This was an issue, what, 20 years ago?
The issue now is whale's tails.

NO pantie lines

and

do Not wear clothes so tight it outlines your body parts

Also unless you have a flat stomach do NOT wear half shirts (I hate seeing gals with their flab hanging over their jeans and nothing to cover it

I used to love Glamour just for it's DON'TS page.

PS....
To wear thongs comfortably, wear them about 2 sizes larger.
