When this first arrived, the size looked terribly small, but it stretched, shaped and molded quite well. It was good support under my dress to a wedding, and I absolutely loved the idea that I could wear my own bra underneath.

The biggest issue I had were the straps. They hurt so bad. They actually left red dig marks in my shoulders (and arms when I had to move them off my now raw shoulders). The straps are hard and ungiving, and they barely make it past the edge of your shoulder, so they make this impossible to wear with a strapped gown without forcing them in with the use of pins. I finally, halfway through the wedding, had to remove the straps and hope the shapewear would stay up because I couldn't take the pain anymore. It was really quite horrible. I think if the straps were a softer material, this wouldn't have happened.

In fact, in order to wear this again, I think I will be buying my own material and creating new straps. I would never wear this again with these straps.
