The high rise design offers extra comfort and support throughout the day. M&S Collection: Easy-to-wear wardrobe staples that combine classic and contemporary styles.

New name, still your favourite midi fit Please don’t worry if the packaging name looks a little different, it’s still the same colour, our packaging just takes a little longer to update. Opaline formerly know an Almond.

Bring back the Midis’s

No, I don't recommend this

I used to always buy m and s knickers but they have changed so much I cant find any to suit. The high rise shorts (midis) are enormous, the low rise are tiny, the high legs are uncomfortable. I just want the midis back they were perfect . This year was the first year in ages they had the while multi pack which was great but can’t find any suitable ones 😢

Excellent quality underwear.

Yes, I recommend this

Fits well, washes well. These are super comfortable and i like that they are cotton but have lycra to keep the shape. They are great for every day wear and they don't cut in anywhere like some shorts do. The lace at the top means there's no elastic cutting into you. The colours are really nice too.

Excellent product, very comfortable, bought the black and the white but the neutral was too dark. Managed to find the Opaline in another product in the same style. Very pleased with my new underwear.

Good enough but prefer previous Midi style

I bought these to replace a selection of previously purchased Marks and Spencer knickers. They are ok. I like the high percentage of cotton. However, in keeping with other reviews, I prefer the previous Midi style. These appear to be the nearest fit. I also would have liked some non lace options in oatmeal to match the oatmeal bra sets.

Lovely big comfy pants!

Yes, I recommend this

Have had several pairs over the years. Wouldn’t buy from anywhere else. Tip: always buy the next size up (no one sees the label & they’ll be more comfortable)

Not a good fit!

No, I don't recommend this

Of the 5 knickers, only two fit, the other three were either too big or too small. The gussets are ridiculous, if I has wanted a thong, then that is what I would have bought ... not impressed at all.

Ok knickers

Good cotton knickers my only issue is why is the gusset so thin , not great coverage for the style of knickers
