knees* before wearing to weddings.
