SHAPERX Seamless Open Bust Mid-Thigh Shorts Bodysuit

A comfortable budget bodysuit for light smoothing, with tricky sizing and only moderate compression.

The short version

Buy it if
  • People new to shapewear who want light, everyday smoothing
  • Anyone who prefers to wear their own bra under a bodysuit
  • Budget shoppers who want a mid-thigh shorts style to wear under dresses
Skip it if
  • You want firm, high compression shaping
  • You are tall and often find bodysuits short in the torso
  • You want shapewear you can machine wash

What owners like

  • Comfortable and breathable enough for a full day
  • Smooths the midsection under dresses and fitted outfits
  • Low price compared with big name shapewear

Common complaints

  • Compression is light to medium, not firm control
  • Conflicting sizing advice, with some saying size down and others saying stay true to size
  • Torso can run short for taller wearers
  • Edges can show under very tight clothing
  • Hard to pull on, and some reports across SHAPERX bodysuits of strap seams separating over time

Based on The SHAPERX product page and its review summary, the Amazon listing, a Shapewear Review roundup of buyer feedback on this bodysuit, and a TrendSpot overview of SHAPERX bodysuits in general.

What it does

A seamless nylon and spandex shapewear bodysuit with an open bust for your own bra, adjustable straps and mid-thigh shorts legs.

  • Open bust so it can be worn with your own bra
  • Double layer waistband that SHAPERX says targets the tummy area
  • Shaping panels through the torso and down to mid-thigh, described by the maker as 360 degree
  • Seamless knit with no zipper, aimed at avoiding visible lines under clothes
  • Adjustable straps to tune the fit through the torso

A reasonable budget choice for anyone who wants everyday smoothing under dresses and fitted clothes while keeping their own bra. Reviews describe light to medium compression rather than firm control, and sizing advice conflicts, so check the maker's size chart closely before ordering.

Questions

Should I size down in SHAPERX shapewear?

Advice is split. Some buyers say size down for more compression, others say stay true to size to avoid rolling, so measure against the maker's chart.

Can I wear my own bra with it?

Yes. The open bust is designed to be worn with your own bra.

Does the SHAPERX open bust bodysuit have a bathroom opening?

SHAPERX describes a double cotton gusset made for bathroom convenience, but one review roundup says there is no crotch opening, so check the listing photos.

How do you wash it?

SHAPERX lists it as hand wash only.
