Great big knickers

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

These are full on big knickers. Well made and pretty pastel colours. Has my life come to this? They are the equivalent of a chastity belt, absolute passion killers. If you like sensible female knickerbockers these are the post modern answer. No style but practicality form and function. Does my bum look big in these ? Absolutely. Comfortable too. Covers all.

Quality getting worse

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

These were lovely pants years ago but have become cheaply made which reflects the price but I would rather pay more for quality. Come on M&S you were always known for quality underwear

Great waistband comfort!

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Because of the string of the waistband, these are particularly comfortable. I just hope that they are not discontinued as they are my “go to”!

Nice quality and very comfortable fitting. They give a nice outline when wearing with dresses rather than the slightly lower fitting alternatives.

Great knickers but they size is not consistent

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

These are lovely pants but as quite a few other people have commented on, they suffer from the Marks and Spencer’s ‘shrinking’ syndrome. When measured with the exact same knickers I bought a couple of weeks ago they are easily an inch smaller at the waist.

Ideal knickers for the gym. Very comfortable, breathable and stay in place. I like the lace at the top too.

Rose quarts knickers

This style is not suitable for me, I prefer full brief but they are very plain in the rose quartz shade, a little bit of lace would make them look nicer

Colour?

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Colour? I find this style of pants very comfortable and have bought them for years. The lace waistband is attractive and fits/stays put. My complaint is with the colour, they seem far too dark, I prefer the opal shade. Great value, though
