Shaper perfect for strapless dresses. Worn for several formal events, this shape wear helps to keep things smooth. Four stays around the bodice keep good posture and smoothen bodice and hips. Very clean, lace is in like new condition. M/28, for reference I'm typically a 4-6, weight 133-135. Some Amazon reviewers recommend sizing up, I felt that to be accurate, any smaller would have been challenge to get on.
