Freebily Women Minimal Cover Self-tie Mini Micro Bikini Set Off the Shoulder Bra Top with G-String Swimwear

Product Information

Style: There's a variety of different types of underwear for women. Here are the most common options:

Cotton: Soft, breathable and absorbent, cotton is a great option for those with sensitive skin. While most underwear today is made with synthetic materials, you might find that they have cotton gussets for comfort.She did, however, find the material to be a little stiff. They're not super stretchy or soft, but we guess that's excusable since they're not exactly designed for all-day comfort but more of a short-wear show. Featuring a waterproof layer for leak protection, you can be assured that these will keep you protected and dry. When it comes to their liquid retention, they can hold the equivalent of three regular tampons due to their internal padding which extends further than a regular sanitary towel. Although highly absorbent the gusset is still 100% cotton, which makes them very comfortable and breathable at a time when you might be more sensitive. This underwear has a high leg and a cheeky cut, and the fabric is both notably soft and comfortably snug. The panties come in an inclusive size range (2XS to 3XL), although the brand suggests washing them a few times before use to properly adjust the fit to your body. This pair is definitely on the pricier end, although they’re designed to replace pads and tampons, which could save you money down the line. What We Love: This thong is made from cotton, but according to reviewers, it’s not bulky and lays flat. Keep in mind that a loose thong may bunch and lead to an uncomfortable fit, and bunched fabric may be visible under your clothing. On the other hand, thongs that are too tight can feel restricting and lead to chafing, which is equally uncomfortable.

Our sheer, unlined thongs are one of our most stylish options as they are made of silky, durable fabrics that emulate lace patterns. We love this style because of its breezy feeling and detail. No panty lines here. The three most common cuts are full brief, Brazilian and thong. All of these cuts are widely available in high, low or mid-rise styles. While thongs made from specialty fabrics are good for date night, they may not be the best option for daily wear. Thongs intended for daily wear should be made from breathable, comfortable materials. If that means cotton to you, then go for it. If it means modal or a stretchy lace, that’s fine too.The Comfort Stretch Thong by ThirdLove is all about, well, comfort and an expansive size range of XS to 3X so every thong-wearer can have an inclusive shopping experience. The nylon-spandex construction offers a second-skin look and feel, so there’s no VPL, and they’re comfy enough for daily use. The even better news is that the plus sizes aren’t limited to the basic colors; bright limited edition colors like Cherise, bluejay, and lavender are also available up to 3X.

An elevated version of the basic brief, this style from Natori features delicate lace trim and a lower waistline for a more feminine flair. Testers gave this pair perfect scores for comfort, highlighting the "buttery soft" and lightweight feel of the material, with one tester raving that she "honestly forgot that they were even there" when wearing them. While testers were skeptical that the lace would feel uncomfy or dig in, they were pleasantly surprised by the smooth and stretchy feel. According to Freno, “As long as your thong is laundered properly and fits well, they are perfectly safe and hygienic to wear.” That said, it’s also important to wear these items judiciously — keeping things sanitary may include changing them out once or twice a day to prevent the spread of bacteria. What We Don't Love: The waistband is a little wider, making this not as minimalist as other options.Tracy Freno, customer service manager at lingerie destination Bare Necessities, agrees saying, “Despite what some people may think, thongs are actually very comfortable and are a great undergarment to wear to prevent panty lines under clothing. Most thongs are designed with super soft fabrics like lace or cotton, which are lightweight and gentle on the skin. The right thong panty has the ability to make the wearer forget they are wearing any underwear at all!” While VPL (visible panty line) isn’t the worst fashion faux pas of all time, it can be quite annoying to deal with when putting together an outfit. In fact, that's what makes seamless underwear such a handy thing to have in your closet—they make it look like you're not wearing undies at all, without sacrificing comfort. Either way, no matter if you like to wear super fitted styles or hyper- compressed leggings during your HIIT sesh, a seamless pair of panties can really be your outfit’s saving grace. Considering this underwear is designed to function like shapewear, you might want to opt for a larger size than usual if you prefer more stretch and comfort.

Woxers are boxer-brief-style underwear that are designed to fit a woman's body better than boxer briefs made exclusively for men. The medium-rise underwear has a more streamlined fit with no fly opening and a secure waistband that, according to testers, doesn't pinch, dig in or roll down. Testers said the underwear stretched nicely over their curves and stayed in place all day long, but they did find the leg openings to feel a bit snug.

It is not necessary to size up when wearing a thong – in fact, it’s not a great idea at all,” says Freno. “Not only will it not make the garment fit better, but it will also cause it to bunch up in other areas, and no one wants that!” Freno warns that while a tight fit isn’t good, a loose fit isn’t any better as it may “cause the garment to shift uncomfortably and cause chafing while wearing.’ Wearing a thong that fits perfectly and provides you with the comfort you deserve will leave you feeling empowered and give you the confidence to take charge of your day,” says Freno. “[For that reason], sizing is important to think about when buying thongs. [Ultimately], if the panty is too small, it will create an unattractive look and uncomfortable feel.”
