Spanx Women's Higher Power Short

I am very pleased with this product, i am a size 18-20 and i purchased a size E, they fit perfectly, they are an effort to get on i agree but they are truly worth the struggle! Smooths out all the unsightly lumps and bumps and makes my dresses look better by pulling everything in! They are seam free and have a two layered split cotton gusset, allowing you to pee through without fighting in a cramped cubicle to get them up and down every time nature calls! After trying them on the first time i too (as some other reviews have stated) thought i had laddered them in a few places, however on closer inspection i realised it is not ladders, the spanx are supposed to be like that, to make them give,i guess thats how they work!! Overall 10 out of 10.

Great value, lovely smooth fit and created the shape I actually wish I had. I ordered size C (which is a large) - fits well for me at a size 12 (with a very large bottom) and 5'5. May have been able to get away with the size B. Really comfy... Don't like the toilet 'flap' , just pulled them down!

I sent the larger size back as I thought a smaller one would do the trick better. I suppose the flesh has to go somewhere as it didn't make too much difference really, only harder to get on. Keeps the stomach down a bit I suppose and the unslightly under arm rool of fat wasn't so pronounced. A slimmer lady would benefit more but then why would they need one anyway?

Great product!It's hard to put on the first time, and I would expect it to remain a lot tighter. But is excellent for every-day-use.Something that worried me was the "visiting the loo" fact... Thank god it has a small opening that allows you to visit the loo without taking it out.Super comfortable, is just a shame is not as tight as I would like.

It fit well, it did the job, didn’t roll up, but I only got to wear it once because when i was putting the shorts on me…a big hole appeared on my buttocks, it’s ripped now. And I didn’t force it at all! 😤

This are great as underwear, they give support in all the right places and are simply undetectable.I have a big post baby tum and they actually did hold everything in quite well - felt really great in them.Will certainly recommend to others to buy as they are worth every penny, they are!Update 13/07/13Above review was after excitedly trying them on for the first time, to see if the size was OK.However, next time i wore them, it was for 7 hrs straight.On taking them off, was mortified to discover a large ladder running from the back end of gusset all the way up the back of these!It is needless to say, that i was utterly and thoroughly gutted!I mean, i only got to wear them properly just the one time!Well i would therefore have to retract my sentiment about them being well worth every penny. Nah nah quite the opposite actually.In present day economic scenario where one watches every hard earned penny spent, a girl certainly wants to purchase products that "Do what it says they do on the box" plus are durable and a class act as well.

Don't go by the size guide, I am 5.4/140lb size 12 bottom and 8 top and I buy a size D and they fit perfect. They won't make a fat person thin, they just hold bits in place and going up the sizes means no tightness under the chest and on legs - perfect! No thigh grippers means no lines or ridges If you have cellulite on your thighs. My aunt is a size 18 and couldn't get the size D up her thighs!! But the chart said to buy a D!!

I'm a plus size fit model for a national high street store thus I know my measurements and ordered accordingly. The product is sized very small.
