This is my first pair of Maidenform panties. I'm very picky about my underwear. I prefer they not only look pretty but also be very comfortable. Once I find a brand, cut, style that meets my expectations I pretty much stick with that brand. For MANY years I only worn Victoria's Secret. No other brand - ever. In time like most things the quality was not up to par. A few years ago I tried Jockey's panties on my search for another brand/style/cut that I liked. Since then I've only worn Jockey and Victoria's Secret. I've learned which style, cut and fabric works best for me in both brands. This time when I was ordering new panties and ran across this pair of Maidenform underwear. They were a little cheaper than the Jockey brand so I decided to try a ONE pair fully expecting to try them and throw them away like MANY other brands I've tried. To my surprise these are AMAZING! They are really beautiful. The colors are very nice and compliment each other. The fabric is soft and silky but not too silly so that they slide around. The cut is VERY comfortable. I think this style is forgiving for nearly any woman's figure. They are definitely sexy and make you feel "pretty" but are as comfortable as your favorite old undies that you wouldn't want anyone to see except you. Yep... they are that great!

I would recommend these to pretty much anyone. They are at least worth a try.

I used the sizing chart to decide which size to purchase. When I use these charts I generally go by the hip measurements to make my size selection. The hip number always seems more accurate than the waist number as far as panty sizing.

I purchased the Steel Pin Stripe with Black in a size 7. I am about a size 12. These panties are sized the same way as Jockey sizes their panties. So if you wear a 7 in Jockey maybe try a 7 in these if you don't have a tape measure. The size "7" (or 5, 6, 8 etc) in these panties is not the same as the size you wear in pants or jeans. If you try to order the same size (based on your jeans/pants size) you will be very disappointed in the fit!
