I’m 5’6 and 135-140lbs. I typically wear a 4/6 in jeans. I ordered a small. I’ve always had a little stomach. When this came I could immediately tell the difference! I won’t have to worry about my “pudge” in dresses anymore. Left pics are without the trainee, right is with the trainer.

don't even bother
If I could give this zero stars I would. I have seen a better waist trainer, for this price. This thing is ridiculous. Don't waste your money, look for something better and the sizing is off as well

so far so good
I’m 5’4” 155lbs. I ordered the medium. After 3 wears, I’m on the second row of fasteners. I noticed after already wearing that one of the pieces to latch onto is missing. This is my first time ever wearing a waist trainer, so I don’t have anything to compare it to. I will say that it does it’s job and my clothes wear so much better with it on, giving me a boost of confidence. Gave 4 stars because of the missing latch and because it has more give than I’d expect in a waist trainer. The material is soft so it does lose its shape a bit too along the top and bottom, especially if you have excess fat/rolls/skin, which I do.

no stars
It’s not made for women who wears XL-5X at all . An XL is a small . Just made for women who are skinny or got there body done . Don’t go for the hype because of the brand .

Doesn't cover much of your torso!
This is very narrow and does not help your lower stomach at all. It is a neoprene feel which is nice, but just not enough length to cover all your trouble spots.

don’t buy
This is comfortable yes but after one wear lost its form and it’s not longer looking nice . I went from the first row to the last one in only one day and I got one size smaller than my usual size . Save your money and buy something else .

Do Not Know How to Manipulate This
Surprisingly a lot easier to latch each and every hook this skims waist trainer has, as i have no nails (so i’m not sure how torturous this will be when i DO get my nails done for the wedding). Yes, it felt pretty compressing but it really sucks how you literally see it through the dress. Never understood how these waist trainers worked because i always thought they’d somehow be seen due to the hooks/different leveling of the material. I hoped for the best and my worst concern was proven to be an issue- aka yes, you do see the trainer under your clothes. Bummer.

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED!!!
How do I even start, I was super excited Nordstroms started carrying SKIMS because the website is always sold out of everything.... with that being said i purchased the wait trainer and the high waist bonded thong in a size Large OMG the sizes run extremely SMALL when i opened the box and fancy bag it comes in i looked at the thong and thought i was accidentally shipped the wrong size the Thong looked like it was a size XS but i thought it might look like that but MAYBE its stretchy and no way, I can say I'm very disappointed in the shapewear brand, the prices are reasonable but i would not buy this brand again specially after making me feel really self conscious of my weight way to go KIM KARDASHIAN... Hope this helps anyone in the future if you are a LARGE like me a size 2X will hopefully fit!!!

don’t buy
I agree sizing is off. I ordered a couple sizes and not even close. Also material is so thin, it does not look like it will hold up at all. The case that comes with it looks like better material and quality than the actual product. I highly doubt Kim wears this junk herself.. what a sham.

LOVE!
My favorite waist trainer. So comfy, I could wear all day under my clothes. It’s been a great addition to my diet and fitness plan. Definitely feeling more confident after wearing. I’m 5’4 and weigh 140 and I wear an XS. I’m surprised that I fit an XS, so I’d recommend sizing down.

What was she thinking?
If I could give zero stars I would. This product is not meant for a plus size woman. I could not get it on or fastened. Supposedly I am a 2x in this line, but frankly, who wants their internal organs to be smushed together all day? A total waste of money, I returned it. The shorts I also bought were equally as ridiculous. I had to struggle for 5 minutes, they still were not all the way on, and they were still uncomfortable; who has time for this??

Torture
I have to admit I was intrigued with the waist trainer. I got it home and there was no way this thing was going to make it around me. And if it did fit I think it would squeeze my organs and I would never be able to sit down. I quickly returned this. I’m not really sure who could wear this? If zero stars was an option I would have picked it.
