Daisy Dreamer Ladies Briefs Maxi, 100% Cotton Full Comfort Fit Underwear

I bought these as I’ve reached that stage in life where thongs can only be used as floss material. I love big Bridget pants but struggle to find ones that don’t look like they’re part of a jump suit for geriatrics.These were really cheap for six pairs.The size look humongous when you unpack them and I pondered giving them as maternity pants to my daughter. However, once they’re on, they’re ok. The leg is well cut and the waist band doesn’t go anywhere near my belly button, unlike some that have been reviewed. So either I have a different cut or a bigger belly !Sizing is on the smaller side, so a 16-18 is definitely more a 16. As they’re cotton there’s no stretch but they seem a good quality and well made. Definitely good value for money.I won’t be hanging them on the line to dry though for fear I may encourage birds to nest in them. Bridget would be proud.I’d say yes, buy them.

I was in hospital when I ordered these. Purchased black, and was HORRIFIED when they arrived and were so thin you could see through them!! Absolutely unwearable on that basis alone. Material quality is absolutely appalling.They are also too small, which is ridiculous because I even ordered a larger size than normal.I can't return them, so these will be going to the charity clothes bin. And I pity the recipient, if they're expecting comfort and dignity from these pants!

Comfortable to wear.Easy to wash.

These are a very small size, supposed to be 22-24 but I would say they are equivalent to 18-20 at “the usual stores”, also quite brief in shape. They are 100% cotton and seem well made but the “wash dark colours separately” label troubles me. They are wearable, besides I can hardly return them after trying a pair on, which is the only way to judge the size, and they were very cheap, but I will not be buying again.

I normally buy Sloggis at around £6 per pair. I saw these pack of 6 for less than £8. The reviews were reasonable so I decided to give them a try. They looked huge and at first I thought I’d ordered or been sent the wrong size but no. I tried them on and they actually fitted ok. The reason they look so big is because there is not much stretch in them, like Sloggis. I washed them before wearing and they washed well, keeping their shape. For the price I can’t fault them, I didn’t expect highest quality and you get what you pay for.

Why did you choose this product over others?:Really great product

I purchased these for that particular time of month when I just need my comfy pants on. The design of these knickers is perfect for that. Full brief, roomy enough even for a maxi sanitary towel but with just a little bit of lace so they still have a hint of femininity.But did I get what I expected? Well I've never been so confused over pants in my life. I read the reviews, some said they were too big, some said too small, some said they fit fine. So I decided since they were cheap enough I'd just order my usual size (18-20) and try them.When they arrived they looked huge, you could almost mistake them for a parachute and I wondered, am I really that big? So I tried them on over the top of my own underwear and apparently yes, I AM that big. I had to remind myself though that these were full briefs so they were going to look bigger than my high leg briefs for example.Strangely although they looked huge they were quite a snug fit, however they didn't feel too bad so I figured they'd be fine.The sizing on the labels was confusing however. The cardboard packaging attached to the knickers said these were an 18-20 to fit hips 48"-50". The care label on them said 18-20 to fit hips 50-52" so which one is it? Confused? Me too. Especially since my hip measurement is 46" which according to the packaging would be a 16-18 but these would clearly be too small.Since they didnt feel too bad on i decided I'd wash them, wear them and see how I got on. Instructions for washing were also not clear. The package label says they can be washed at 40° and tumble dried. The care label on the knickers says wash at 30° and don't tumble dry.So i washed 3 pairs at 40° and tumble dried them. They shrunk. I've put them up against the non washed pair in the photo so you can see how much they shrunk by. As for the 30° wash non tumbled dried pairs, well they shrunk too although not quite as much.After washing, non of the knickers felt quite as comfy as when I first tried them on which was disappointing. Obviously they were now smaller and no longer covered all of my cheeks (essential for period pants for me) but I'm also used to 95% cotton and 5% elastane knickers though so i'm used to a little more stretch in the material.It's a shame because I really do like the design for what I wanted and they would suit the purpose well if I could get the size right. Plus they were a bargain price. If I was to purchase again I would certainly size up to allow for shrinkage after washing and the lack of stretch in the material.Overall the knickers are ok but I think some clarification on sizing is probably needed.(Edit)Although initially I would've be prepared to give these another try and sized up to allow for shrinkage and lack of stretch, I've now changed my mind. After being worn and washed only a few times on one pair the lace has frayed quite noticeably and on two other pairs it has separated from the main section of the knickers completely leaving a huge hole in them (I've added a photo so you can see how bad it is)So three out of 6 pairs are now in the bin within weeks. I guess they really are pants, so I've deducted another star and I won't be purchasing these again.

Best knickers I’ve brought in a long time they are comfortable and easy to put incontinance pads in nice and stretchy and look good I love the material and the come in a great choice of colours, and excellent value for money I’ve not washed them yet as I’m in hospital but judging by the feel of them they are going to be very washing machine friendly. I highly recommend as I’ve already purchased some more and will be getting some different colours next shop I do!!!!
