20 Best High Waist Thong Shapewear (2023 Updated)

Great for giving yourself a complete shape under dress clothes and wayy better and comfortable than wearing a Girdle. I ordered a M. Im a size 12 sometimes 10 and Bra size 36D. However I have a tummy area and im pretty curvy.

My bottom halve is bigger than my top and I usually wear a shaper to help my clothes fall nicely and a more professional appearance. I usually where this with Capri dress pants or normal dress panta and it lays flat under my bra and does not Roll down! Im glad i ordered a M, because it holds me in nicely! Highly recommended and great quality!.

I wear this shaper nearly everyday, unless I am wearing a dress or lazing around the house. Overall this is the best full length bra-line to ankle shaper out there – believe me I have bought them all! Having said that it has some flaws that could easily be fixed making it near perfect.

First off I am 5’5, with an hourglass shape and no belly or tummy control concerns. My measurements are 42-28-39 (30″ bra band, so I am busty) and have hips, I have thicker thighs and calves, and gravity has not been kind to my derriere.

I will list my sizes at the bottom to hopefully help guide you in choosing a size for yourself. I wear this shaper under tight jeans, dress pants, leggings and athletic wear. Everyday as I put them on I think “If only Leonisa made these in an XS, with a lot more compression at the waist, and a bit more compression to the inner thigh, these would be perfect! In the cool months I pair them with light compression tights and love the added thigh slimming effect, but wish I could have the effect with just one garment, not two.

Plus it can take away from the seperation effect of the shapers butt lifting charms. To Leonisa’s credit, not even my new personal trainer knew I was wearing shapewear, until I told her. To prove it, I slipped into the ladies room and and took it off.

She was stunned to see how UN-toned and UN-firm I really was, and how differently my clothes fit. The only other small complaint I have, is they changed the straps (which I always wear) to include shiny metal hooks/fasteners that I ended-up throwing away and reusing my old straps that had the matching hooks/fasteners.

Hopefully the order I place tonight will include the usual style straps. In closing ladies, this is a Great shaper if you carry weight in your midsection more than or proportionate to your thighs (like some of my friends) or you are 20’s -30’s relatively firm and just looking for a smooth line from your bra to your ankles.

But, if your an hourglass shape with thicker thighs, it may not be ideal, but it will be the best choice you have in a shaper without zippers or countless hooks – period! Do yourself a favor and try it yourself, you won’t regret it! And one bonus perk is, not even someone hugging you or touching you (aka boyfriend or hubby) will know you have it on.

and honestly my husband liked the look of this shaper once he did see it. I wish you luck! And please, please Leonisa – make this in a smaller size than a S-M!!!!!! As promised here they are: 42-28-39.

I wear a 30HH to J bra, size S-M top, 4-6 dress, 28 jeans which I have the waist altered, 6-8 dress pants depending on the brand (again waist altered) and S-M leggings or athletic wear. I weigh 160-165 lbs and am told I appear about 25 -30 lbs lighter.

Hopes this help you in your quest for the perfect shaper.

I’m 3 months postpartum and needed something to keep it all together as I progressively lose the weight. I’m about 30″ at the waist 38″ at the hip (156lbs) and I went with size L/Xl. With this size I don’t feel like I’m getting the compression I want/need in the abdomen region but if I were to go any smaller it wouldn’t fit my legs since most of my weight is on the lower half of my body.

I did like that I finally found a shapewear that doesn’t flatten my butt however. Additionally, I am not the type of woman that would pee through a pee hole so I am not able to wear the straps as I can’t put them back on after using the restroom with my shirt on.

So without the straps this does keep rolling down to the bottom of my ribs. All and all I think this shapewear would fit great on someone that carries more weight on their top half of their body and will use the pee hole so the straps can keep it in place.

I got this as a gift. I love how well it fits! I have the small/medium in the nude color. I am 5 ft 6 in. and weigh about 139, and the fit is great! It doesn’t dig into my thighs or under my bust. It keeps my tummy looking flat and slim so I can wear all my tight bodycon dresses without funny lumps.

The nude color makes it good to wear under lighter colored fabrics so it doesn’t look like I”m wearing it.

Light weight with great features. High quality product with great features.

This shaper works great under dresses. I ordered nude which allows it to go under any color clothing. Mske sure to look at the size chart before ordering so you get the correct size. It smoothes really well, no odd lumps anywhere.

I bought this product to wear under my wedding dress for my second dress appointment. My dress is a skin tight minimalist crepe dress, so you can see everything, and white isn’t the most forgiving color.

The Classic Control Thong was perfect for smoothing out my stomach! I am usually a size 2 and 26/27 in jeans, but I do have bigger butt. I ordered both a small and an extra small, and the extra small was the better fit! No weird digging in around the hips/butt, it smoothed my waist, and is very comfortable! I do prefer to wear thongs, so I found it comfortable.

However, I can see how it could be uncomfortabale for someone not used to it. Also, it is more of a smoothing/light hold than a sturdy shape/sculpt. Saying that, I do think that this is the most comfortable for wearing all day on my wedding.

This is a great thong! I have bought several for my clients. I am a portrait photographer and offer boudoir sessions. We have sexy wardrobe available at our studio that our clients can wear. Usually when I ask them to bring a nude thong to wear with our wardrobe outfits they bring all sorts of stuff that either doesn’t stay in place, creates unflattering indentions, or the worst: it does not match their skin tone!!! So, I have bought these thongs in all sizes (from xs to xl) in all the shades available: beige, caramel, and mocha to keep at the studio for whenever a client needs them.

I wish Commando will still have toffee available. My clients get to keep their thong and they rave about them! For my retoucher, they are a god-sent as they are so much easier to retouch out because of how seamless they are!.

The fabric itself feels nice. It is smooth and doesn’t pinch or dig in. However it does not stay in place when putting pants on over. It tends to bunch up and ride up your cheeks, so that you have lines.

Throughout the day even when not being active, the underwear rides up and is uncomfortable on the crotch and butt, gives wedgies. I thought I would like this since I love the classic thong, but I would say stay away from this design.

Initially I was sceptical that I would even be able to fit into this when I first opened the package. It has proven to be able to stretch and fit beyond imagination. The waist-cinching corset part is a bit stretchy, but mainly sturdy.

The bottom part can be used in place of underwear, is thinner and does not feel uncomfortable at all. It is perfect to wear under dresses and helps to achieve a flat stomach, however it may feel a bit stuffy to wear during hotter days due to the thicker fabric.

Something to consider is that the corset wires may protrude when wearing thinner or tight dresses. I still use this whenever feeling bloated and it works wonders.

The shapewear is ok. I feel like it could have been more supported and tight in the waist area! But pretty good so far. I can wear pants and jeans on top without struggling or feeling too tight!

It kinda works. My problem is always the lower belly. So it does smoothen the lower belly. Size XL/2XL fits me, which is size AU10/12.

The only thing I liked about them was the color. These panties are too small. I’m usually a 6/8 and sized up to 8/10 for comfort. These panties did not stay in place and rolled down every time I moved.

Sitting, standing, bending. Highly disappointed in $35 panty. If I breathed the rolled down, no contour control. Don’t waste your money. Obviously I can’t return. They look good if you are standing and not breathing looking in the mirror frozen.

These do help smooth out your shape, and hold in your tummy. However, where the material changes from solid to stripe, you still have a panty line in the middle of the panty in the front and in the back.

Doesn’t hit at the waist, but just below, so expect a line there also if you are wearing a clingy material. By the end of the day, these are digging into you at the leg openings. I wish I would have just bought the “bike shorts” style as a friend recommended.

I have a few different shapers and these are fabulous. Fairly comfortable and love that it doesn’t flatten my butt or create weird panty lines. Would definitely follow the sizing guide, I almost sized down to a medium and I’m so glad I didn’t.

I’m 5’8, 165 lbs, with a mom pooch from having twins and unsuccessfully fighting gravity.

Hmm. I don’t get why this has so many good reviews, I personally really disliked them. The quality is nice, fabric is great and seems long lasting but the sizing and construction is off- I’m a 5/6 in almost every panty so I ordered the medium and it was too small, I had major panty lines dipping in and a large probably would’ve resolved that, but then I’d loose the support part.

I know these are suppose to be a tight fit to suck things in but if the seams are showing and causing dips then it defeats the whole purpose. There must be a specific body type these work for, but if your flabby skinny like me and the panty lines give that away you won’t like these.

I really like these! Most support-control panties are tight and binding. These are not at all. After a few minutes you don’t even know you have them on. I went back and bought several. The rear seam is great too.

It stays in place and doesn’t move. Outlines the derriere very nicely.

i got these bc at my 34th year of life, i finally realize i must use better coverage pantys. i have use leonisa since i am 15 and i can truly say i am thankfull to God they deliver to usa and its the fastest i have seen i love it ty leonisa i bought this panty 5 times by the way.

I love these vanishing edge high waist briefs. I didn’t know the exact name for them, and I when I stopped in to buy a few more pair, I explained that they are “Spanx-like. ” Neither one of the salespeople had a clue what that term meant.

I kept explaining “stretchy,” “holds everything in,” etc. I finally had to have my husband take a picture of some I had in a drawer at home before I could get them to understand what I needed. They only had a couple of pair tucked in a disorganized drawer–none on display–so I wonder if they might be discontinuing them?.

I just received this in the mail yesterday and I immediately washed and dried them. I just tried the black one on and I highly recommend sizing up. So glad I did! It held me in without feeling uncomfortable or like I couldn’t breath.

The reason I gave it 2 stars is because it does not stay up, it rolls down immediately. I’ve worn shape wear for years and the only kind that stays up are the ones held up with bra straps, that are bra friendly.

How can you wear these when they don’t even stay up. Very disappointed!! It does have the silicone at the top and at the leg and bum part that stays perfectly. However this does not stay up immediately rolls down I can’t even get it to sit perfectly it just rolls down in the back and in the front.

Very frustrating! Just another to add to the drawer.

I ran into my local Soma the day before my wedding as I tried on my dress with an undergarment I purchased. Little did I know that white shoes through! I told the sales person my issue and she recommended the nude color high waist slimmer as well as the strapless bra.

She let me bring my dress in the store and try it on to be sure it was what I wanted. Yes, it was perfect! I felt so comfortable the whole night! Thank you!!.

I had my last 2 cinchers for about 3 years. I took good care of them and they lasted! I use one to really work up a sweat in and one for around the house/errands. I just recently ordered 2 new ones. One with the straps and one without.

I have to say maybe because mine were so broken in or they have improved, but they def are stronger and support your posture. Great quality and super excited to have some new ones. I would like throw in that I ordered sizes too small and sent them back.

I got in touch with customer service and asked about paying extra to get my exchanges here faster. Being it “took 3 days to process” I assumed I had a week to wait. They arrived 2 days later after speaking with them.

They’re shipping is really fast and customer service is great. I’ve used this company for years and always will.

The front is a good length but the back is unfortunately short and so it curls down under the pressure of your body. Why they would make a longline corset with a regular sized back panel is poor designing.

If you’re top heavy, you may not be happy with this. Also the size chart is about 1 1/2 sizes smaller than posted.

This waist clincher is just ok. It doesn’t pull you in well in my opinion. It’s not firm enough. Even though it is for the waist it is to long in the back to accommodate my hips so it bunches up on top of my hip at my waist.

Very uncomfortable. This waist clincher is not good for a person with large hips unless you have a long back.

These are my go-to briefs, the ones I wear most days of the week. They offer full coverage, are very comfortable, yet make me look and feel feminine. They are also quite durable and last a long time, wash after wash.

The Rago lace trim briefs are definitely my favorite item in my underwear drawer, and I usually have at least 7-10 pairs on hand.

As a guy who loves wearing long leg panty girdles, I just received four different Rago girdles from Classic Shapewear. I’ll review each one separately, but I like this one the best. I’m 6″2″ tall, 36 ” waist,, and weigh 205.

I ordered all four in 2X (34″ waist). I also own several other Rago and Cupid extra firm shapers with a high waist, but wifey always can tell when I’m wearing them because there’s always a roll of fat spilling out of the top.

The 6228 does not cause this problem. This is the first girdle I’ve tried with hook and eye/zipper. I’m sure with some practice I’ll get better with this, but rather difficult to hook up at first. Not sure how older women manage this.

For me the legs are real loose, but that’s not a problem area I need control. I also love the split crotch. I’m able to wear my male anatomy outside which enhances “the look” of a nice package and makes peeing real easy.

I also enjoy the lace cuffs. When wearing shorts in public I like to give girdle peeks of the lace and garters when sitting down. Drives the wife crazy, but gets me all excited! Will review my other new Rago girdles soon.

I love these. Just received my 3rd pair. They’re so comfortable, the waist band doesn’t roll and my clothes slide right over them. Not firm control, but definitely smooths things out so my slim jeans look great.

I finally figured out that I get the best fit if I order the size that my waist measures. I wear a 16 to 18 pant size normally, but ordered a 38 in these and they fit perfect.

My waist is between a 34-35 and I purchased the large. I could have went with a medium because once you get it on it loosens up and I wanted more compression but it is still great!

I buyed this to wear under a very thin fabric dress. The mid support helped to sculptm my waist, back and hip sections. I like that I can wear my own bra underneath. Very comfy to wear all day.

I have been buying Leonisa shapers since 2015. While I love the shapers, I would love if they came with extra replacement straps because the straps tends to wear out and the elastic comes out. I switched my black stripes and put them on my tan shaper.

My other concern is, why aren’t you making shaper 018674N in “BLACK” anymore?? I know you have another shaper similar to this one in black, but it doesn’t have the adjustable straps which I like better.

Can Leonisa please start producing this item again in black. I purchased the other one in black and it’s just different. Lastly, it would be great if Leonisa made this shaper ankle length, or close to it, under the knee, close to the calf.

I love wearing this shaper with my jeans and being that it stops right at the knee, is sometime visible depending on the jean I wear. I wouldn’t definitely stock up on a shaper like that bc I am a jean wearing queen.

Sorry last thing, not sure if it can be made a little tighter around the lower belly which is my problem area. Thank you.

So this is my second faja of this brand and style. My first one was an XL but i needed a smaller one so i ordered it directly from the website. I will say, I’m extremely DISAPPOINTED in the way the gusset is on this one.

The gusset is supposed to be open like my other one. But this one is not and very uncomfortable on my cooter. i have to spread it open because it has flaps like some cooter lips. The update of this style needs to be tossed and go back to the way it was with a completely OPEN gusset.

Another thing the gusset start over my cooter hole, so it pointless to use during period time. They need to also remove about 4 inches of fabric from below the 3 hook closure for the gusset to be properly fitting! In conclusion, the gusset is just a slip not a full opening! Very bad update with the garment! I wish i could wear make my xl style smaller.

I had another product from Leonisa that I LOVED (forgot which one but it’s similar to this one) and I got this one thinking it wouldn’t be any different but let me tell you, ITS AWFUL. not only does it NOT control the tummy at all, the sizing is completely off and the top underneath my bust isnt even snug.

I tried two different sizes and neither way solved the problem. WORST OF ALL. This thing gives me an HORRENDOUS painful, itchy, blister filled rash ALL over my belly. I know for a fact that it is specifically this product because for the past two weeks I’ll wear it for one day and then that night the moment I take it off my belly is itchy and painful and tonight it’s the ABSOLUTE WORST it’s been and I didn’t wear it any longer than usual, actually less amount of time today.

I won’t be able to wear shape wear for at least 3 days now to let this go away. It’s never been this severe but it has gotten bad enough that I couldn’t wear it for two days because of the severity of my rash.

As much as I loved the other product, this completely ruined my desire to ever purchase another product from them. I’m going to share my story where I can because I don’t want anybody else to ever have to deal with this particularly with this product !.

I bought these shorts as I needed something for my very low-backed wedding dress. I tried everywhere possible; Spanx, M & S, Primark, you name it, I tried it. I was getting upset as I have a bit of a tummy and the other shorts were either too low (they cut in my stomach and the fat hung over the top) or they just didn’t provide enough control to hold my stomach in.

I was getting upset as the day was drawing closer and I didn’t feel confident in my own wedding dress. These helped to create a flat stomach look whilst I was in my wedding dress and I can’t express what a relief it was! They were delivered quickly too which was a massive bonus, considering how late I found them on line.

They were also mid range between the prices of the other shorts I had tried, so an extra positive for me. The top of the shorts stayed up all day and night and I didn’t feel particularly uncomfortable either.

They smoothed my love handles and the leg part stayed put comfortably. I cannot rate these shorts enough for their control and comfort.

I bought this last minute hoping for a comfortable fit and a smooth silhouette. Having purchased various shapewear items in the past I had low expectations despite the high cost. I was therefore really pleasantly surprised to find I could get this on very easily and it felt comfortable and more importantly no bulges.

I still had reservations but wore this for 10 hours and it stayed perfectly in place no rolls and remained comfortable the whole time. Well worth the money and I couldn’t happier with my purchase.

I was on the fence about buying this – I’ve tried lots of different shapewear in the past and always find they move/ rise up/ roll down but this really did stay in place all day! I wore it to a wedding so there was sitting, standing, eating and dancing but I forgot I had it on and it gave a really smooth silhouette under my dress.

Only down side is the price! I’m a size 12 pear shape and the medium was a good fit.

Ordering things like this online is always difficult. After reading the reviews I decided to go for it. I wasn’t really sure what size to order but I decided to go with small (I’m size 12 btw). At first, I held it up and was wondering how on earth it was going to go on.

I put in one leg and was thinking there’s no way. However, it went on beautifully!! Pulling it up was easy, much like a swimming costume and stood up to my pulling and tugging. It sucked in my tummy and waist, but I could still breath and sit comfortable (no belly bulge).

I was able to wear a long fitted top over leggings and no longer looked like the letter ‘B’. I was comfortable the whole day, I didn’t feel like I was being suffocated like I do in a corset. It is light and very comfortable to wear.

The material feels quality and doesn’t look like it would wear and tear easily. I’m really happy with my purchase and I highly recommend this product.

I love this bodysuit! It tucks where I need it to and excentuates my curves! Only bad things? The straps are a little wide for some dresses which is frustrating. Also it can cut into the behind sometimes, but I could blame that on my quite large behind instead of the body suit haha!.

I purchased this Lytess Body shaper a while ago and i absolutely love it hides what needs to be hidden! Not too tight to make me uncomfortable but adjusted to feel a bit “more together” .

The material is thin and slick enough not to make your slacks “grab” it, but it is firm enough to keep things smooth. I do wish they had a little more compression but that is just me, I like shape-wear to feel like shape-wear.

These do a really good job and are actually comfortable.

I liked what I ordered, just ordered wrong size, but I exchanged it

I usually don’t take the time to write reviews but once I tried these undies I had to. If you just gave birth you need these. I had a c -section a month ago and these are so comfortable the right amount of compression and it fully covers my butt.

I hate when these compression undies go into my butt but these don’t ! I have full coverage in the front and back. Worth the money!!.

I am back to buy more. Although the support is firmer than other pants I have purchased here, this pant is still very comfortable. I am torn, however, as to what I like most. My stomach has always been like a beach ball.

This pant is high enough that it smooths out my entire stomach area, not just the mid and lower. The added benefit is that it provides me with better lumbar support than the products I have purchased just for that purpose.

Now I can look AND feel better at the same time. For me this is a win-win.

So, I have mixed feelings about this compression panty. The material itself is comfortable, but maybe that’s because it doesn’t have much compression material in the tummy area. This panty made my waist snatched like no other, with NO muffin top, so I love that aspect.

But it didn’t do anything for my lower belly pooch; in fact, it almost made it stick out more because my waist was so snatched. Great for waist control, but not for lower tummy control!.

I love how thin this shaper short is! It’s comfortable and not scratchy at all. However, due to reviews about it ripping at the seams, I decided to purchase both a 2x and a 3x. I am normally a true 2x (18/20).

I tried on the 3x first and it fit perfectly! There isn’t a lot of compression but it definitely smooths me out. I tried on the 2x and there was more compression but I did not feel comfortable sitting in it as I didn’t want to rip the seams (I have larger hips and buttox).

At the end of the day, my preference is smoothing rather than compression, especially for shape wear made with this type of fabric. I suggest ordering your normal size and a size up to decide what your preference is.

For me, sizing up was the best choice.

Love this shapewear so much. I was looking for something to wear under my fitted satin crepe wedding dress that wouldn’t show and would make me look snatched. I scoured the internet relentlessly and tried a few other brands and couldn’t find what I wanted.

Then these came out and I ordered them immediately. They’re perfect. They really pull in my waist and do not show ANY lines under my dress. They’re also really high waisted, so they won’t roll down (hopefully).

I haven’t worn them for anything other than my dress fitting so far, but I am confident they will be perfect on the day. I am typically a size 4, but have a toddler/a little bit of a mom pooch still and a small fit perfectly.

The fabric on these is unlike anything that I have ever worn. It is so silky and breathable. And completely gives you a snatch that is comfortable and natural looking. I have a few other pieces and I am struggling to find continuity with the sizing.

That is the only reason this is a 4 and not a 5. I bought 2x and it is more snug than shapewear. Still comfortable but compared to other products from the brand it is a different fit. I would love to be able to just kno that a 2x will fit from collection to collection instead of having to guess and in this case be very wrong.

Luckily it is ok but it would be unstoppable if i was in the best size for me.

I needed a short style that 1. Was breathable and didn’t feel uncomfortable 2. That was short and sheer enough to not be seen through a dress with a side split and 3. Could avoid the VPL and didn’t ride up.

This style was one of the very few that could do all this for me. I wore it for about 9 hours and it proved to be worth every $. There was a little bit of gathering throughout the day around the leg area but this didn’t show through the dress.

I would definitely buy again if I needed to replace it.

This pan is the latest edition to our Essteele Per Salute collection. After purchasing and testing out the triple pan set, we were won over with how great these pans are. Even heat distribution and non-stick surface makes them a breeze to clean.

Also highly recommend the crepe pan but to be honest, they’re all excellent cookware choices.

This body shaper product is light in weight & dries quickly. The sturdy panels offer comfortable stomach & groin support. The perfect leg length does not roll up or cut into the flesh. Ideal for a mature figure.

Worth every penny. I am teaching a summer-school course, and this works well as a light-weight smoothing undergarment for skirts/pants without the restrictiveness of a heavier fabric. I bought three of the mid-thigh shorts; the other two colors are Cocoa and Bronze.

Bronze is beautiful. Fit is true to size and this fabric is breathable. I like the material better than other shape-wear that seems to tear. This fabric is so soft, and would also be good in a longer legging and/or a dress for summer.

🤎.

This product is absolutely worth the money. I wore this for a wedding and was so comfortable. The hold it gives is amazing. It feels supportive and I could barely tell I was wearing shapewear. It isn’t suffocating like other brands can be.

It flattened and shaped in all the right places. I felt so much better about my biggest insecurity – my tummy. Honestly, I am so grateful for Skims. My overall size experience with the brand is that it runs small.

So, I range from a L & XL and needed to size up to feel more comfortable.

You can’t beat Yummie. Even my husband notices the wonderful effects when I wear them. The high waist compression panty is awesome. I have a back that insists on aching and when I were these panties, not only does my back feel better, but I look better.

At 79, looking good is very important and Yummie makes it happen. Their slacks and leggings are also wonderful. Perfect for anytime, anywhere, and terrific for travel. If you haven’t tried Yummie products, hesitate no longer.

Outstanding products.

I’d been eyeing these and this type of shaper for a while, so I finally made the purchase. My assessment; if you are in a hurry in the restroom, good luck. If you are even a little rolly polly this waist will roll down, I think it’s inevitable with any high waist shaping item unless you buy a body suit.

Because the waist portion is thicker than the bottom I felt fatter, although I did feel comfortable all day, besides the fact I had to roll up the back many times. Since it’s winter now I am wearing this shaper with leggings and sweaters, I can imagine wearing it will be very hot in the summer time, that is why I plan on repurposing the shaper as a Tankini bottom.

The shaping brief was perfect length for my petite size. At 5ft tall, it came up to the underside of my bra. The silicone strip around the top helps it from rolling down but I thought they could have also included these silicone strips around the leg openings in the rear to prevent it from riding up your butt.

The brief smooths out unsightly bulges and seems comfortable enough (only tried it on – didn’t wear it for an extended period of time yet). However, it doesn’t really cinch your waistline, so if you’re looking for that, then look elsewhere.

Bought the xs/s to fit my 32B-27-35 frame.
