Women's Briefs

Women's briefs are the full cut fashion panties that cover everything from the waist down. They are designed to fully cover the buttocks and front of the tummy. Most sizes and designs are partial or full control top and are the new girdles, in effect.

The full cut women's control briefs have a panel in the front to hold in the tummy and tight stitching on the sides to control the hips. The newer styles can even have padded backs because the fashion of having a big bum is in right now – or yours might just need a little enhancement…. Women's fashion changes constantly and briefs have to keep up.

The classic brief is wide enough so that women can wear any fashion without the worrisome panty line threatening to show through trousers or skirt. The ribbing on the sides and the elastic at the legs and waist are thin and flat, to keep panty lines at a minimum. They are the perfect women's briefs for clingy clothes and elegant women's fashion. High cut briefs have a straight waistband but are cut to ride high on the thigh. These are for the higher cut evening dresses and are very comfortable. High cut briefs can be padded in the back or have panels on the sides for hip flab control but do not usually have panels in the front for tummy control. Beware too tight briefs of any style or the elastics will pull and make the dreaded VPL – Visible Panty Line!

"Boy Shorts" are a new fashion in women's briefs and are very cute. Cut so that they ride low on the tummy and look like short shorts on the leg, these are the newest in style for the younger women's fashions and athletic women. They provide no support whatsoever because there is nothing to them, but athletic women like them because they do not ride up. Plus, for ladies with larger legs, they can eliminate a lot of chafing between the legs in the hot summer months.

Panties have been around for a long time, and women love to get lingerie as a gift, so if you are at a loss as to what to get her for a special occasion, panties can make an unexpected thoughtful gift. Choose something the right size, and not a million miles from what you find in her panty drawer! The aim is to please, not embarrass…
