Okay, let’s talk about this strapless shapewear that’s been sitting in my cart for weeks. I finally caved and wore it to a wedding, a date night, and under a bodycon dress—here’s the tea.

First off, the anti-slip gel strips are LEGIT. I did the awkward bathroom mirror shimmy-test, and this thing didn’t budge. The straps? Meh. I removed them immediately (they kept loosening), but the strapless hold surprised me—no mid-dress panic adjustments.

The built-in bra is a win for small-to-medium cup sizes (I’m a 34B). But heads up: my 34D friend tried it and said the cups were laughably small. The open crotch design? Lifesaver. No wrestling to pee, just unhook and go.

Now, the tummy control. It’s medium compression—smooths without suffocating. My post-baby pooch looked flatter, but curvier girls in reviews said it lacked oomph. For reference, I’m a size 6 and got my usual size; sizing down might work for firmer control.

Material feels like a soft second skin, no weird lines under clingy fabrics. But after 6 hours, I did some stealthy thigh-seam adjustments—the shorts rolled slightly. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting.

Final verdict? 8.5/10. Perfect for strapless dresses if you’re petite-to-midsize. Larger busts or those wanting extreme compression might need to keep searching.
