BRIEFS
Briefs or also known as ‘granny panties’, are designed to provide full coverage of your private area along with a high waistband. It surely does not bring in the sexy vibe in general, but it’s okay because comfort matters the most!

BIKINI
Usually, bikini panties lie in between a thong and a brief, as it provides you with just the right amount of coverage needed. It’s typically slim on the edges and is accompanied with a high-cut leg line and a waistband that rests on the hips.

without trying so hard.
BOYSHORTS
Similar to men’s briefs, boyshorts have a more rectangular cut as compared to most undergarments. It has a feature of a thong-style base, yet with frames that are enough to provide your bottom with full coverage.
Best time to wear: These underpants would be great when you’re wearing skirts or dresses. Plus, it would be less mortifying if you experienced a Marilyn Monroe moment as it would look just like shorts.
THONGS / G-STRINGS
Every woman should own at least one of these, even though it might not be the most comfortable to wear. Basically, it’s similar to a bikini cut with a high-cut leg and a thin strip of material behind.
Best time to wear: If you’re rocking a bodycon dress or a fitted skirt or pants, then you should definitely consider thongs. You wouldn’t want to have a visible panty line especially when you’re rocking a bodycon dress.
