The torso is very long indeed, and I am a tall person, not quite 5-9. I guess it would work well for very low pants, but that's not what I usually wear.

This was easy to get into if you follow the directions and step into. However, the back smoothing was disappointing. I have better results with a good well fitting bra. I would send this back but the tag came off while pulling on. At least it will be warm in the winter

Everything is fine with this garment except it rides up or rolls up depending on whether it is tucked in or worn out. I've tried stuffing it into my underwear, but that doesn't help. I'm disappointed because it shapes my torso nicely, it eliminates that bulge between the breast and the armpit, and it gives very good support but because it rides or rolls up from the bottom, I seldom wear it out.

wonderful idea, but my torso too short for this garment.

Disappointing. a 36B is not a medium?? Garment is extremely difficult to get on and off; fabric is much heavier than expected. Did nothing for shape, front or back. Sent back for refund.
HerRoom Response: Sassybax products fit by pant size - not bra size. It's possible you were not in the right size. Please see the sizing chart.

Sizing is off by at least one size. Can't breathe in the small though I followed the sizing chart when I ordered. Very upset with the money I threw away!!
HerRoom Response: This is a compression garment, and everyone has different tolerances when it comes to compression. We would suggest you try the next size up.

I wasn't sure I was going to like it because other garments like these tend to roll up but this was very comfortable and stayed in place. A little expensive but I will definitely buy another!

Please be very careful about the size. I am 5'2", weigh ii4 lbs, wear a 4-6, bra size 36A, and a small frame, and the small was way too small, and actually cut into my skin, leaving red marks. Definitely order up a size! When I tried the medium, it fit well, and is comfortable and does shape beautifully.This garment does tend to roll up at the bottom, but I don't wear extremely low cut waists, so this is not a problem for me. I just adjust it if needed. The overall support and comfort outweigh this inconvenience.

Despite the heavy ribbed fabric, I was surprised to find that this camisole was comfortable to wear even on a brutally hot day. Does a great job of smoothing out bumps and bulges, stays put, and really does eliminate back fat. Like it under close-fitting shirts and tunics, but not so much under tees and sweaters. The bra cups seem to smush rather than shape my D-cup breasts, and don't provide any lift. Probably works better for those who take a smaller cup size.
Catherine, ChicagoApril, 2008, Size: XL
Please consider ordering up a size. After wearing the small for a day, I had red marks at the shoulder and underarm, and obviously the torso trimmer was too small. Please note that I am 5'3", weigh 115 lbs, take a 36A bra, and a size 4 or sometimes 6 pants, and therefore fell well within the guidelines for sizing offered by Sassybax through Her Room. Because I wore this garment, I cannot return it. This was an expensive lesson! It's a great product, just ignore the guidelines, and order up a size.

I FOUND THIS GARMENT COMFORTABLE. IT MINIMIZES THE "BACK FAT":)& I LIKED THAT IT DID NOT RESTRICT THE BUST AREA. I AM A SIZE B CUP & FOUND THE TOP PART OF CAMISOLE WAS AWESOME - GOOD SUPPORT & NO UNDER WIRE! IT IS BEST TO WEAR WITH JEANS AS IT WILL ROLL UP ON YOU (JEANS HELP KEEP IT IN PLACE). IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GARMENT TO WEAR WITH PANTS - IT IS GOOD. I LIKED THAT IT WAS NON-RESTRICTIVE.

I loved the product although I had to send it back for another size. The problem that this process of exchanging the item could be 4 weeks. That is a problem because I probably won't order from here again if it takes that long to exchange a product.
HerRoom Response: Our normal turn around time for an exchange is one week. If it takes longer, it is because the manufacturer is out of stock. Once an exchange is received, we notify you if the item is on back order with an expected ship date.
