Underwear

5 replies

namechanged221 · 29/07/2023 08:17

I want to splash out on some new underwear.
especially lots of new pants.

The problem is, whenever I buy pants they are often uncomfortable and maybe the wrong size. But you can't try these things on?

So I go back to wearing my old ones. Which are in a bad state! And they are too big as I e list lots of weight.

Where is the best place to buy nice underwear and how does one ensure it's going to be comfy?

Any recommendations on nice comfy yes not totally unsexy pants??

You buy one pair/one small pack at a time until you find the ones you like that fit, then you go back and get 10-20 (depending on price/budget) in the same style, in every colour you can get/slightly appeals. It’s a pain. Different body shapes suit different styles and sometimes going up a size helps and sometimes it makes them horrendously uncomfortable.

Ohh.... what do you do with all the failed pairs?

OP, rightly or wrongly (some would argue wrongly), M&S will let you exchange knickers if they are tried on over a pair of your own.

Personally, I buy 2 pairs of matching knix when I buy a new bra and supplement them with (mainly) M&S Brazilians. Nut we are all different in shape size and tastes.

If you want others to help you, I think we need to know about style sought, size etc.

Oh that's grim. How do they know you've tried them on over knickers?

Ohhh right :/ yes that's trusting I think!

I'm a size 12 or 10 in some shops. But I have quite wide hips even so!

I don't like pants that ride up or go up your bum:/

I prefer natural fabrics.
