Maidenform Women's Cover Your Bases SmoothTec Shapewear Camisole DM0038

My personal favorite shaper cami. I have been wearing these for more than 10 years!! Firm but breathable!!!

So, this is excellent what I was looking for and more!! Longer, snug, and ‘not cotton-y’… I was looking for some good snug tops for yoga so that my tummy won’t show in poses. This cami is sooo much more than I had bargained for!!! It has a sort of double layer in the front that stops just below the breast area, so your midsection gets some extra compression, but your chest area feels less constrained. A Very Well Thought Out Design!!! It also has 2 strips of what seems to be a silicone adhesive strip that helps hold the back down so it doesn’t roll up. That’s where my only glitch with these lies, because I ordered 2, and one is perfect, and the other one started lifting (and has since been torn off) before it ever even made it to the wash. I’m tempted to try and return the second one, but I have already washed and worn it, so I’ll probably just keep it because I wasn’t expecting to have the silicone strips at all!! They were just a pleasant surprise!! … I’m not deducting a star for it because this overall cami/tank top is Sooooo Amazing as it is!!! But I am including pics so that if anyone gets one that looks more like the lifting one, they can return it and try for one that does lift before it’s too late to return it. As for myself, I may try and order a few more and use that rule of thumb myself. But overall, these are the best product of this type that I have ever ever owned!! And I love them!!

I’m enjoying this cami for the most part, especially for the price. It helps smooth the mama pouch a bit but not like full-blown shape wear does. It’s much too thin for that. I’ve been wearing it almost daily and no complaints until yesterday at the gym. I’ve worn it to the gym many times previously but this time was with a new pair of athletic (Nike) leggings. The cami kept sliding up the entire time I was on the treadmill. It hadn’t been an issue previously with other brands of leggings. Super uncomfortable for me and embarrassing to keep pulling it down every few minutes. I’d still recommend for everyday wear to help give a smoother look though. In fact, I’m purchasing other colors now. Runs true to size. I wear a XL in women’s tops and bought this cami in XL. There’s quite a bit of stretch so a Large may work as well if you’re between sizes. Washes well, I’ve hung to dry and tossed it in the dryer with no issues.

Pros: Fits great, does not ride up, and the straps are adjustable. Very comfortable.Con: The inner chest panel is very thin so your nipples may show. I wish it was thicker.

I just received this cami yesterday...pleasantly surprised that the material was more of a shaping but very light and seems comfortable. As per a majority of reviews I went with the size chart but the only thing is it's very tight across the back, in the bust. I'm about an 18/20 40-D just for an example. Now, keeping in mind that I don't often wear shapewear, but it flattens me out, which I do not want. With a bra would probably be better (just tried it on quickly). So I am ordering the next size (the biggest XXL). I may keep both or send one back, after seeing how this size fits. But overall, I like the lightness and support. Will update when I see how the elastic "holds" to keep it down or in place.

I have been wearing maidenform shaping camisoles as an everyday staple for quite some time. They don't make the lace bottom camisoles I used to love, but have many other styles with small differences and different names...A bit frustrating to find the right one. This one is not it! Lol.For those of you wondering if this is the one for you...This cami provides very little control/shaping (compared to the Maidenform Flexees). It provides more of just a light smoothing. The top portion is thin and a bra is visible through it. (If avoiding any compression through the bust area is important to you, this might be a positive for you.) Because the top portion is so much thinner than the mid section, there is a clear difference in the way it looks, making me not able to wear this as a camisol on its own.The straps are thicker than on the flexees, which makes them easier to adjust, however they wouldn't shorten far enough for me. (I am only 5'3")There us a Rubber-ish strip along the inside bottom hem to keep the tank/cami from sliding up, but in all honesty, it slides up more easily than my other control camis...maybe because thus cami lacks the firm control/pressure to hold it in place.Last note: I read people suggesting to step INTO these types of camisoles. I actually think this depends on your problem area. If like me, you tend to have a little budge above the bra area, pulling these on from over my head seems to control that a bit better! 😉I ordered 3, but will be returning the 2 that still have the tags. ☹️

This is the first time I have found a shaper that doesn’t creep up or squeeze me too much. Just ordered the white today. Love the black! Would be nice if there were cups in this to go without a bra but I still love it.

5'3 apx 110lbs, 34B/36A, 28" waist, 36" hips. Ordered both S and MI wanted some fitted but comfy camis for layering. I ordered an S and M because I didn't want too much compression, but both were insanely tight! The feel of the material was smooth as expected, but I'm not sizing up again because it's crazy the M didn't fit. I returned them and am looking for a better brand that runs true to size.The versions I purchased were Amazon Prime with free returns and I returned for free via UPS drop off.
