If you have never worn Barelythere you need to give them a try.  They are sooooo comfortable.  The waist band is part of the panty and you can't even feel it.  Your derriere is really covered (and mine is ample) with no riding up.  I like the high cut style.  I can't even feel the panty on my skin.  The fabric is light, smooth and very supple.  I buy 6 pair a year and they last through countless machine washings.  They do not fall apart, pill or lose shape.
