THE UK heatwave isn’t going anywhere just yet, and this little-known brand has a genius hack for keeping cool.
Shoppers have been racing to pick up Thigh Society’s Cooling Slip Shorts, that work to minimise sweating and chafing in the warm weather.
Thigh Society Cooling Shorts, £36
The stretchy shorts are similar to shapewear, but rather than being compressive, they have a breathable fit that still helps to smooth lumps and bumps.
Made with a lightweight, silky fabric, the Thigh Society Shorts have been praised by online shoppers for having an “insanely cooling and comfortable” fit.
They come in six lengths for upper thigh coverage, above-the-knee coverage or below-the-knee coverage.
The sheer design makes the shorts wearable under most clothing items including dresses and skirts, with 11 colour choices including beige, almond and mocha to blend with skin tones.

Chafing is more likely to occur during the warm weather, and anti-chafe shorts create a barrier between the legs to prevent friction.
Thigh Society’s shorts add an extra element of prevention by using cooling fabric that pulls heat away from the body.
Complete with a knit-in cotton crotch, they can be worn with or without underwear.
The shorts have racked up up more than 11,000 five-star ratings online.

One reviewer wrote: “I’m a teacher and wanted something that was comfy, cooling and prevented chafe.
I wear a lot of dresses and am up and down from the floor a lot, these keep me cool, comfy and covered.”
Another added: “These shorts are an absolutely must-have in your wardrobe, I could not wear a dress without them.
They are comfortable beyond belief and they stay put with no rolling, I’ll definitely be buying more!”
The heatwave-friendly fashion essential is designed for everyday use, but it would also make a great wardrobe addition for special occasions such as weddings.
As the shorts don’t have the same compression as traditional shapewear, they’re far lighter to wear in the heat.

Marks & Spencer also released a shaping bodysuit that hides back rolls, and the £12 one-piece is selling fast.
