Squeem Open-Bust Vest Review: Sixty-Eight Dollars, Hooks, Your Own Bra
We already did a Maidenform torsette (open bust, a tank, $29) and a Diane & Geordi faja (zip, mid-thigh). Squeem sells the vest: black, underbust, wide straps, a hook column down the front, a hip hem, no cups. Sixty-eight dollars. Twenty-five hundred reviews. A 4.0. The bra in the still is yours. This is not a Maidenform nipper (no straps, a belt). It is not latex Ann Chery. It is a vest you sweat in.
If you wanted $16 hooks without straps, the nipper. If you wanted a tank, the torsette. If you wanted a named Colombian-adjacent vest and you will pay department-store money, stay. Size the waist on Squeem’s chart. Start on the loosest hooks.
Your bra is the neckline. The vest is the weather.
Open bust means the still with a strapless bra is the manual. A bra that is too small dumps tissue onto the vest; then people write about bulge. Size the rib. The Size Guide is optional. Their chart is not. Between, up if you cannot breathe on the outer hooks. Wide straps that do not convert. The back still is a scoop and a center seam — it will show in a racer. Wear it under a closed back. Latex-ish compression is hot. That is the $68.
Wash as they say. Heat and a dryer are how a vest becomes a different waist. Do not sleep in it. Do not “train” for hours because a video said so.
A vest. Open bust. Not a tank and not a mid-thigh faja.
Vs the torsette, vs Ann Chery, the 4.0
The torsette is a third the money and a knit. Ann Chery is latex and a belt. Squeem is the vest people name when they want a brand on a hook column. The 4.0 is people who sized the chart, plus people who wanted a $68 miracle and wrote about heat. Believe vest. It will print under a tee. It will not hold a strapless dress by itself.
Who it's for
A bra you already like, a black vest, a chart, a budget that is not $16. Not a tank, not a faja, not a $68 diet. Size the waist, hang it, wear your own cups.
Pros
- A named Squeem open-bust vest — not a mystery Amazon cincher
- Straps plus hooks — a different job from a belt nipper
- Wear-your-own-bra that actually photographs as the still
- 2,500 reviews is a chart matching more often than not
- Distinct from the Maidenform torsette (tank) and from a mid-thigh faja
Cons
- Sixty-eight dollars is two torsettes and a nipper
- Hot. That is the compression
- Prints under a thin tee
- Chart is not a dress size
- Will not hold a strapless dress
A $68 Squeem open-bust vest. Size the waist, hang it, wear your own bra, and do not buy it as a tank or as a diet.
