There are some decent ones that won’t break the bank. I use this one for daily wear, as it’s got all the steel bones you need and it’s much more breathable being mesh. Don’t let the mesh part fool you, it’s very sturdy material.
So, it depends on how much time you can wear them. I feel that the workout ones end up leading you to permanently tense your abs, so not sold on that. The shapers rarely have the support to accomplish anything (but might be able to be hidden under clothes while presenting male).
My favorite is a corset style. Unfortunately much harder to hide under masc clothing. Here is what I am using:

Sure thing! So let's break it down into the three parts, Waist, Chest and Hips.
Waist: I'm wearing one of these corsets with this trainer over it to smooth things out.
Hips: I'm wearing some light padding (don't let the pic on Amazon scare you. They aren't that extreme. I have the waistband of the hip pads pulled over the corset and trainer to smooth things further.
Lastly, for boobs I've used this method with waaaaaaay more subtle contouring.
Put them all together and you can wear just about anything that covers your midsection.
