After losing a few stone I'm now back into standard sizes. 24-18/20 so far and still going. I've not bothered with Primark much except for the dc.

Pant, ladies there pants are brilliant. They are honestly great! So comfy, hold you in and obviously cheap. What else am I missing out on?

I like their control pants - totally different to the everyday cotton underwear. Much, much better.

NarcolepticOuchMouse · 23/09/2018 21:11

Aren't they all plastic? I couldn't find any cotton ones in there last time.

I bought some navy ones before holiday and the dye rubbed off onto my skin!!

Fabricwitch · 23/09/2018 21:29

The ones I bought were cotton, in a multi-pack.

I get the stretchy ones. Pack of 3 on a hanger. Fab knickers. Really comfy.

I found the size and cut weird (multipack bikinis iirc). Used them for dusting.
Post weight loss clothes shopping is great. Congratulations!

Velevet lined leggings (instead of opaque tights in winter) -so warm! Bras and pants sets (I have sets that have lasted years). Cotton cardigans. The £2.50 Bras perfect for teens for school. Nightwear esp dressing gowns. Men's £4-6 tracksuit bottoms, warm, cosy and long lasting and definitely not just for men. The little black mini skirts. Socks. Jeanswear won't last for ever but still good value for money.

The cotton multipack of bikini pants are the comfiest ones I own. You have to size up though - e.g I'm a size 12 but I buy the 14-16 and they're perfect, no digging in or marks on my skin at all. I love them !

Also the £5 jumpers are lovely and soft, wash them on a wool wash and they're fine. Also the £6 pyjamas and all their leggings (but size down for them - I get a 10) and their jeggings are also my favourites (just normal size with them)

chapthedoor · 24/09/2018 09:08

Are the velvet lined leggings see through ?

BananaBonanza · 24/09/2018 12:50

No quite the opposite! They are thick and solid. I wear them under skirts and dresses anyway

chapthedoor · 24/09/2018 18:44

Thanks I'll definitely get some now

Pinkywoo · 24/09/2018 19:13

They've just changed their sizing so now do 10-12, 12-14, 14-16 etc, much better!

NotANotMan · 24/09/2018 19:23

Excellent!

MikeUniformMike · 24/09/2018 20:06

Thanks for the tip on sizing up on the knickers.

butlerswharf · 24/09/2018 20:17

I think their pjs and bikinis are both really good.

Claw001 · 24/09/2018 20:23

I like their knickers, socks and pj’s and slippers. All wash well for me, even the slippers have been washed and tumbled!

BigRedBoat · 24/09/2018 20:24

I think they're great, it's really hard to find 100% cotton knickers that are reasonably priced and have nice patterns/colours so mine are pretty much all from primark!
