Spanx Slim Cognito —

I've tried many brands and styles of "shapewear" so when I saw this new Slim Cognito by Spanx, I was excited to see that it had attachments to hold the garment to your bra. In the past I've found that the styles with bra attached never fit right, and the ones without a way to secure the top of the garment to a bra rolled down. When my order arrived, the first thing I did was get my favorite bra and attach the straps to the center, and both sides, and this DOES work to keep the material from rolling. BUT.....and here is what I meant by "unmentionables", when you have to go to the bathroom, the opening at the crotch area is either too small or not positioned correctly because there's no way to pee without getting the pee on the material!! Please pardon this, but the ability to go to the bathroom in one of these things, in my opinion, is very important, PARTICULARLY when you have the thing attached to your bra and unable to be pulled down! Easy solution for this problem is for Spanx to add SNAPS to the crotch so it can simply be unsnapped, then RE-snapped when done, without having to completely undress! Other than this one (important) problem, the idea does work as far as keeping it in place.
