Designer forgot about the female form.
I had ordered from Spanx a few years ago without any issues. Recently ordered some high-waisted light-control boyshorts which had boa-constictor leg elastic. Ridiculous. Sent them back for the Supima cotton boyshorts, which were fine in the leg, but the vulvar area was not designed with a human woman in mind. I'm sure they would fit Spongebob Squarepants just fine, though. Unwearable. Both items were the same price, but Spanx said they couldn't do an exchange unless it was the same style. Why would I want another color or size of the style I hated? Anyway, I am a very squeaky wheel with plenty of time, so I eventually got an exchange and a full refund "as a one-time courtesy." It was not easy, and there will not be a second time for me. I'm not sure who is designing this stuff, maybe it's AI, who can't even count fingers.
