odd question

I know a lot of women are planning on wearing Spanx or something under their dress.  I'm not really trying to suck it all in, but in all honesty I DO want something to keep my thighs from touching.  It's just so hot under that dress, and when my thighs touch they tend to sweat if it's warm out.  I may use powder, but I think I would be most comfortable if I had some kind of undergarment/short that at least goes mid-thigh.  Honestly, I would love it to be cotton since I live in Florida and my ceremony is outside (even in October it can be hot down here), but most of what I have seen in the stores isn't even a cotton blend.  If it can't be cotton, I don't want it to be too thick/constraining.

Any suggestions???  (Thanks!)

I was married outdoors in Gainesville Memorial weekend last year.  I had the same issue and I ended up wearing Spanx.  It was a good thing I did because I was so hot all night long.  I recommend Spanx because they stayed put.  I tried on other brands but they always rolled up (or down at the waist).

I don't know the silhouette of your dress, but if it's not too tight I bought a pair of slip shorts to wear under everyday skirts and dresses. It's the same slip material, but they are shorts so your thighs won't rub.They are sort of loose like a slip, too. I'm pretty sure I got them at Macy's or a similar department store.

Spandex rocks! It doesn't curl up like the PP was saying.

I like Assets - same designer as spanx and sold at target.  She makes the kind that are shorts - go up to waist and feel pretty comfotable on.

I was going to wear hi-power spanx but I was so hot without them.  I am keeping my eyes open for some other mid-thigh undergarments.  I may try the short slips

I know that a lot of department stores are carrying cotton-blend leggings since the 80's look is coming back...could you just find a pair and hem them to your desired length??

This sounds funny, but what about compression type/spandex shorts? I wear them when I run to keep my thighs from rubbing, so it could work under the dress too. I have a pair of white ones that were $7.99 at Academy. Just an idea.

Thanks for all the ideas, ladies!  I am so much more hopeful about going out and looking some more.  :-)
