Finding stylish and practical clothing after a urostomy can be a bit of a challenge, especially when you want to feel comfortable and confident in your everyday outfits. The main concerns are finding clothes that support the weight of a rapidly filling urostomy pouch without causing visible bulging, allowing for an unrestricted flow to avoid infections, and choosing attractive clothing that doesn't look too "medical" for work and social occasions. Here are some helpful tips and insights:

1. Supportive Underwear
- High-waisted, firm-support panties, like those from the Elita brand in Canada, can help hold the bag close to your body and reduce sloshing.
- In the UK, prescription garments such as Comfizz support boxers and long support vests offer strong vertical support, with short legs to minimize thigh elastic tugging.
- Shapewear, like Spanx, can provide extra support under dresses and skirts.

2. Choosing Trousers and Jeans
- Opt for styles with a natural or higher waist. Brands like "Not Your Daughter’s Jeans" (NYDJ) and some options from Reitmans or Very.co.uk offer high-waist stretch jeans that keep the waistband above the stoma.
- Maternity trousers are recommended by some for their soft, expandable fronts.
- Custom solutions are also an option. One person sews loose-cut linen or needlecord trousers with extra tummy room and a high elastic waist and is willing to make pairs for others at cost.

3. Skirts, Dresses, and Leggings
- Pair leggings with a long top or short dress to hide the pouch while allowing it to stretch as it fills.
- Skirts and dresses can be comfortable if the underwear or shapewear underneath provides enough support.

4. Day-to-Day Management Tips
- Empty the pouch frequently; most people won't notice minor bulges.
- Tight but stretchy garments, like well-fitting high-waisted pants, can help keep the pouch stable, though achieving complete "freedom" can be challenging with fast-filling urostomy bags.
