Perhaps the easiest way would be to just buy them online.

Have you tried making your own 'arangements'?

What exactly is a gaff ?

Is it like a kind of thong ?

Do women really use them, or just older TVs ??

I'd just go for tucking and holding things in with medium strong lycra control panties you can get in any store ... you can get them in really pretty designs too, high leg, bikini, even thong.

Soo pleased I no longer need to worry about such things  ...  ;D ...

I have them and use them occasionally.  But a panty girdle works better.  And yes, Laura it is like a thong.  But you can only get them on-line.  There are many other things that work better, cheaper and are available in stores.

Sorry, all the ones they sell are ginormous, I have tiny hips tyvm.

I generally just buy a thong, cut out part of the back and sew it back together so it's tighter over the groin area.  Cover it up w/ a bikini and you're SET.

Get's me around on a motorcycle... that's saying something.

I got my info from here: http://radio.->-bleeped-<-radio.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1691 (//http:///phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1691)

Personally I just wear ordinary full bottomed knickers and everything sits nicely.
Although I must admit that things sit much more nicely after a year on the hormones.  ;)

The BreastFormStore is here in Vancouver, so yes I have gone in there and purchased them retail.

:)

P.S. A tight swimsuit bikini bottom works nicely as well.
