Va Bien Response: May we suggest that you order one size larger? Normally the leotard back offers great back smoothing, although it does dip a bit in the center to accommodate most dress styles, which many customers like. Eloise from norman, oklahoma
Va Bien Response: Thank you for your feedback. We actually had the same idea that you did and made a style similar years ago but it didn’t sell, we had to discontinue it. We will take your feedback into consideration though as we continue to try to come up with winning designs. ERW from Holland, Pa, USA
Vabien Response: This style does not have underwire cups, which poses a design challenge to lift and shape the bust in a full figure garment. That cotton ring around the cup that you noticed is a sling to help achieve this. Cups without underwires will never provide the same bust shaping and support as underwire cups – but some women prefer them because of the extra comfort. t from oklahoma
HerRoom Response: We have sent this to Va Bien and they have made a note of this for future reference. Karen from Chicago
I'd originally chosen this item because it was one of the few firm control shapers with a low scoop back, which was great. Also, the wide straps felt great too. Finally, the firm tummy support was nice.
I ended up with a similar shaper by another manufacturer that had molded cups and a shorter body. Rachel from Brooklyn, NY
