Looking for some advice from the curvy ladies out there!! I struggle to get hold ups to stay up!! Im a size 14 and I've tried all different types and sizes but the buggers just won't stay up!! My legs are chunky but i see bigger girls rocking them so they must work!!

Any suggestions?? Mr loves them!!

Make sure you wave the gun around a lot and maybe fire off a round or two but try not to shoot anyone. Always wear masks and use code names or false identities.

Have you tried plus size ones?

Not saying you are plus size, but they have a thicker band at the top and might stop them rolling down? Never tried them personally but it’s what I’d do as I have chunky thighs!

Hairspray on the band can help.

I have chunky thighs and swore by M&S recently bought some Primark ones and was really impressed!

I wear them all the time. Primark are good but my favourites are Tesco, they’re black and glossy. Mine hold up fine but if they start to lose the grip you’ve got to moisten the grip on the inside of the hold up. Once you do that they stay up fine. Hope this helps x

Wide bands ... pricey is worth it you can also get a roll on that helps. Steer clear of any body lotion or oil as they make your skin skippy. Also if they survive one wearing (mine never do) wash with no fabric conditioner and don’t let the sticky bits stick to each other. Xxx

Primark hold ups are great. They stay on place and wash fine.

I’ve not found primark any good personally. M&S all the way.

The hair spray trick works.

Make sure they have a silicone band around the tops and not just a nylon strip. If they loosen up when you are out and you don't have hairspray, spittle on the silicone is a good alternative

Asda sheer or opaque ones stay up really well but I always spray a load of hairspray round the top of my leg as well before sticking them on, works a treat! If we're at a club I always leave a tin of hairspray in our locker so I can re-stick if the evening has got a bit energetic & sweaty & they start to sag!

Although I mainly wear stockings, I do also wear hold ups at times. I was stuck for time once and got some in Primark and they are great and stay up really well. It might be worth trying different sizes M or L etc. M&S are good as well. I did wear a pair recently that were expensive and kept falling down

I have large thighs and find the Ann Summers range of hold ups in a large size fit well, are comfy, and stay put all night.

Primark, £2.50 a pair, they have 3 black bands round and go no where! I’ve got Chunky legs and I’m a size 18. I buy the L/XL and they’re fab. Their lace once don’t stay up for long though x

Primark hold ups are great, the larger size also seems to have a bit more length in the leg which helps stop them rolling

I had heard that they are the same as M&S just repackaged ... and a lot cheaper too, either way they seem to be best for value and stayupability

I have chunky legs to, and I get mine on e Bay. Search plus size hold ups, and the girl on the packet is blonde sat on a chair. They're usually 5.95 and they have a thick band with really sticky rubber band. They are great for me!

The other ones if I haven't got time and need then in a hurry are Yours (the plus size shop). They stick like glue.

Deffo not m&s repackaged.

I wear marks because not only do I have chunky thighs, I also have long legs, and marks are the only ones that will fit. I keep trying Primark but no way, they just won't fit

Another vote for Primark. No other holdups have ever worked for me. Primark are brilliant.
