Face it , some women do not have a ferm well rounded bottom,but they wear bikini panties that amplify the fat where full panties would provide a much better picture.
If your a girl that works out and has a good ferm bottom then by all means thong or french cut panties don't create the extra lines .
I don't think the bikini style do any one favors, from my point of view.
It doesn't matter wether you are wearing a dress or slax these extra lines are not on your side.
I don't know if any of you look at the over hang from behind out of tight clothing sleveless tops but I do .
Flame me all you wish , it's just my observation.
I realize that one may not be able to do something right away about the weight ,but wearing clothing that is simply too tight only means your getting fatter not actually doing any thing about it.
You sure know ladies underpants. how's about stop gawking at women's arses and you'll be fine. ; )
By the way, mine is firm,not ferm.

Thigh high black leather boots,. Mini skirt, and tank top, with smoking hot short bolero jacket.

I am not ready for a red Hat and purple dress. Forget it.

As a golfer, I typically dress that way. Warm weather, shorts, polo shirts, no socks, leather loafers/deck shoes. Cold weather I go to long pants, sweater or pull over windbreaker over the polo shirt, and I wear socks. All my long pants are cuffed. I think that adds a bit of class. Cold days I wear a leather bomber jacket.

I rarely wear jeans but if I do, the rest stays the same.

I have several work out/athletic type suits that I will wear with a t-shirt and athletic shoes. I wear these only when it is cool.

I have not worn a short sleeve, buttoned sport shirt for years and I have about 12 of them (sedate to wild) in my closet going to waste.

If I have to dress for an event it will be long sleeve shirt and tie, double breasted, vent less blazer, slacks. I only have two suits left one of which was worn to a wedding a year ago and had not been worn for several years prior to that.

If it has to be ironed, I basically will not wear it.

The importance is this:

Machine washable
It fits
Comfortable
Won't fall down or out wearing it

I've noticed two trends on labels in the past, say 5 years - using the word "modal" instead of rayon (actually had to look up what the heck modal WAS and the answer is: rayon) and an increasing number of labels which say "hand wash or dry clean only" on fabrics which should be easily washed on the delicate cycle. I think some of it is the current use of beads and spangles on everything - they tend not to fare well in the washing machine and I think some of it is the manufacturers doing a CYA move.

But everything I own (with the exception of a leather coat, a good wool blazer, two expensive dresses - read, "over $250", one of which is a weddings dress and the other a funerals dress - a silk blend shirt which I hand wash, a couple of sweaters that I hand wash just to keep them from shrinking) goes into the washing machine and usually the dryer. Even if it says not to.

My dear, I am always au naturale. I am considering a simple piercing with a spare crown jewel, but right ear is jealous of her perogative to be pierced.

Was just out shopping today for some clothes. I went into one store which I used to love and hated everything in there. Plus most of the other shopper where about 20 years older than me. It seemed like all of the clothing where designed for much older people.

At another store I looked in the junior dept. but decided that I've got to stay out of there, way too young looking stuff.

I don't work so I don't really need work clothes. I spend a lot of times outdoors exercising or golfing so I need casual stuff. I like golf skirts with a sleeveless collard golf shirt.

Sun dresses are nice but I don't really like those Maxi dresses that much. When it's 90 out they can become really warm.

I do wear jean shorts but I work out everyday so my legs are still in pretty good shape.

I wear what I want and what I think looks good on me but I don't spend a lot of $$ on clothes.

One thing I have done is switched from heels to flats. I still put a pair on once in a while but before I wouldn't be caught dead in flats except for my running and golf shoes So I guess people do adjust!

In other words I don't care nearly as much what other people think and long as I think I look ok!
