Our size guides are on every product page under the add to card button. You can also find them below.
Our flattening/tucking underwear's purpose is completely differently to those for cisgender people, for obvious reasons. Therefore, the fit differs completely to those of other high street brands and other low end tucking products. Please make sure you measure carefully, following our size guides closely. These can be found on each product page (under the add to card button) The size guides are all below as well.
We do recommend to also take you measurements for all our other products, this is the most accurate way to find the best fit for you.
We do not cover shipment charges if a return is needed from ordering the incorrect size.
Make sure you follow our size guides carefully. Place the tape measure around the selected area and make sure it is held taut.
Underwear
We recommend sizing up if you fall in-between two sizes. The larger size will most likely be the best fit. Of course, there is a small chance this isn’t the case, where we will be happy to cover the cost of return. If you chose to size down first, we do not offer to cover the cost of return.
Bras & Bralettes
If you fall between sizes we recommend you to choose the best option for you. If your weight fluctuates, your breast/chest are still growing we recommend sizing up. If neither of these apply we recommend sizing down.
If you are unsure with your sizing please send us a message and we would be happy to help.
Kids T-Shirts
Our t-shirts are a relaxed fit. If you fall between sizes we recommend you to choose the best option for you. If you're still growing or your weight fluctuates we recommend sizing up. If neither of these apply we recommend sizing down. The perfect fit of a t-shirt is alway personal to each individual, if you feel you would prefer a size down or up, we are happy to cover the cost of return.
NO! Our flattening/tucking underwear only work if you purchase the exact size stated on our size guides, according to your hip measurement. If you order a size too small, you will struggle to get the garment on and may damage the panty. You will then not be eligible for a return. We cannot stress enough the importance of buying your correct size based on your hip measurement (not waist).
Please do not go off your waist measurement. This will definitely lead you to purchasing the incorrect size. Our panties are designed upon exact hip measurements, therefore you have to measure your hips. Your waist measurement is completely irrelevant.
Not an issue unless they are extra-large. We are working on panties that can work with larger butt implants, without effectively the performance of the panty.
We are continually working towards expanding the sizes we offer, of course this takes time and resources. Since launching, we have expanded so many of products size offering and we will continue to expand throughout each year as we grow. Please send us a message to tell us know the size you would require, this is helpful for us to know.
Please find our Returns and Exchange policy here. If you ordered the incorrect size, we are unable to cover shipment costs. If you order the wrong size, we will do our best to provide the same colour/style in that new size, if it is not available we will provide you with a coupon.
Do not buy a different size, please wait for restock. Sign up to a restock notification on the item and size that is out of stock.

Tucking Underwear
Yes, this is how they are designed. You do not need any other tapes or garments with our panties, although a full tuck is required for optimum smoothness. We are on the way to developing new products where you do not need to tuck, of course these are a secret!
Although, each to their own! Some people wear our panties without tucking, but this is not the intended method. We will not be able to accept a return if you are unhappy with the product without tucking.
Flattening Underwear
You do no have to tuck with our flattening underwear, you simply push everything between your legs and the underwear will hold everything in place.
Kids Briefs
The briefs are designed to flatten the front profile without tucking. We do not feel tucking is necessary and ethical for children's products.
Our underwear goes through a lengthy development and design process to ensure they complete the job set out to do, providing a well-designed product worth its price label. All materials used are personally sourced by Carmen and made for CARMEN LIU and of guaranteed high quality.

This is of course more expensive and time consuming, reflecting in the higher cost of our underwear.
