Donna Karan Mid Thigh Shaper

“The Body Perfect Collection will change the way you feel about getting dressed. They give you extra toming as well as a smooth line under even your most body-conciuos clothes. I love mine, if I am not wearing hosiery, I’m wearing The Body Perfect Collection”

- Donna Karan

Our Review

These control briefs come in two weights and several lengths. We reviewed the mid thigh length in the lighter weight.

The packaging is quite OTT, with the packet inside a Velcro fastened fold out outer packet.

You did read correctly... these are control top pantyhose... without the hose! 

The look and feel is very much like of a swimming costume or a pair of lightweight cycling shorts.

n/a Denier, 76 % Nylon, 24 % Lycra, Price: $30.00

The flat seams give a very smooth finish and the absence of both waistband and leg “cuff” ensure perfectly smooth finish with no bulging. If you really must go bare legged these would be perfect under a knee length skirt to give you a smooth silhouette.  Although we would suggest combining these briefs with sheer to waist tights/pantyhose as an alternative to control top hosiery.

Helen has taken these on for a long term test.  Her first impressions are that they are far more comfortable to wear than control top pantyhose/tights.  They shape and smooth without constricting and are much better than similar offerings from the likes of Spanx.

A resounding endorsement from a lady who hates the very words “control top”.
