LASER-CUT PANTY
A style with edges cut with a laser to avoid the bulk of stitching and elastic for a completely smooth look. The least lines possible today! |
LONG-LEG PANTY OR PANT LINER
Longer leg styles create a smooth line from waist to knee (or even ankle!), offering the look of an all-over tight, toned body in a jiffy. Instant gratification! |
LOW-RISE/ HIPSTER/HIPHUGGER
Perfect under low-rise clothing, this style sits at or below the hips. Any type of panty can technically have a low rise, but if a style is simply called “low rise,” it usually refers to a hipster/boyshort style. |
LYOCELL
What it is:A natural fabric made from vegetable matter or wood pulp, it is best known by its brand name Tencel.The lingerie connection: Soft, fluid and lightweight, lyocell is all about great drape. This low maintenance fabric is easy to care for, strong and moisture-wicking to keep you cool and dry, making it perfect for lingerie, from slips and camis to panties—and plenty more! |
