Control pants / shapewear

Anyone got any recommendations for some of these ? I really like the idea if the kind that do your legs bottom and tummy

Somethng like http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_158010111960_-1?breadcrumb=Home~Lingerie~Shapewear+%26amp%3B+control+lingerie

but has anyone used them before ? I just don't know if they are worth it or not

TIA xx

  • Hiya - i've brought a miracle suit to go under mine, its really good really tightens everything up. When i tried mine on for the first time, i put on a pair of jeans which i haven't been able to get into for years and they went up and buttoned up comfortably.
  • Look on ebay love they are much cheaper there. I got some from M&S last friday think they were only £9 but not spanx :)

    HA! I remember being a size 18 and looking round Debenhams for some and I saw they only went up to a size 14 (a few years ago now) and I was with my Dad, raging... "What's the point of fat pants if you're not even fat AARRRRRHGGGG" :D

    PS, she may be thin and slender, but she either has zero boobs or they're 2ft higher than they should be so at least gain some comfort from that :rotfl:
    I love surprises!

    Agreed! She's been pulled so out of proportion she'd make Keira Knightley look short and dumpy....

  • I've got a Nancy Ganz Body slimmer ([FONT=&quot]Fixed Strap Padded Bra-slip) and I love it It means that size 14's slide over my curves rather than cuddle them. :)
