Useless
These did virtually nothing and they didn’t stay in place at all.

Fit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wasn’t the best fit but the material was extremely comfortable. Fit larger than I normally wear. Would definitely size down because it feels good. The color is nice. The item is durable and breathable.

amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wasn’t expecting to love this as much as I do. I’ve tried a bunch of different shapewear over the years, but this one actually does what it’s supposed to do without feeling like I’m suffocating. It’s high-waisted, so it smooths everything out from right under my bra down through my stomach and hips. No rolling down either — it stays in place all day, even when I’m moving around a lot. The shorts part is a game changer too. It doesn’t ride up or leave weird lines under clothes, and it gives just enough support without squeezing my thighs in an unflattering way. I wore it under a fitted dress the first time and honestly felt so confident. It held everything together but still let me breathe and sit comfortably, which is rare with shapewear. It also washes really well and doesn’t lose its shape. If you want something that smooths you out without feeling like body armor, this is it. Definitely my new go-to.

Favorite shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are my favorite shorts to wear underneath dresses. I feel that they are very comfortable. They stay put and I feel that I am not constantly tugging on them or pulling them up. They also help to give your body a good shape without being too constricting.

Awesome
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are awesome. They are so thin but still help with smoothing out your body. I love that it comes with a beige and black pair. The fabric is definitely cooling and breathable. I wore these under a sun dress in Florida and I didn’t even notice I was wearing them. I like the little band around the legs. It’s not super strong but keeps the shorts from rolling. I had no issues with rolling and I’m plus sized. These fit true to size and aren’t as tight as some others so I would stick to your normal size. I would definitely recommend.

Not the worst, not the best
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got these to try to help control the belly. They fit well. However, as the description says, minimal support. Also, very slippery material. My pants tended to slide down the entire day. I didn't try with a skirt or dress on. I think wearing this under a dress would work. Probably not for a skirt, due to the material. Probably wouldn't get these one again, but that is because I'm very particular about my control garments. I prefer more control. If you're looking for something to help prevent chaffing, this would work well. Also noticed the little bit of rear end I do have, felt/looked non-existant.

Very Comfy and fits true to size.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got these for my wife since she’s recovering from cancer and she loves them. She wears them when we leave the house to go shopping for groceries or to the mall and she says they are so comfortable. They don’t ride up or down.

Light control
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I weight 135 pounds, 5'1 in height. The maidenform shorty is light control, so don't expect it to have a super hold. It is nice to wear under dresses and slim your figure without feeling so restricted. It is extremely soft and comfortable and tagless which is a huge plus for me.

Soft
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are soft and true to size. Comes in a two pack witb beige and black. No seams so perfect under a tight dress or alone for working out at home or lounging if desired. They are a bit longer than normal boy shorts.

Perfect accessory for dresses and skirts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This two pack of shorty undergarments was given gratis for a review. I actually owned a set previously. They are perfect under a dress to prevent chafing with long walks in the Florida sun. These are buttery soft, thin with a comfortable waistband and leg bands. They smooth you without constriction. They are true to size and have a cotton panel sewn in so that underpants are not needed.

Great for needing a little tummy shaping
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I agreed to submit an honest review for a free product to try, I loved the lightweight and stretch of these, they feel smooth when wearing them. If you are a little thicker I would suggest sizing up as it felt a little tighter than it should have been, but overall I liked them. I do wish they had a cotton liner on the inside. I didn't notice any shrinkage after being washed which is always a good sign. I would recommend these for someone who is looking for a little shaping but if you have a bit of a stomach from pregnancy you might need to go with a firmer fit.

Great Everyday Panty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot believe how comfortable the Maidenform shorty undergarments are. The fabric is lightweight and stretchy. The waistband stays in place and does not roll. It provides smooth and light control. It has become my everyday panty whether I am wearing dresses or pants. They have held up well after several washings. A definite winner!

Perfect light control
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Maidenform Light Control Shorty is exact what is needed when firm control is just too much.This shapewear garment smooths enough to help clothing fit properly and is very comfortable. A bonus that it came in a two pack of beige and black.

Smoothing panty
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this item in exchange for an impartial review. The panty provided smoothing eith very little lines on the legs. Stretch is limited, so be sure you order a large enough size. Came in nude and black colors, which can be worn with anything.

Good for avoiding thigh rubbing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 2 pack Shorty feels nice. The nude and black colors work with almost any outfit. The length is good, didn't ride up. The one thing I didn't like is the waistband was thin so it accentuated my fluff a bit more than I'd like.

I love how it smoothes out my mommy tummy a bit, I feel so confident wearing it. It has made my figure look so much nicer in my dresses!
