where to buy magic 'hold it all in' knickers (pref on high street, not online)!?

foreign_correspondent

Where on the high street sells any? and are there any particular brands you would avoid/recommend?

I dont want the ones with legs in, as my legs are ok, its just my belly (ok, bellys, plural) that need controlling.

I have a pair of cheapo ones from Tesco, and they are ok, but if anything I could do with them being an inch or two longer in the body...

Don't want to spend an arm and a leg on a really posh pair, as I am on a diet, and hoping to lose more weight.

Any info appreciated!

I bought my waist cincher direct from Maidenform. Cost £18 and it's boned Something similar from M&S cost £30 and wasn't even boned :eek: In fact the one I tried from M&S was rubbish.

I have a pair of these and although I feel a bit like Bridget Jones, I absolutely adore them. They work for me and at the moment they are £1

they are a pound if you are a size 8 or 10.( if brought on line)

if i were that size i wouldnt need them at all.

I like Pretty Polly Secret Slimmer knickers.

Very supportive, under slim-fitting dresses, and not too ug-bug.

Debenhams seem to have a variety when I've looked.

I've decided I'd rather be able to breathe. :rotfl:

thats what I need the ones that come up high, to control the old love handles, not the ones that stop at your bellybutton!

Will try Primark and Debenhams tomorrow, thanks.

I haven't ever tried them, but i know i saw a large range in bham primark last weekend.
Good luck with the search!

I got a body tube thingy for wearing under dresses from Asda for £6. It's not too tight as well so you can still breathe and enjoy your meal in comfort :T
