Hello, I have been a fan of Hanes Ladies hipsters & bikinis. XTemp and cotton were always my favorite. I have always purchased size 6. The narrow band bikinis were a hit but seem to wear extremely quick. The wide band xtemp hipsters are awkward. Almost too loose on the waistband. I have also worn the cotton hipsters which are great. At one time I purchased the heathered cotton bikinis. Great looking panties but the fit was way off. My complaint is the sizes don't seem to be consistent. The heathered panties were way too big for their size 6. The xtemp wide band do not stay on. Size seems larger also. Cotton & Xtemp hipsters seem good on size. But Xtemp doesn't hold up as far as wear. Gina Edwards ginalynn63.[protected]@gmail.com
