Big Knickers

This thread reminded of my DD in New York one December when it was extremely cold. She's a size 10 and went into Victoria's Secret's and asked for the 'biggest knickers you've got' as she wanted to layer several pairs. They looked at her askance but finished up having a good laugh about it.

I don't want to feel I'm wearing knickers. By which I mean I hate to be constantly tugging and wriggling adjusting them. At the moment I'm between a size 10 and a 12 but happily wear what my DD calls 'Mum's big knickers,'

Hi nadateturbe - I am interested to know what knickers are comfortable in bed, please?

I wear naxi sloggis too during the day but not at night. They feel uncomfortable in bed.
They are mostly cotton, 5% elastane. Don't dry in tumble drier or on a radiator.

M&S full knickers for me no roll down at all size 14 can't be doing with lacy ones they are uncomfortable on the tummy.
My mum always bought Ethel Austin "double gusset" knickers she was devestated when they stopped making them.

Nice to hear of Ethel Austin again. I grew up with that shop and still miss it, very good value.
I still have a couple of “roll-ons” I wouldn’t be without from EA and have resorted to mending them, not something I make a habit of…

Certainly not arewethereyet. Gransnet is not that sort of place ?

Its early days, but I think these may be "the ones".

They'll need to go through some rigorous tests, obviously, but indications are good so far.

In the first movie, when Bridget Jones was plump, didn't she have some big knickers? Probably comfortable.

She called them scary stomach holding in pants, so maybe not all that comfortable!

Do let us know if they’re comfy and well fitting. Scratchy knickers are no good to anyone.

...and pictures too of course

My first swathe of new knickers have just arrived!

They're a sight for sore eyes.
Very sturdy, no nonsense colours.

These are some cheaper Amazon ones, but they look up to the job!

Quite the opposite here.

Is it just me but I can’t wear anything with any form of lace on it. Even pictures of lacy bras or knickers make me itch.

Three Sloggis for £12 on amazon.

Not bad, not bad.

....and Sloggis last for ever !

Absolutely! My Sloggis are verging on antique, but are still in good condition and are so comfortable -- no VPL either

I prefer cotton big knickers and Sloggi are Lycra. I do have a Sloggi comfort bra that is very comfortable.

Oooh...
The Sloggis are starting to appeal.

I'm making my life miserable by wearing bargain ones.

I would also say that this is not something where you should try and save money. Perhaps buy fewer pairs and wash more often, but get good quality.

After all, it's something you wear all day and every day, and, like shoes, they need to be comfortable.

I have found that a wider, good quality elastic at the top will not roll down so readily.

Failing that, you could always fix braces to them!

If I have them that long I'll end up with a bulging neck!

Actually, they looked like small knickers but long!!

My friend suggested I buy Spanx shapewear to wear to DD's wedding (it was fine, no offence, she was larger than me and had worn them at her DD's wedding).
They were like huge knickers, went down the thighs, up beyond the waist. I endured them throughout the ceremony and the photos (well worth it looking back!) then went to our room and discarded them.

She's great, and she looks better without her spanx.

I know you must have seen this video before but I thought others might want a laugh.
I’ve watched this video so many times but every time I see it I still howl with laughing.

I have a watch alert on a pack of Sloggis on Ebay, currently.

Hey seem to be the favourites.

I'm hoping the seller might send me a special offer on them.

Sloggi Control knickers are good for holding in the tum , without being restrictive.
