I tried them and they don't work for me, I have that middle age middle and a large bust and it just looked ridiculous on me.

Do not plan on wearing them alone, but they are terrific as a layering piece. I have that middle age middle too and cannot stand anything even remotely clingy on me, but that is not the case with these, they are wonderful! You could fit two of me in these, but again I would never wear these alone.

but don't you only wear them UNDER something? they are for layering. i have a drawer full and wear them under almost anything because they give me just a bit of compression. i don't buy the skinny tee brand, tho ... but a really nice duplicate of the skinny tee that you can get at jcpenney for 8.99 when they are on sale!

I found that they pilled very badly. I had a nude color that I actually just threw one away because it pilled so badly. I dont think these are all that great over a less expensive brand

Love them. Have four and will buy some summer colors this Spring.

JUST REMEMBER- all SkinnyTees are MEANT for LAYERING ONLY, so it doesn't matter what you wear under them (within reason of course Smiley Happy ). I buy the women's X size range and mine fit great! I wear size M or L street clothes and I'm 5'4" and weigh about 170. Mine do stay in place.

I agree you use them for layering. Wear something over them if you have any midriff at all. They are very clingy & show every bump & roll. Too me they aren't worth the money. I layer a lot & use a thin tee that does not cling.

I am a 1x and I wear the regular skinny tees. I would never wear them alone, not even double layered, but they are great under slightly sheer tops, itchy sweaters or as an added layer for warmth. I don't think the neckline is finished enough to wear as a camisole, just my choice.

I did notice that the skinny tees TSV has the women's size.

Blah. Not liking the sound of this. Crystal embellishments on your butt?
