The body bulge controlling portion of the panty hose has elastic yarn incorporated therein to provide a medium amount of compressive force against the body of the wearer and is positioned between portions of the panty hose having a relatively great amount of compressive force and a relatively small amount of compressive force. The compressive force against the body is thereby varied in a stepped or gradual manner so as to eliminate or minimize the abrupt outward bulging of the underlying portion of the body of the wearer. In one embodiment of the panty hose, the body bulge controlling portion is positioned between a panty girdle portion with a great amount of compressive force and the sheer legs which include very little if any compressive force. In another embodiment, the bulge controlling portion is positioned between the elastic waistband and the upper portion of the panty of the panty hose.

In a panty hose type garment including certain portions with elastic yarn in an amount sufficient to provide a relatively great amount of compressive force against the underlying portion of the body of the wearer, and other portions normally joined directly to said certain portions and being knit solely of stretchable yarn to provide a relatively small amount of compressive force against the underlying portion of the body of the wearer, the combination therewith of a body bulge controlling intermediate portion positioned between and interconnecting said certain and said other portions, said intermediate portion being knit of stretchable yarn with elastic yarn incorporated in spaced-apart courses and providing a lesser amount of elastic yarn in said intermediate portion than the amount of elastic yarn provided in said certain portions to provide a medium amount of compressive force against the portion of the body of the wearer underlying said intermediate portion, said successive great, medium, and small amounts of compressive forces applied by said corresponding certain, intermediate, and other portions of said garment thereby applying a gradually varying amount of compressive force against the underlying portion of the body to prevent an abrupt outward bulging of the corresponding portion of the body of the wearer.
