Customer Reviews Hanky Panky Signature Lace Retro Thong

I am "thin", but my body isn't perfect...a bit soft in the middle after kids and my hips a bit bigger than I'd like. That said, feeling sexy in a thing is as much about comfort as it is about style. I like these a lot. I haven't spent thins much money on lingerie in a while and I am back to buy more! They give the "no VPL" look I want, without feeling "flossed" by a thong. Sexy, sophisticated, grown-up. Awesome.

The best thing about shopping on Zappos.com is what you're doing now - reading customer reviews. My wife loves thongs, but will not buy them in a store because something about them is always wrong for her. Finally, in frustration, I began shopping for her online, reading reviews by women who were looking for the same qualities - fit, comfort, style. She loves the Hanky Panky Retro and Medium Rise Thongs, and I love the fact that she's comfortable in what she's wearing. (And she looks fabulous!) The customer reviews on Zappos are absolutely invaluable.

This thong was comfortable and easy to wear. No panty lines, I would definitely order another.

They fit great! I love this style of Hanky Panky, there is just a little more coverage up front. The price is good on Zappos and shipping is free. They are a little expensive but I will never wear any others! I would not put them in the dryer though...they will last longer if you drip dry them.

Love these! They hold everything in place and are still thongs, so you don't really feel like you are wearing granny panties. I have 3 pairs now. They are a great investment.

This is my first thong and I am very happy with it. It fits a size 12 nicely. The tummy control is there but not obviously so. And they are very sexy.

I ordered these to wear under my wedding gown but was hesitant with this one-size-fits-all business. Imagine my surprise when they fit comfortably and were adorable, to boot! (I typically wear a size S panty but occasionally wear a M in some brands.) There was plenty of stretch in these, and while I don't think one size will fit all, I do think one size will fit anyone who wears an XS-L in something like Victoria's Secret or Wacoal panties. I find that it's almost a stretch to call these a thong--they have full coverage in the crotch and merely show a little cheek in the back, which, I suppose, is what makes them so comfortable. Some thongs give one that perpetual wedgie feeling, but not these!

These panties are AMAZING! I can never fit into anything that's One Size Fits All (especially undies!) but these turned out to be what I've wanted my whole, petite plus sized life! In fact the description said up to size 14 but I wear a 16 and they still fit and look great! The lace band is wide enough (5 1/2 inches) to hold everything together without digging into my extra soft body at all! On my extra large bottom, they cover less of the cheek than shown in the product photos, but that turned out great for me, giving a flattering "tanga" look! I bought one pair to try them out (it seems like a lot of money for one pair but when I think of all the cheap pairs I've bought and shredded from target, it feels like a deal!) and just ordered 4 more since the quality and fit is so exceptional. These are truly versatile enough to be called "one size" and bonus - no VPL! I'll be back for more soon so PLEASE ZAPPOS, STOCK THESE LIL' GEMS FOREVER!

Great fit and feel. Better for under pants than the regular Hanky Pankys. I totally recommend these.

I have always loved Hanky Panky, so when I discovered the retro thong I decided to try it. I'm so happy I did, nice soft lace that stays put and is great for flattening your tummy a bit. I'm going to buy every color it comes in!

Really nice: sexy & comfortable! No tugging, no flossing...hugs the tummy nicely and does not shift or roll. Fits a size 10 really well, but could fit smaller and larger sizes too - nice elastic, pretty lace.

I have been a fan of the Hanky Panky regular thong for quite a while. I recently discovered the Retro Thong, and they are my new favorite! The lace is soft, comfortable and they stay put. For me, this offers some of the coverage of a regular style panty, with the benefit of a thong, for a smooth look.

This is my 1st thong purchase and I couldn't be happier. I needed something to wear under my yoga pants vs. going "commando". These are amazing. Slightly wider than a mid rise, they cover your tummy, feel supportive in the front, and do not have a VPL in the back. I want to buy every color now. Once you find something this good, just buy it in multiples!

I really wanted to love these but they are just ok. They look great from the front, but still kinda ride up in the back. Maybe I just need to stop trying to like thongs and thong-like underwear? I do like that there's no panty line though!

These are some of my very favorite panties! They are super soft and comfortable and give me a little support around my tummy and love handles. I wash them in a lingerie bag and then hang to dry and they have been very durable.

Wore these for my wedding and found them to be extremely comfortable all day and night. I definitely preferred them to a traditional thong. I am a size 6/8 and they fit great. Highly recommended.

The most comfy and attractive panties I've ever worn. I love the color selection. I wear these or the Hanky Panky original rise thong every day.

Was hesitant at first (love the low-rise thongs and the boy shorts), but these are great! They feel fancier than my other Hanky Pankys. One note- not for low rise jeans! But so pretty and so comfortable...

these are terrific; they feel a little odd at first since I'm used to tiny thongs, but once you have them on for a few minutes you'll hardly notice them at all. The lace is nice and soft but seems like it will hold up and not fall to pieces, it gives nice core/tummy support and looks really sexy. I tend to wear yoga pants all the time and while those are form fitting I don't see any VPLs with these. Going to order more of these before they're gone.

I wanted a sexy pair of underwear that would smooth out my low tummy without looking like granny panties. I think that they do a pretty good job. They smooth out the front and sides of the stomach so that my body looks smoother in curve hugging clothing. I will note that the thong portion is quite thick. However, I did not find it very uncomfortable. I would also say that the underwear is extremely stretchy making them comfortable and also a more universal fit.

I really want to love these panties, and I'll keep the ones I bought, because the lace is so pretty and comfortable, but I don't understand how anyone can say they don't get "flossed" by them, because it happens to me every time I wear them. My backside is pretty flat, despite having a classic hourglass figure, and I imagine that's why thongs just don't work for me. However, the reason I'm keeping them is that I'm incredibly impressed with the feel and fit of the stretch lace, and I love the way these look! I'm on the large size of Hanky Panky's large and they really do fit me, though it doesn't look the way it does on the model, because it doesn't come up as high on my waist. Also the flossing is not as bad as other thongs I've tried and I do love the look of them, plus no VPL is just necessary for some outfits.

Panties are well made and comfortable. However, the one-size-fits-all does not work for me. Too much panty...and they come up over my waist line.

Good quality

everyone needs these!!
