As pretty as it is powerful with a flat lace front and a silky smooth back, this all-in-one shaper from Bali® provides firm control with two-ply shaping panels for targeted smoothing where you need it most. One of the best things about this firm-control bodysuit is that even with all its holding power, it's remarkably light, which means it's incredibly comfortable. Plus, this briefer's smooth back has Bali's Comfort-U® shaping that provides extra back smoothing and helps keep the adjustable straps in place. You'll love the built-in underwire bra, which provides the bust support you need and comes in your choice of cup and band size - making this briefer a true all-in-one style. This one-piece body shaper for women has a cotton-lined hook-and-eye gusset for added convenience and lovely sheer-lace trim at the straps and legs.

Body smoothing perfection
Perfect,comfortable, holds in tummy, no weird back squeezes, smoothed out my whole torso. I feel great in it. The 38c cup size was right on. And i often have trouble with bras fitting well. I have wide bust area. Padded cups and underwire are great. Holds up that area very well , no bumps show through and great shape overall. And no thick stitching at the bottom area that shows through fitted pants. The lace makes it feminine& pretty too. I’m buying more in different colors. This is going to be worn often. Pricey but so worth it.

Been my staple for over a year and just bought more - my forever "go to"
I purchased this item in both black and beige about 13 months ago. I have been wearing one-piece shapewear exclusively for decades. I've invested in dozens of styles and ran into many problems which I describe below. But this garment not only sates nearly every desire for me, but it's also ridiculously underpriced compared to other products on the market. That's a good thing, of course.As for fit, I am short waisted and a bit think around the midsection. I have a lot of back fat and not much of a waist. I HATE any kind of bra or panty lines. I''m 5'5" and weigh about 173 (although I weighed as much as 189 when I purchased this item the first time). My normal bra size is between 38DD and 40DD, so I purchased the 40DD. My one and only complaint about the fit is that I wish I could adjust the straps to bring them up just a little bit more. This is probably because I am short waisted. Bringing "the girls" up just 1" higher makes a huge difference in how clothes fit me. Because I paid only $28-$30 per items, and because these items look no worse for wear after dozens of washes, I have no qualms about paying $10 to have my seamstress adjust my straps for me. I am still paying less than I paid for other shapewear that didn't make me nearly as happy.This has, by far, been the best for my purposes. Here's why.The fit is perfect. I have never found a fit this good with shapewear. The bra fits me perfectly and the body is very comfortable. It's easy to get off and on. I hate to wrestle with getting shapewear on. There may be times when I have a particular outfit that is really clingy or requires more definition in the bust when I wear shapewear with longer legs or a more defined bra. But for 90% of what I wear, this item is perfect.I wash my shapewear in the washer and hang it to dry because I wash them so often. I've slipped up a number of times and put them through the dryer. Unlike many other similar items, there has been no obvious damage to the shapewear. After rotating my seven pieces over the course of 13+ months, they pretty much look like they did the day I purchased them, although they are a slight bit more comfortable. Not loose by any means, just less stiff.I have found the stretchy lace one-piece items also work well for me and MAY have a bit more "suck in" action. However, the elastic in the lace seems to irritate my skin. As well, the elastic starts to decompose after very little use. So while they are prettier and have a bit more hold, as a daily item they don't cut it.If they made this same garment with a more defined bra cup, I'd buy 20 of them without hesitation. That's my only complaint about this item. I'm a creature of comfort and my skin tends to be easily irritated by tight clothes and direct contact with elastic. This makes finding the perfect shapewear a challenge. But today I am ordering six more of this style of body briefer even though my original seven are in perfect condition. I figured I didn't want to risk them being discontinued and sometimes it's hard to get my laundry done every week because of my extensive travel schedule. Obviously, I'm a huge fan and think you will be, too.

Good for a smooth look, not very firm
I bought this one-piece shaper a little while back, but waited to review until I'd worn it. The fit was really good and the garment is quite comfortable. It provides a smooth look under clothing (no panty lines, etc.), but isn't tight enough to do any firming (maybe if I'd bought a smaller size, but then the bra part wouldn't have fit correctly). I wanted it primarily for smoothing, so all good. The only downside is the hook and eye closure at the crotch is backward from any crotch closure I've worn before. I can't explain why having the hooks on the back part and the eyes on the front part makes it harder to refasten, but it does. Other than that, it's a good, smoothing undergarment.

Very comfortable
Absolutely love this, it fits nicely and it’s comfortable even enough to wear to work and wear all day so I bought 2 moreI modeled it for my wife and she said that I do look a little slimmer, and if it’s not uncomfortable she said to just go ahead and continue to wear them.

Fit: 5 Stars, Smell: 0 Stars
I got this to wear under a somewhat seethrough dress and it fit perfectly, to size. It smoothes things out, but will not press them in too much, which means, it is comfortable sitting down :-)The absolute DOWNSIDE is the freakin' chemical smell that did not disappear after washing, air drying or fabric spray! It has been hanging on a rack for over a month now, in hopes it would air out - my closet smells like a chemical factory!!! I am not going to wear it on a regular basis, who knows what toxins are in there???!!! What a shame. The fit and look is perfect, but the zero stars for smell pulled this review to a total of 3 stars, on a good day.

A comfortable bodysuit for folks who want smooth lines without a lot of compression
NOTE: I've been sizing up in this bodysuit for awhile now, but my latest order is smaller. It fits fine in my regular bra size, 36D. Now a 34D is too small, even though I'd already bought several in that size. I see this as a size correction on the part of Bali. I still love the fit of these, just be aware they're no longer sized large but, instead, like other bodysuits. From recent experience you should no longer have to size down.I really enjoy having a more comfortable bodysuit available again. I don't want Spanx or anything that squishes me that tight, just something to give me a smooth line under fitted or knit clothes. I did have to size down so I think this runs a bit large. (I went from my usual 36D to a 34D. This was key for me, and if the bodysuit is loose in the torso for you, I'd suggest you try this.) This bodysuit has everything I want and nothing I don't. It gives me no panty or bra lines, but it doesn't leave me feeling confined too much. It's comfortable and easy to wear for everyday or when I'm dressing up. Just don't buy this expecting a lot of compression since it is as stated "Ultralight." There are lots of heavy compression bodysuits, but the comfy ones (like this one) can be hard to find. Someone else mentioned the hook and eye crotch as being uncomfortable. It is a little bit wide for a smaller woman, but mine feels fine after one washing, which left that area not as stiff and more comfortable. I do wear panties under it, as with other bodysuits, so maybe that helps with comfort. I'm very happy with this underlayer and will buy more. My old favorite comfy bodysuit was discontinued, but this one is actually better, just as comfy but with a little more waist shaping.
