Sold my soul to the devil, July 6, 2008
This review is from: Flexees Women's Firm Control Waistshaper Thigh Slimmer, #3915 (Apparel)
I bought two of these because I have a couple of suits that show every little imperfection and I wanted to smooth them out.
This shapper most definitely holds things in and creates a smooth silhoette. What more could you ask for?
Do you like to breathe? If so, maybe these aren't for you. After wearing the shaper for 12 hours, I couldn't wait to get them off and breathe. I could feel the wires and I wondered if I had suffered internal damage.
The waist doesn't go up as far on my body as the picture shows. When I sit, the elastic rolls over and I have to keep pulling the thing up.
The pee trap (isn't that what people call it?) is useless unless you're a man. I could get more graphic about the problems with the pee trap, but just take my advice and don't use it unless you're a man! Really - it isn't worth it!!!
If I had designed this shaper, I would have sewn in a zipper on the side or front, since the shaper is so hard to pull up. A zipper would have made all the difference.
Having said that, I will continue to sell my soul to the devil until I get off my rear and work out. After all, it's better to look good than to breathe, right?

Great Product, February 26, 2007
This review is from: Flexees Women's Firm Control Waistshaper Thigh Slimmer, #3915 (Apparel)
I have been looking all over for a great bodyshaper to wear under my 2nd wedding dress for my reception (it is chiffon and you can see everything!). I am pretty thin and in good shape, but I wouldn't even be able to eat in this dress without it showing, so I wanted something to wear so that I could relax and not have to hold my stomach in all night and stand up straight constantly . I have ordered a lot of different shapers from Spanx (I love their products too), and another Flexees product that has the built in strapless (another great bodyshaper... my only complaint is the cotton gusset is really not easy to use, and the elastic on the legs gets pretty tight after a while).
This shaper is great because it does not fold over at the top when you bend (like a similar spanx product, you have to tape the spanx product to you), the gusset is easier to open and use than the other flexees products, and it does not cut off your leg ciculation, while making you feel like everything is staying where it should be and not jiggling or sticking out or dimpling =). I highly recommend this shaper! I feel thin and curvy and great in it!

Be advised--a little rough on the rear, January 28, 2007
This review is from: Flexees Women's Firm Control Waistshaper Thigh Slimmer, #3915 (Apparel)
The fabric is a little rougher than nylons and it doesn't feel too great at the end of the day. Also the stomach part does shape beautifully, but it does this with boning/underwire inserts. The "trap door" for trips to the bathroom doesn't really work. Prepare youself as you normally would to use the restroom and don't rely on this device.
