These are heaven for those of us with chubby and sweaty thighs. I wear a size 8-10 in dresses, and yes, these are plus size, but the 1X fit me anyway. They do stretch though, so they will fit larger ladies. I used to be a size 22, so I can say that with some confidence. The material is so soft and they do not ride up. The waist band is bulky though, but otherwise no complaints. These are my favorite of all of the slip shorts I've tried comfort wise. If you want some shaping or smoothing though, See full review
