Has anyone tried Hanes Alive or Givenchy body Shapers pantyhose? What are they like?

Wanting to try a support pantyhose.|||Stacy,





Do yourself a favor.. spend a little cash and get some nice pantyhose. Legg's, Hanes, and No-Nonsense are drugstore hosiery and there truly is something MUCH MUCH better available.





You can fine really nice (but moderately expensive-- about $12-$30) brands at the following locations (You can cut and paste these into your browser)

(Vintage Stockings and pantyhose)





Some of my wife's favorite brands include:


Pretty Polly Italia Semi Sheer Tights-


Cecilia De Rafael Agata 20--


Cecilia De Rafael Rubino 22


Glamour "Ginesta 40"


Aristoc Ultra Soft --


Pompea Sheer 30 --





All of these brands have flat seams in the panty - Fully boarded legs (meaning that the leg is pressed and is shaped for a woman legs unlike cheap drugstore hose)





Most of the brands that I recommended are VERY SHINY/ VERY GLOSSY and when worn with a nice dress.. These will make heads turn.. and you will notice it !





The Ginestra 40's are more 'support' like according to my wife..





However, if you visit www.shapings.com you can find many many more different types of hosiery. (including some the even boost your bum into a more desirable shape much like a bra would)





Hope this helped...|||Hello,


I would highly recommend Givenchy style pantyhose. They are great for support and yet still are somewhat sheer. I like style 575 sheer to wasit.
