About Me Comfort Driven
Comments about Avenue WYOB Firm Singlet (Sizes XL/2X):
This is great for smoothing away rolls and the torso in general. It doesn't get uncomfortable. You are not hot during day wearing it. My only promblem is that I have to pull the entire thing down to use the restroom because the croch openig is small. It is still worth it. With regard to difficult getting into it, I got one size up, and I didn't have much trouble pulling it up past my hips.
Singlet needs one more
By soshiny

The one thing I didn't consider when I got this was how one goes to the bathroom while wearing this. I would need to completely remove the dress and then the entire singlet. It's difficult to take off and put back on because of it's support factor. I used to think that shapewear was such an updated idea, but it's still just a girdle.

Good fit for a tall size 18
By Annie Oakely
from SoCal
Purchased the 2x (I'm a tall hourglass 18 with the sands of time accumulating at the midsection!). A little bit difficult pulling the waistline over my hips (full hips). Good fit otherwise. Does not show a crease line where the bottom of the leg ends. Which I really expected it would. Surprised me. I LOVE I can wear my own bra with this.

BEST EVER
By Ryan
from Champaign, IL
WOW... Turned my very apple shape (huge tummy) into a fantastic hourglass. I was astounded at how good it looked. Made me look much slimmer, no bulges, I want to wear it constantly. The legs don't slim... but I purchased the one with legs so I wouldn't have that weird hip bulge you see under dresses when you get the one that looks like a one piece swim suit. Does that only happen to me? Anyway. Buy it. It's worth every penny. A little rough to put on but I've owned far worse. And I just kept trying on everything in my closet after I put it on because everything looked so good!

Meh.
By linderzoid
from the cupboard under the stairs
I was excited to get this because I've never owned a singlet and had to tuck a control top into control shorts before if i wanted all-over smoothing. But this thing is far from perfect - my biggest complaint is the bottom half. It provides little to no support or smoothing in the butt, hips, and thighs. The unfinished hemline on the thighs rolls up constantly, which defeats the purpose of having the unfinished hemline in the first place (the rolling will cause a line to show through your dress/pants and you still get the "bulge"). The part that goes by your bra in front is the same, and the fabric slips and rolls down uncomfortably, often right under my bra wire. There are weird seams on the sides and around the middle (you can't see these in the picture) which are of course due to the fact that it's only the midsection of this thing that's double-lined or supportive at all. In certain clothes, you would for sure be able to see these (maybe no one realizes this?). I would return this if I hadn't gotten it so cheap on Cyber Monday. I'll just have to make sure I don't wear it with anything that clingy.

hard to put on, but worth it!
By K
from IL
I ordered the correct size as stated on the size charts. It was difficult to get on, but worth the effort. It provided a lot of figure flattering smoothness and support in the abdominal/back/underbust area. There was less support in the thigh area, but this is necessary to stop the unflattering bulge at the end of the firm shapewear. The straps were not uncomfortabe over my bra. The fabric properties allowed for me to be cool and comfortable in my formal dress. I have only 2 complaints; 1)using the restroom was VERY difficult. The crotch opening could stand to either be larger or have snaps. 2)The fabric on the bottom of the thighs rolled when I would sit down. I was in the Ladies room several times adjusting. I would have preferred the thigh area to be a tad longer, to the knees maybe, to prevent the rolling issue.If you could get the thigh area not to roll, thigh highs would tuck very nicely under the ends to allow for hosiery. All in all, I am glad I bought it and will use it again.

Confidence builder!
By Amy
from NY
The first time I tried to put this on I did not think I would ever get it over my hips let alone up to my shoulders. This was not easy to get into but I do not think any singlet would be. Once on it is really quite comfortable. It is does it's job very well and made me look almost 2sizes smaller! I was worried about the reviews that said the thighs rolled up because I hate that more than anything. But the thighs NEVER rolled up! The thighs almost look unfinished with no hem but once on they are made that way for comfort, do not make a leg bulge and again did not roll. I bought my real size and that was smart because although it was difficult getting on it made my dress look fabulous! The shoulder straps stayed in place and were comfortable. I am very pleased with this singlet.
Great Shapewear
By Oilfield Eng Chick

This singlet is super tight when you first put it on, but wow does it do a great job at slimming. It stays in place very well, and I don't mind wearing it for a 10 hr day of work meetings.
