When I first saw this shapewear I said my goodness this is too small, but I decided to try it on and to my surprise it fits (it’s supposed to tuck you in right )but I would have gone up a size for me but if you want it tucked buy your exact size. This ship where feels good on my body it is smooth light but also well-made love it! I will definitely buy more!

I would not size down on this if you have big thighs and a smaller middle. The legs do that bottom seam dig into your thighs thing. It wasnt the worst, but I will only be wearing this with thicker bodycon sweaters in the winter. Otherwise that thigh seam will show digging into my legs with thinner summer material dresses. Otherwise it compresses nicely. I do think this is actually compressing and not just smoothing My stats: 5'10, 31in waist, 43in hips, 36G Bra (perky implants). Thick muscular thighs, big calves.
