Very comfortable smooths out all the lumps and bumps. It does ride a little but does the job better than support pants.

The slip dress (I now own 2!), was tricky to put on, but once on and all the 'bits and boobs' were tucked in I didnt notice I was wearing it. I wore it under the Jessie Velvet Maxi and everyone commented on my outfit and slim figure that night! Only issue was it pushed my boobs up a bit more than normal bra - otherwise its a total winner!

I had such high hopes for this, something that can be worn with any bra and creates a tight, smooth body under dresses. When I first tried it on in the shop it was perfect, created a great shape and smoothed out all lumps and bumps, I couldn’t wait to wear it under my clothes. Unfortunately like others have found (wish I’d read reviews first!) the skirt rides up constantly when you walk more than a few metres and ends up bunching up around your hips. I spent a whole day at work constantly having to pull it back down and, after trying again on a couple of occasions and having the same trouble gave up. Complete waste of money.

In all the years I have used this site this is the first time I have returned anything. I was looking for support around the tum and bum as well as no VPL so I could wear form fitting dresses . This item is labelled as firm control, I disagree, it is light control. If you have a good figure and you just want no vpl then this may work for you sadly not for me. I wear spanx normally which are a bind to get into but once in place do a good job. This was easy to get into but I felt like it really did nothing once on. There is a 'knicker' inside which also meant I couldn't wear support pants as well. Not a brilliant finish either there is no hem on the bottom just a rough edge. Sorry overpriced too. If in the future you stock something along these lines but perhaps with control panels in the middle I would buy it.
