Slimming shorts to tuck it all in!

Hi all,

Does anyone know where I can get some slimming shorts that come right up under the bust and right down to the knee! :o I'm only a size 12 but I'll be wearing a very unforgiving satin dress and I don't want any bulges!

Thanks in advance :o

    Has to be magic knickers collection form M&S. they are the only ones I know that don't just re-create a huge tyre further up your stomach as the knickers presses the flesh elsewhere :D They don't go as long or as high as you are wanting but they will flatten and shpe you like no others.

    I dont know if you have a Netto nearby but either today or it may have been Monday they had in slimming shorts. In the picture they went down to just above the knee and the top of them i really dont remember how far up they went. Just looked on their site to see if they still have them showing but they dont so it must have been one of Mondays offers. They would still have some left if they didnt sell out. They were very cheap at just £1.99 a pair.
  • No Netto near me unfortunately. Thanks for the M&S suggestion but I really want the long leg ones.

    think m and s do both, short and long leg ones. they are sold with the tights, not with big pants. did nude or black if i remember. [still did not help my dress though, as it was far too clingy :D ]
  • are these exactly the same ones that trinny and susannah recommend on 'what not to wear' ?
  • oops.. i meant are the m&s ones .. the same as what trinny and susannah reccomend?
