Impossible to get on

No, I don't recommend this

I couldn’t even get these past my hips despite being my size. I’m four months postpartum so maybe it was too soon to try shapewear!

Absolutely does the job you want.

Yes, I recommend this

I bought this item of clothing to go beneath a fitted mesh dress as I didn’t want any visible undergarment lines. I’m between a 10 and a 12. I bought a 12. They absolutely did the job, stayed put all evening with no rolling down and my dress and shape looked fab from start to finish despite eating an enormous Danish Christmas supper.

Yes, I recommend this

Allowed me to feel good in my new jumpsuit. Wasn't the most comfortable thing in the world but this was to be expected. So happy to take it off BUT it did mean I felt good in my outfit!

Does exactly what they say…

Yes, I recommend this

Bought for wearing under a vintage dress for a gala. Definitely gave me vintage vibes whilst wearing them with a lighter fit due to modern technology. Gave me a more streamlined fit whilst wearing them. Like any pair of body firming pants you need to allow yourself time to get in and out of them to use the loo.

Bit tight

Bought to wear under a dress for Christmas very hard to pull on and take off but it does hold in the wobbly bits I think after a couple of washes and wear it might be easier

Tight

These are quite tight, I would size 1 up. I found that they rode up. I'll buy a different leg too next time, think would be good if I'd taken 1 size up from what I usually wear though

So much better than more expensive competition

Yes, I recommend this

I recently had a bra fitting and the young lady in Silverburn M&S told me to buy these as they work really well. They certainly do. Really impressed, holds me in all the right places, they don't roll down. Would thoroughly recommend. Lot cheaper than more expensive brands

Waist cincher

No, I don't recommend this

This so called waist clincher came about half way up my thighs and refused to budge any further! I’m 5’4” tall and weigh 9st 7lbs so not exactly overweight.

Soft and Comfortable

Yes, I recommend this

Excellent quality- material very soft and a good fit . I am a plus size lady and followed advice on the internet to get normal size . (20) They fit great and synch me in . They feel soft and comfortable and I feel confident wearing them. I liked them so much that I ordered a second pair. Good price and value for money.

Great quality shape wear

Yes, I recommend this

Great shape wear, slims my waist so nicely and looks great. No pant line although if the material of the clothing is thinner it may slightly show. Only issue which I have with all shape wear is the fact it rolls down after a while so you do need to re adjust every now and again
