Apparently M&S have collaborated with Anne Summers and are selling lacy crotchless thongs. Each to their own of course but I was surprised. 😳

When I was still shopping for my mother in law I went into M&S and asked an assistant if they had any old lady's knickers. She looked very offended and said "Do you mean like the ones I wear?" I don't know what she would have thought of crotchless ones.

Of course crotchless was good enough for Queen Victoria, but she might have drawn the line when it came to thongs.

I own up to liking matching colours where possible.

You should have said ‘ I don’t know, show me the ones that you’re wearing’ 🤔
No wonder Queen Vic had so many kids, she was ever ready like the batteries.

I have visions of the crotchless wearers forgetting and ending up doing a Sharon Stone

I prefer Harvest Home knickers. You know, "all is safely gathered in."

What’s all this about nobody sees your lacey underwear. Do it for yourself.

I love this thread.
Like GN in the good old days.

I always wear matching.
Washed out beige, seen better days navy, and that sort of thing.

Oh Miss A , my illusions are well and truly shattered. Or it could be a double bluff perhaps?

I think they would be a little draughty.

Its as true as I'm riding this unicycle. grin

I think you should be on the marketing team FGT..brand them S &M. Perhaps they'll introduce private toys too 😜

I have often gone commando when wearing long posh frocks underwear can and does spoil the fall of the fabric.

You'll need more than crotchless knickers for that.

Have you tried the other new M&S option, the Skims equivalent, I think it’s called Body. They are great, no seams, including on the legs, and really comfortable - the flesh coloured pants are invisible under trousers?

Usedtobeblonde Sun 02-Aug-26 21:20:08

As has been said many times before ….50 shades of grey…. and that’s just my knickers..

I go commando plus no bra every evening. I have a long washed out pink linen frock bought on a street market in Spain for thirty euros 8 years ago. I’ve always loved the frock but even I think it’s a tad scruffy for out of the house these days. It’s perfect for on the sofa, glass of dry white watching Rivals. I wonder what kind of knickers Jillie Cooper wore? I imagine she was a matching colours lace girl

I agree Millie22! I like a bit more material beneath my nethers,
