what are the best magic pants that suck it all in!?

Jools73, 23 September, 2008 at 19:22 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 10

I've bought a beautiful dress but it shows a few too many bumps! What are the best type? And do you usually buy your "size" or the size down?

    I rate these very highly http://www.marksandspencer.com/gp/product/B00130EE4O/sr=1-9/qid=1222194950/ref=sr_1_9/203-9763718-0584719?ie=UTF8&node=62870031&m=A2BO0OYVBKIQJM&keywords=&mnSBrand=core&size=9&rh=&page=

    I find that pants give the joint of pork effect but maybe I'm just overly lardy ?

    Spanx - unlike others (M&S in particular) they are cotton based so don't get all hot and sweaty around your bits

    They also have special edges so you don't get a sudden end of suck (or red marks which is useful if you're whipping them off before leaping into bed)

    I have the under bra to mid thigh ones which are super - they do also do a slip which is great if you don't want to risk big pant moments

    Spanx here too, and definitely get the correct size, otherwise you'll never get them on ?

    £14 a pop - brilliant - and cheap enough that you can have a few pairs for wearing every day

    How far up do the Spanx go? e.g Do they come to under the bust or just the waist?

    I ask because every pair of suck it all in pants I've tried have either left a big tyre of flab where the pants end, or they constantly roll down, leaving a tyre of fabric that looks like it's flab.

    My current pair from Matalan are so tight that after washing I can't even get them on.

    Spanx come all the way up to right under the bust, they don't roll down or dig in either, the top of them are soft.

    You might get a bit of a sweat on pulling them on, but it's well worth it ?

    Spanx do a load of styles from knickers, to right up to your bust and down to your knees and everything inbetween - including thong versions. They also do a full slip. They have very good sizing instrustions too.
