It rolls down so I can't wear it from fear it will roll down in public. I like spanx, just not this shape.

I tried this to go under the BCBG Max Azria dress I bought but I looked better w/o it. I don't know how people (like the Kardashians, who swear by Spanx) do it, but yuck. For me. I was really hoping they were comfortable but they weren't. At all. I love the bras though.

I recommend working out. LOL

I wore this under my wedding dress to smooth out my shape. It worked great! It was a little tight when putting on, but once it was on, it stayed put. I was concerned at first when I read about it rolling down on top, but it did not roll down! I did tuck it under my bra just in case, but I did not have a problem with it. The only issue I had with this product is the fact that it is all one piece. It was difficult to go to the bathroom with this and the wedding dress. It would have been nice if maybe they were two separate pieces. I looked for something like that but did not find one. Overall, it is a great product and made me feel more confident in my dress. I highly recommend this Spanx!!

Self confidence in a package! I needed just enough help to wear a fitting dress. Spanx High Power Briefs were just the trick.

So...these are pretty awesome. As stated in a previous review, these do run a little long. That person was short, but I'm 5'9 and it's even a little long on me! I also have the SPANX IN-POWER LINE SUPER HIGH FOOTLESS SHAPER and these run a little bigger than those so I don't feel as sucked in but then again, it isn't a battle of epic proportions to get these on either.

Spanx are wonderful. Very comfortable and easy to wear. Zappos is pretty cool too. I ordered these on a Thursday afternoon and received them the next day.

This is a great item that pulls in and smooths out all your bits and pieces. It is very comfortable and does not ride up or roll down when you are moving. Some of the reviews I read mentioned that it may be too long so I would strongly recommend following the size chart closely. I have no real issues with the length as the material is very stretchy and you can pull it up as high (or not) as you want. I highly recommend this product.

This item is extremely comfortable, and offers nice shaping. But beware, the seam up the front can been seen through fabrics.

I absolutely feel naked without my Spanx shapewear. I initially purchased the wrong size based on the chart, but after I got the right size, I never looked back. I wear it with a dress and with slacks. Does the job for me.

I love this. It gives a great hourglass shape and makes me feel tucked in and confident. It doesn't erase any trace of belly fat but smooths everything out so it looks good. I was right on the line between a B and a C on the sizing chart and I went with a C and it's very comfortable. Good buy for the price I think.

Every woman should own these. I'm a big chick and they smooth you like nobody's business. Plus, they're so comfy you don't want to take it off. And even if you're fortunate enough to be thin, everyone can benefit from being a little smoother and a little firmer. It stays where you put it - doesn't roll either up or down. So there, get yourself some Spanx. (Oh, and don't let me forget - they last forever and wash like a dream.)

This was my first Spanx purchase and I was pretty happy with it. I am 5'5, 115 lbs. and since having a baby any extra weight goes right to the "baby area." I got the size A and it smoothed me out and held in my belly just enough to give me a little confidence boost in a form fitting dress that I wore to a wedding. The waistband came up to just below my bra and I didn't have any problems with it rolling down or showing through the dress. I would have preferred a thong style, but I didn't have a major problem with panty lines or constant wedgies. I wore it for about 10 hours straight and didn't really think about it too much during that time. This week I put it on to wear to work and decided against it after 10 minutes - too tight for every day wear when it's not "necessary." The product is not an attractive under-garment or especially comfortable, but I didn't have a high expectation for comfort or style from a girdle!

This is the best and most comfortable shaper I've ever worn. I've had other Spanx, but the kind with legs. Getting into those was a production, while this is like an extra five seconds more than putting on normal underwear. I usually wear thin panties as a liner under them, so I can get more wears out of them before washing. I truly love these and am about to buy several more. I literally don't want to leave the house without them on! I'm 5'3, and it's a little tall, but I bra-tuck it and go on my way. E was a good fit, and I'm an 18/20.

Too many seams! A seam down the middle of the stomach and also one across the bottom. If you are wearing a tighter dress or shirt you can see these seams.

Perfect for under skinny jeans and shorter sundresses. The briefs leave no panty lines.

Love it! Read reviews about it rolling down but I didn't have that problem. I tucked it under my bra, as recommended & I was fine.

This is my second piece of Spanx. I first got the half-slip and I like it, but the half slip does ride up after a few hours. This brief makes me feel like I've got the same waist-cinch as the half-slip, but it doesn't ride up. I'm a size 16W in dresses and I bought size D. I was close to the line between sizes and I'm glad I went up a size -- I would not want this any tighter - especially since you have to pull it down to use the bathroom. I hate having to fight with undergarments.

1st pair of Spanx - can't believe it took me this long to catch on. Love them & definitely recommend to smooth out those female bumpy areas. After 5 hours it got a little hard to breathe, but I was told I'd get more used to it each wear.

Bravo for style #234...........I have several different styles of Spanx, but there are no words to describe how much this does for me.
I have an abdominal hernia and could cry with a closet full of clothes that I could not wear any longer because of the hernia.....the tummy, the tummy.
Thank you Spanx for style #234. It does the trick.

I love these! They hold me in without making me feel like a stuffed sausage. I can wear them all day and not even realize they are there...also, they wash well, so you don't lose the elastic.

I really like these Spanx. I have 3 pairs. I am 5' 6" and weigh 123lbs but still have a gut (not a spring chicken, anymore), but the Spanx help to flatten me out and keep me smoother against my old tight fitting dresses. I highly recommend them to anyone that needs a little help with a little or larger gut. They help.

I live for Spanx! This panty in particular, as it's "user friendly" in the restroom! Smooths out any stray bumps or bulges. Don't expect a miracle, but you can expect to feel like a million bucks!

Bought this for a wedding and it was great. I have a short torso so it was a little long. I just folded the top over and it was fine. Wore it under a satin bridesmaid dress so folding it over wasn't noticeable. Wish it came in different torso lengths. Very comfortable, wore it for 12 hours.

Works very well, hides pretty much everything and no lines. The only issue I have is that the top rolls down a lot and doesn't stay up. Despite the rolling, I still love and wear these often.

If you can manage to yank it up, it works great! It works better than the tank top, because it doesn't "ride up"...and is great for dresses. It is quite comfortable once you put it on. But I can imagine some cringe-worth moments, say if you have to use a loo, while out at a pub!
