I bought size M . I am 156cm and weigh 70kg. The Lift Body medium shorts are easy to get into and offer just the right amount of support. It gave me great shape and I would definitely recommend. The pee hole takes a bit of practice but after a few wears I have it worked out. I would definitely down size for greater support. Gives great lift and support.
Popped it in a lingerie bag and washed in normal wash cycle.
I’m a 14/16 and bought the Lift Slimming Bodysuit in XL. Love this new body suit fits better around my bottom area and very comfortable.
Absolutely fabulous. So comfortable to wear. My wardrobe has expanded as I can wear lots of my form fitting dresses again with confidence.
I could believe how comfortable this was. I have worn so my different types of shape ware but this by far is the best I have tried.
I had been eyeing off this shapewear for awhile but I’ve burned by other brands so was worried. I’m so glad I took the gamble, it does exactly what I was hoping for! Holds my post partum x 2 belly in and smooths everything out. Highly recommend!
Unsure if this will fit as I have long torso at the beginning and emana short rolling down for me but this one fit perfectly!
This is incredible. Im
Actually using this garment as a compression garment after liposuction & this is way firmer than the one I was given from the hospital.
Tried on only, the second time feels so much better. I feel comfortable in it, although it does flatten the boobs a bit.
Would purchase again, great fit and don't ride up your backside
Have purchased a number of items, they all fit perfectly (bought my regular size). They’re comfortable, well made, good quality and they hold everything in without feeling tight and restricted. My clothes look and feel so much better when I’m wearing these under garments

I have worn a few different variations of high waisted undergarments over the years. These however are the best quality and most comfortable I have ever worn. I highly recommend. I have a hernia and am waiting for surgery in the new year. These shorts have given me confidence in wearing clothing that I have been avoiding recently.
Dear Sarah,
Thank you so much for sharing this. It means a lot to hear that the Emana High Waist and Recovery Shorts have helped you feel comfortable and confident again, especially while you’re managing a hernia and waiting for surgery. We’re really glad the fit and quality are giving you the support you need day to day.
We appreciate the recommendation more than you know, and we’re cheering you on as you head into the new year and wishing you smooth surgery and comfortable recovery. If you ever need a different type of post surgery support, feel free to reach out to us again and we would be more than happy to assist.
I bought this Emana garment after seeing it on Fiona Faulkner. I’ve always hated shapewear as it digs in, rolls up, is hot, uncomfortable etc… I have tried every brand from the most expensive to cheapest, and every different cut/style there is… Hated all of them! I saw the Emana and liked the idea of it being a one-piece body suit, which I hadn’t tried before.
I’m 170cm tall, hourglass shape, 90kg, about 110cm around the bust (or cup size D to E, depending on the brand).
I followed the size guide and chose the XL in the Emana and it is the perfect size! Definitely do not size down thinking it will “hold you in” better, as it already does that very well at your correct size!
You have to sit down to slowly pull yourself into it and it feels quite firm at first, but give it 2 minutes and adjust all your bits and pieces into place, then you’ll find it just moulds to your body so beautifully. It even has enough support that you could go without a bra if you wanted to, and I’m a cup size D to E (depending on the brand) so that says a lot about how supportive it is!
I could comfortably sit, walk, talk, eat, breathe… And yes it has a generous opening at the crouch for bathroom breaks so you don’t have to take the whole bodysuit off!
Once you adjust your breasts into place and pull the leg holes down to where you’d like them to sit etc, there’s no rolling or digging or stretching… The garment just stays in place. If it doesn’t, I think you’ve selected the wrong size. Definitely follow the size guide, don’t go down or up a size, and email the brand if you need more guidance with help on your size. Luckily, the XL was the perfect choice for me.
I couldn’t believe how it smoothed out the areas I was self-conscious about (tummy, hips, thighs, butt)… I was suddenly so smooth and contoured all over! I tried on a few outfits and they all looked so much better!
Fabric is very high quality, it’s thick but not too thick that it’s hot and unbearable, and the nude colour is perfect for any garment to go over… I would say it is medium to high compression (in terms of shaping and contouring your body).
I really can’t fault it… Highly recommend! Very glad I purchased the Emana!
Wow… be right back, crying
This is one of the most heartfelt and beautifully detailed reviews we’ve ever received. Thank you so much for sharing your experience in such an honest and thoughtful way, FlossyFace. It means the world to us to know that you finally found shapewear that feels as good as it looks.
We love that you took the time to explain the fit and comfort so clearly, especially for others who might be hesitant to try. You described exactly what makes the Emana® Body so special; the way it moulds to your body, supports without discomfort, and gives that smooth, confident feeling.
We’re so happy you love it and even happier that it made you feel amazing in your own skin. Sooo happy for you and thank you once again for making us here at Pliē crying the happy tears
I'm size 14 and ordered the xl. Seems to be right. I'm yet to wear it but I think a slip is a good idea for the off the shoulder dress Ill be wearing at an upcoming wedding.
Thank you for sharing this with us, Carolyn. The Emana Slip is a great choice for an off-the-shoulder dress, especially when you want everything to stay smooth and invisible underneath.
We hope it helps you feel comfortable and confident at the upcoming wedding and if you need any tips, we’re here for you.
This shapewear is super comfortable, great design. Lovely material. Made me feel so supported.
Aaawww.....

Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Mel. We are glad to hear the Emana Highwaist and Recovery Shorts felt easy, comfy and smoothing on you. That is exactly what we hope for our Customers. Enjoy feeling supported in every outfit
Very comfortable supportive slimming & easy to get on with great instructions. Best shape wear I have ever purchased.
Hey Jessie,
Thank you so much for this beautiful review. We are thrilled that the Emana Body feels comfortable, supportive, and easy for you to slip into. Hearing that it is the best shapewear you have ever purchased truly makes our day. Enjoy every wear.
Gorgeous fit Gorgeous silhouette
Thank you so much for your lovely review, Christine. We are thrilled to hear that your Lift Slimming Bodysuit gives you such a gorgeous fit and silhouette. That is exactly how we want you to feel in it. Enjoy every wear
great compression, smoothed all the rolls and stayed put all night. So glad I bought this for the party to wear under my dress
Thank you so much for this lovely review, Helen. We are so happy to hear your Emana Highwaist and Recovery Shorts kept everything smooth and stayed exactly where they should all night long. That kind of no-fuss support is exactly what we want for you.
So glad they helped you feel confident and comfortable at your party. Nothing beats enjoying the night without having to think about your shapewear. Cheers to many more great outfits ahead!
The one I already had was too firm and boned. It also only came to under my bra. This is lighter but still holds everything in and up..all the back and side fat. It gives a great all over smoothness. Best of all..I wore it under white unlined linen pants..you cant see it and it doesnt ride up. I cant pee with it on but thats more to do with me than the garment. I just undressed..easy! I'm going on a cruise soon and intend to wear it day and night.
Thank you so much Samantha for sharing this. It sounds like you finally found a piece that feels good on your body and works with you instead of against you, and that makes us really happy to hear. Wearing it under white linen pants with no show-through is a win on its own. The way you worked around bathroom breaks gave us a little smile too, sometimes it is simply about finding what is easiest for you.
Wishing you the best time on your upcoming cruise. It means a lot to know our piece is going along with you, day and night. Enjoy every minute of it.
I have purchased shapewear in the past from and assortment of companies, but this is the most comfortable item I have ever owned. Do yourself a favor and try Plie it is amazing and smooths out all of the menopause belly.
