The next generation of magic knickers is here: Courtesy of Tightsplease, I present to you the super knicker.
Men - look away now.
Spanx are the leading light of the magic knicker genre. Beloved by women, never seen by men, these knickers have enabled the wearing of dresses, skirts and trousers which would otherwise have been hurled to the back of the wardrobe in disgust. Now you don't need to blame the washing machine for shrinking things(god forbid it would have been all those glasses of wine and choccie biccies), you can simply shoehorn yourself into a pair of Spanxes and dresses and skirts will slide alluringly over your hips without a bulge in sight.
There was always one problem with traditional magic knickers - lets call them First Generation Knickers (FGK). The night would start out well, you would be looking trim and happy in your outfit. But lo and behold, as the night wore on, you had some drinks, you ate some dinner, you were having a bit of a boogie, your FGKs would roll up or roll down and end up some place they weren't meant to be. All the compressed flesh that had been vacuum packed inside would suddenly swoosh out with calamitous consequences. Bulges! Spare tyres! Fat back! The horror!

Thankfully Spanx have recognised the gravity of this almost inevitable event. They have extended their famous Power Panties to create a shaping girdle that reaches up to your bust. Unlike FGKs these Higher Power Panties have no tight leg bands which can dig in or ride up. Apparently "unique technology" holds everything in place and prevents movement or bulging. The extended top means you look slimmer all the way from your bust to your knees and hides VPL.
You can buy buy Spanx and all manner of brilliant foundation garments at Tightsplease . They've got wonderous garments that will hold you in/push you up (or both) that can be hard to find - and very expensive - in the shops here
Alas to say the Caffeine Tights are still not back in stock... boo. But you can register your interest to hurry them back in!
Now you do know that VPL means visible panty line don't you? For a laugh, a couple of years ago, we had an "image consultant" come to our workplace for a bit of light relief. She seperated the men and women into groups and gave advice. She was an absolute state herself so we didn't take her too seriously. However the men were totally mysified by the abbreviation VPL which she kept warning them about. They should only wear boxers to avoid this travesty occuring. A few drinks were called for after work to discuss the days events. The men confessed they found the VPL remarks a bit risque. Turned out they thought it meant Visible Penis Line!
