Well i got this to add a lift to a retro dress but it was so poufy i wore the dress alone. Since i am curvy the dress looked very nice on its own. However i did want to use the slip so i cut away one of the three layers. Still too poufy. Cut away layer two and it's just so darn stiff it's still pouch so i think i may not be able to use it. Will look for a softer option.
