Open bust, because built-in bras almost never fit.
Most shaping bodysuits include a bra cup sized to a generic assumption, and if your actual size sits outside that assumption you get no support and a bad shape. This leaves the bust open so you wear the bra you already own and know fits — and the shapewear gets on with the part it is good at.
What it does
- Firm compression from under the bust to the hip
- Adjustable straps that work with a bra rather than fighting it
- Smooth edges under clothing
Who it suits
Anyone above a D cup, anyone who has given up on built-in shapewear bras, and anyone who wants one garment that works with their whole bra drawer.
Sizing
Between sizes, take the larger.
