Okay, let me start by saying I was *skeptical* about this shapewear. As a curvy girl with some post-weight-loss tummy, I usually avoid thongs like the plague. But wow, was I wrong!

The high-waisted design actually *stays put* (no rolling!) and the boning is invisible but effective. It smooths my apron belly without feeling like a corset from the 1800s.

Wore it under a bodycon dress for a wedding - ate a three-course meal + cocktails and still looked snatched! The butt-lifting circle detail is subtle but does give a nice lift.

Only con? There's slight muffin topping at the ribcage if you're short-waisted like me. But for $20? 10/10 would recommend to my thick-thighed sisters!
