A Little Wonky
Date:June 3, 2013
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
Unlike the lighter version of this item, this was a little difficult to pull over my head without it rolling it up around my neck. It does have a nice tight fit without it being uncomfortable.

Love, love, love!
Date:April 7, 2013
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
I wear camis all the time with everthing, I feel undressed without out them. I normally would wear the nylon regular camis, but when I purchased this one it is all I wear everyday. I wear it so much this is my second black one and I also have the tan one. It is true to size and I love that it has the shaped area for your boobs, which helps them keep their shape while it controls the tummy and back area with a smooth controlled look!

better shaping from other products
Date:February 27, 2012
Pros: Comfort
Cons: Style
The unit has many panels adhering to the basic shell, allowing for changes in shaping. Still allows bulges to be seen vs a body shaper that snaps closed at the crotch. Is good for built in bra, and does stay down due to rubbery band material 2 inches at the bottom hem.

Really Helps with Middle Age spread
Date:February 6, 2012
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
Cons: wish it came in white
Helps a lot to hide some of the spread. Lots more comfortable than Bra. Threw out most of the Bra's except for Sports Bras. I wash them and hang up to dry. I plan on buying more!

Finally
Date:January 11, 2012
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort, it works
Cons: doesn't come in white
I have found the shape wear that handles the belly apron and tire around the waist! Usually I put on shape wear and look exactly the same but only feel a bit more snug. With this, I look visibly trimmer around the waist and tummy area. I am able to wear garments that otherwise do not fit in that area. Thank you Serenade for a wonderful confidence booster!

Help with roll up issues
Date:January 6, 2012
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort, smoothing
I almost never have a problem with rollup.. I pull the cami down to hips and put panties on top.. it stays smooth all day long.
Another thing is.. I never put them in the dryer.. I worry about the rubber on the bottom, plus they last longer.. I just hang them up in the closet.. after washing.. they keep their shape alot longer too.I have completely thrown out all my bras except 2..these cami's are so comfortable..I can go without a bra inside them, once in a while I will put on a bra if I'm dressed up.. but other wise no need and I'm in a 46C (put bra underneath Cami)
No more yanking bra down, underwire dig..bra bulge in the back etc.. blah!! I was forever..yanking and adjusting..and would frisbee my bra across the room..even before my shoes were off when I got home.. not any more.. these are so comfortable.
Yayyy!

Nice shaper
Date:January 2, 2012
Pros: Style, Comfort
Cons: Fit
Love how this shaper doesn't smush the breasts, but actually has breasts formed into it. It's tight/supportive enough, I can even squeak through without a bra underneath, and I'm a 46D. However, I'm also an hourglass shape, and the rubbery bottom gripper edge seems very tight around my hips. It does roll up frequently. I can usually get it to "stick" down again, but it is an issue. It's also great that the neckline is not too low--can use it as a true underlayer.

Super Great!

I have had bra "issues" for many years! I Love this camisole! It keeps the "girl" up (c- cup) and it does not ride up! It is super comfortable (I do not feel as though I have anything on). I bought four and I am thinking of buying the all in one! Thank you, Thankyou, Thank you and the "girls" thank you also.

Colly
City: Lake County

I love this!
Date:November 11, 2011
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort, does what i want it to do.
Cons: not enough colors
I got this because I wanted something to smooth my belly. The sales assistant recommended it, so I gave it a try. I love it. It smooths, it brings my tummy in a little (at my size, nothing is going to make me look skinny!), and I don't have to wear a bra with it. The only drawbacks: not enough colors, hot in summer, and you have to be careful placing the bottom band so it doesn't look like it's cutting you in half. Even though it shows a bit at the top of button blouses, I'm ok with that.
FYI: I usually wear a 48C bra but am losing weight and am starting to get into a 46C. I had breast reduction surgery nine years ago, and my breasts are not shaped like a lot of the cups of bras I try on. This cami is great for shaping to my shape.
Did I mention that I really, really like this cami??? Yes!

Better than a bra
Date:August 1, 2011
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
I've been using these camisoles instead of a bra for almost 2 years now. It provides comfortable support all day. I love not worrying about an underwire digging in or a bra riding up.
I've read the complaint about it riding up - I pull it all the way down over my stomach and have never had a problem with ride-up.
My only problem is during the summer - +100 degree days where I am - and I can get rather warm with this on, but I wear it anyway and it beats the bra alternative.

Not so good for my body type
Date:May 11, 2011
Pros: Style, Comfort, bust comfort a pro
Cons: Fit, Comfort, hip and bottom comfort a con
I purchased this item based on the other reviews stating that this camisole stays put, that it doesn't roll up. Well that isn't true for me. I have a smaller waist and larger hips and bottom. I can't keep this cami from rolling up. I love how it feels as long as I don't sit down or bend over. It's very comfortable in the bust area as I dislike the pinching and moving of normal bras and this cami doesn't pinch or move (in the bust area). I would say that if your body is even in the hips, waist and torso you would be fine but if your hips and bottom are larger you might consider another style. I plan on trying a one piece next time. Oh well it was worth the try but I shouldn't have been taken by the sale and should have purchased just one instead of two.

Really - this bra solves all of my bra problems. You won't believe the support to the breasts that this garment gives compared to others we've all tried. I have other brands, but I have to wear a bra under them. This one gives me enough lift without a bra, and my breasts are very large and saggy. It does take a little getting used to because your tummy is covered also, but even with that, it is more comfortable than any bra I've ever worn, and I've been wearing bras for 55 years! My shoulders slope and I'm constantly pulling up the straps, but because the back on this bra is razor style, the straps stay up. I was constantly reaching up my shirt to pull my bra down where it wanted to creep or or where the band was folding, but this one stays in place. Wires hit me in the wrong place on the sides - this one has no wires. I do have a fat tummy, and this does help it look more firm. I'm thinking that in hot weather this might be too much to wear, but I'll probably wear it anyway. It solves so may bra problems - it's the closest thing to going braless without looking braless. Order your bra band size.

WOW! This is amazing! A+++++
Date:March 8, 2011
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
I wondered if I should buy, but due to rave reviews I gave it a try. Well, as soon as I put it on I thought, "WHERE have you been all of my life?!?" Seriously, I cannot believe how wonderful it really is. My main hope was to pull in some of the stomach pudge, but this shaping/smoothing camisole is just fabulous. I don't even have to wear a bra with it! After standing there in amazement, I decided the true test would be the sit-down test (seeing if it stayed in place when I sat down). Well, at first it rolled up, and I was so sad, but then I realized it could stretch more, and I pulled it down below my belly, and it does NOT roll up! I'm totally hooked on this thing already. It is very comfortable as well. I'm SO glad I took the chance and bought two of these (one in each color). I highly recommend this camisole! Try it, you will not be disappointed!!!

Never dreamed it would do the job
Date:December 25, 2010
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort, not only a bra but gives you waist
Cons: none
I was just in the dressing room trying on other things and came out to find one of the camisole's on a hook outside the dressing room. I guess someone didn't like it. Looking at it and it being my size I thought to myself this has no wires how can it work but I gave it a try. It felt good but the price put me off until I seen it was buy one and get the other half off. Still kinda pricey but I got 2. I was shopping on my way to a short vacation. (Disney area) Well put one on and ware it the next day while out and loved it. In fact it's the only thing I wear now. Ordered 2 more.And will keep buying as the need comes up. In fact I told my sister and she has 2 on order right now. If you give them a try you will love them.

WOW!!!
Date:September 15, 2010
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort, feels like your not wearing it.
Cons: no cons for this product!
Need I say more. I was very scepticle when the lady at my Catherines recommended me to just go try it on. After I put it on all I could say it WOW! It is so awesome. I am very busty and have so much trouble finding a bra that will work for me. Underwires end up pinching and poking me. Straps slide off my shoulders. My shoulders hurt and my back hurts most of the time in my razorback or t-back bras I've worn for a long time. Thank God my bra was discontinued and I went looking for a new bra. I put this on and WOW! I just don't have any other words to describe this product. I have recommended it to so many people already. I ride motorcycles and went riding for 2 days straight and never had a problem with this. It felt as if I was not wearing a bra. I would suggest anyone to just go a try one of these on before you say it won't work for you. I was leary at first until I put it on and had to wear it home. No more backaches or shoulders hurting. No more sliding off the shoulders either. My breast do not get in the way of my arms any longer. Just try it on! You will be very surprised at how it looks and feels. You will be saying WOW also!

Excellent Bra Alternative
Date:July 15, 2010
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
I recently had a breast reduction from DDD-F cups to somewhere around a B cup. Standard bras mostly start at C or D cups, and the rare B's are still a bit too big in the cup. In addition, there's not much to standard bras structurally beyond the cups, as they seem to be designed for thin people where the only support needed is the breasts themselves. No surprise, I'm not thin, and now I have much smaller breasts, so I needed a foundation that fully supported the areas around my breasts and merely shapes the breasts themselves. This camisole does the job perfectly.
I no longer have bra bulges on my sides and back and my breasts are nicely shaped. I feel like this camisole was designed especially for me.
Also, this garment is extremely comfortable!

LOVE this camisole
Date:May 18, 2010
Pros: Style, Fit, Comfort
Was a little concerned about the price but this camisole is TOTALLY worth it! Gives support in all the right places and is the perfect length. Really like the fact that it provides coverage for lower cut tops but does not flatten the chest. Will NOT roll up - awesome!!! Breatheable material.
