Pretty good

Yes, I recommend this

Comfortable and nice slinky texture but size up to avoid the dreaded "roll down"

My favourite underwear

Yes, I recommend this

These pants are so comfortable and are perfect for wearing under trousers as no VPL. This is the third batch I have bought. M&S please don't remove or change them.

Disappointing and uncomfortable

No, I don't recommend this

Have used M&S for no vpl pants for years and haven't been disappointed until now. Bought several pairs of these and have found them all uncomfy- sadly not noticeable until you're actually wearing them so too late to return. I can't decide if actually the fit is small or it's the low leg that's the problem- but over time they ride up at the front and the legs cut in. Also the waistband at the back is quick thick and unforgiving so not great when looking for true no vpl. Have tried all the pairs I bought just in case one was dodgy but have been disappointed by them all. Would be good to have some plain, no seam pants - like the ones M&S used to make.

No VPL - not really

No, I don't recommend this

I have bought these no VPL previously and this design is very different to the ones I have which are excellent. The leg at the front is much lower cut so so rolls up and cuts in ( making a very visible line); the width of the leg opening is smaller, so the back line cuts in ( another visible line) and the unnecessary stitched waistband on the back also cuts in! Most disappointed so will be returning them.

Not great style or fit

No, I don't recommend this

I thought these were quite frumpy. They ride up and the fabric feels very nylon. I wouldn't buy again.

Poor copy of much better item

No, I don't recommend this

I bought one pair of a similar style of knickers which fit brilliantly and are my favorites. They were the same price as theses but have been discontinued and these are the nearest similar item. These already look more worn and the cut is poor. M&S used to be a bit more expensive but a guaranteed reliable dependable good quality products. These do not fit this description.

Knickers

Yes, I recommend this

I purchased these in the blue and they are lovely. They fit well, look nice on and wash well. They are not totally VPL-free but better than some of the other No VPL knickers sold by M&S.

No VPL

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these last year to go on holiday and they were super comfy and wearing tight fitting dresses they did not show at all. I recently bought more pairs as I liked them so much however the same 'style & size' would appear to be slightly smaller than last years...(and no, I have not put on weight) I would still purchase them again though.

Low rise shorts with no VPL

Nice quality, extremely comfortable pants for under trousers. Excellent value for money. Have bought several pairs in different colours. A little on the small side compared to previous styles.

Brilliant knickers!

Yes, I recommend this

I have replenished my wardrobe with some pairs of these knickers. They have been improved with a hem on the upper edge for a closer fit. Great product, no VPL so looks good and feels good to wear. Recommended.
