Idea was initially mooted by employee of retailer, which worked with Colostomy UK to gain expert insight
Marks & Spencer has long been a destination for British women to buy knickers – and, this month, it is an option for even more of them. The retailer is the first high street store to sell knickers designed to be worn with a stoma bag.
Available from this weekend from selected stores and online, the knickers use pockets on the inside to accommodate a stoma or multiple stomas to help protect against leaks, while the high-waisted fit and wide waistband give support to the wearer. Priced at £18 for a three-pack, they are significantly cheaper than those available from specialist stores, which are typically about £14 a pair.
