For a first chest binder, Medium in white from Gender Fluid is an easy starting point: moderate compression rather than a heavy squeeze, hooks that let you change the fit, and a colour that disappears under school shirts, pastel tops and summer tees. It suits an unbound chest of 30 to 33 inches, the smallest range in this listing.
The flattening comes from a firm mesh panel across the front. There is no underwire and no padding, and the nylon-spandex body gives slightly each time you breathe or bend. That makes it a gentler introduction than very rigid binders, though it also means the result is a smoother line rather than a completely flat one.
Open the side hooks, wrap the binder around you like a vest, then fasten from the bottom hook upwards so the front panel lies flat. Settle your chest under the mesh before doing up the last hooks. Most people find this easier than wriggling into a pull-over binder, especially in the first week.
The tank is cut to half length, so it ends above the waistband and needs no tucking. Front and back, the neckline is scooped low. Gender Fluid suggests no more than eight hours of wear a day, not sleeping in it, and skipping it for sport unless you go up a size.

Helpful answers about Gender Fluid Chest Binder White - Medium.
It's a reasonable first binder because the compression is moderate and the hooks let you loosen it. Start with shorter wears while you get used to it, and stop if anything hurts.
Both list 33 inches. Medium gives a closer fit; Large gives more room around the ribs. If you have a broad back or will wear it for long days, the white Large is the more forgiving choice.
No. The maker is clear that a smaller size only adds discomfort and doesn't help the result. Order by your real unbound measurement.
Gender Fluid advises against layering two binders. If one doesn't give the look you want, choose loose or patterned tops over it rather than adding a second layer.
White is the least visible under white and pale clothing. Black works better under dark or heavier layers; the same Medium also comes in black if most of your wardrobe is dark.
