doesn't work bunched around your waist!

Prostight, slippery, useless
I am getting a bit old and floppy, so I bought this to wear under a formfitting dress for a formal occasion. Upon walking around and sitting and standing, it rode up and settled in a tight little donut around my waist. Went to the ladies and re-settled the danged thing. It rode up again. I thought maybe I had got the wrong size or something, but i see from the other reviews that this is not an unusual occurrence. Now think about it. Large curved bottom and a tight slippery fabric. If I need to deal with my tummy again, I think I'll try the underpants.

The new fabric and styling of the Slimplicity is more pretty and feminine than the regular Spanx line. I had high hopes for this product but was sadly disappointed when I tested it under a loose, summer, shift dress. Like others have reported, I found that upon sitting down in a chair or car, the entire slip rides up and bunches up around the waistline. It didn't just ride up a tiny bit, where one can quietly reach under the hemline and tug the bottom down. It rode up completely around the waist like donut or lifesaver. It's the strangest thing. My sizing was checked by the saleslady at purchase, and it wasn't too small, especially because I wasn't looking for a slimming product. The material is definitely satiny and slippery. Perhaps this is the cause because, while attractive, the material has nothing to "grab" onto to stay put.
If you do consider buying this item, the slimming properties are not as strong as the regular Spanx product. I wouldn't suggest going a size down because it could possibly emphasize the riding-up issue.

Prosgreat shape
I wear these under my suits and dresses. Love what it does for my body. Slim-plicity is my favorite among Spanx products.

NOT good.

This thing was a nightmare. When I stood still in front of the mirror it looked great on! Perfect shaping, very flattering, and the slip itself was cute and not something I would embarrassed to be seen in (at home ladies, not saying I would wear this outside the house alone!)
But... the minute I took two steps... the skirt started riding up. Thought maybe I could just keep an eye on it and make it through the night. By the end of dinner the entire bottom half of the slip was bunched up around the center of my mid-section. It was horribly uncomfortable, and horribly unflattering. I can't just pull the thing down in the middle of the dining room, though it felt just as awkward to walk to the ladies room with it bunching all around my middle.
Ugh. I'm assuming this thing has got to work for some body shapes, but it definitely didn't work for me. Definitely going to be taking this back, even after wearing it for a night. It was way too much money for something I will never wear again, and wish I hadn't worn at all.
