I tried this product because I I tried several types of shapewear with no luck,. In fact they seem to make it worse! I bought this piece, I'd had it for a little bit over a month and I tried it under a pair of high-waisted jeans that would barely button. I put these on, and I was easily able to put these jeans on. I literally thought that I was going to have to buy a bigger size. This works well under jeans, I have not tried it with anything else. But it makes me feel supported, and it flattens my belly lol I'm in the process of making some healthier changes in my life and I really did not want to buy new clothes. This literally saved me from having to do that at this point.
