I've never had a small waist, and this takes off at least two inches. Love it! Submitted from TheUndies.com

Too constricting. I would never make it a day wearing this.

It had a nice fit (for the most part) - it sucked in just enough to not make your torso look stiff and obvious that you're wearing shapewear - but the sole problem I have with these kinds of girdles was that it was too short ! It was either pull it all the way down (so that it would cover the bottom section of my stomach) and have my muffin top fluff out the top, or pull it all the way up and have my stomach hang out the bottom. It was an uncomfortable and hardly classy bulge either part - it wouldn't work out! My words of wisdom: unless you know you have a tiny torso, don't get this! These kinds of corset styles don't work well with people that have normal-sized torsos to long torsos. Get something that would guarantee you coverage.

Rago Response: This garment is made for the average torso. You should try a different type of garment for the more coverage you are looking for. We suggest Rago High Waist Long Leg Shaper Girdle 6207 Samantha from New Jersey, US

I am 5'8"; 28" waist; 37" hips. I read the reviews before placing my order and so ordered one size smaller (S ). I was thoroughly planing on enjoying this girdle and so also bought a XS in black as a few reviewers suggested to compare the fit. I thought I might like them both. I didn't Both these sizes fit me. The S is fairly easy to get into. The XS is more difficult, but possible. I find I like the shape the S gives be better. The XS shape seems exagerated. The XS would require alterations to the waists of all my skirts it reduces me so much! i much prefer the gentle hourglass shape the S produces. I will return the XS The XS also scrunched up the fat between the top of the girdle and below the bottom of my bra band. It is fine with me, because I'm a thin person without much fat. I wonder how it would go with a heavier woman though. I think if I were any bigger, I might want to wear a bra with a very wide band that overlapped the top of the girdle to minimize/hide this roll of fat. I like this girdle. It gives a very smooth flat tummied look. Carrie from Long Beach, ca

Buy one size smaller than you think you will need so that the cincher can actually reduce your waist. Or order two sizes to try and return one. I adore this cincher! I am also a designer and I recommend this to all my customers - who are mostly in the 20's and 30's- who buy my dresses. They LOVE it, too! I own this in two colors and it is the very best garment of its kind on the market. Does wonderful things for your figure and is super comfortable. However- rago! Please fix your sizing. This cincher is XS and fits me perfectly (I have a 26 3/4" waist) while I have their high-waisted "pants" style (girdle that is shaped like bicycle shorts) and the S in that style is too small for me... and I have small hips. That style is also a brilliant design but Rago needs sizing consistency throughout their line. K. R. from Austin Tx USA

Fantastic. I just wish it came in an ivory, peach or pink color. White is a little bright to wear against my skin tone. Amber from Idaho

It was too small. Did not match my waist sizes. Would be better with a zipper. The heavy duty garters make it look old fashioned and I believe anyone who is old enough to have worn a girdle would need a zipper. It would be sexier and easier to dress if it had smaller metal garters and a zipper. New customer

I ordered the Rago Waist Cincher a few months ago in black. I wear a lot of natural waisted skirts and do a lot of pin-up modeling. The sizing seemed right on (measure by waist/hips), and it easily takes an inch+ off my waist! The garter clips are very sturdy and never pop open. The only reason I am not giving this garment 5 stars is that when you remove the garter clips (to wear with something sans stockings) the little tabs that the clips slip into stick up (ruining the line of a pencil skirt), and the hem has a tendency to roll upwards if you sit down for too long (again, sans garter clips) I honestly love this product, and look forward to more!
