#TipTuesday – Panty Shopping… A quick guide for gifting
Don’t hesitate to gift something sexy this year because you’re confused about style and fit… Follow this quick guide and you can’t go wrong!
There are so many styles of panties to choose from for women (and men too!). Who knew that a simple garment like a panty can be created in so many ways? Thankfully, panties have evolved from their earliest beginnings to become way more fashionable, allowing for a spectrum of styles to suit any booty shape and desired coverage.
And, when it comes to something that sits as close to the skin as a panty, then natural fiber fabrics are really the best choice. Cotton is one example of natural fabric, and it’s great for day-to-day use. But a more luxurious option and one that makes an oh-so-special gift is, of course, silk! A silk panty is an amazing way to make someone feel “gifted”. No need to freak out about the care either, a simple handwashing is all that is needed to keep them fresh.
Selecting the right size is as easy as finding out if they wear a small, medium, or large in bottoms and matching it. We also have a handy size chart that relates hip size in inches to standard sizes (small, medium, etc.). Finally, don’t let the names confuse you… check out our style descriptions below and you too can speak “panty”!
Boy Short – This is the sassy sister of the boy’s brief! It rides lower on the leg and has full side hip coverage. The waist is lower than a high-waist brief (think granny panties) and offers more front coverage than a bikini.
Hipster – This style sits on the hips and offers coverage for the backside with a waistline that is lower than a brief and higher than a bikini. The hipster offers a higher leg opening for smoother coverage under clothes than the boy short.
Bikini – The sexy sister of the hipster, our bikini naturally fits a woman’s bikini line. It has very high leg openings and a low waistband. The back has moderate coverage but not as much as a hipster.
Tanga – A European-style cut panty that has less coverage than a bikini but more than a thong. Usually shaped the same in the front and the back, the tanga shows off all of the hip.
Thong – This style is not shy in revealing the backside! Considered very sexy, a thong varies in frontal coverage to full or minimal with little to no back coverage so there are no panty lines to be had. Usually sits low on the hips.
Flutter Panty – This style combines a tap pant and panty with a roomy leg and a cheeky flare to the back and side leg. Feels feather-light and unlike other more-constricting underwear styles.
Silk panties make a great gift and now that you know about all the different styles available and how easy it is to choose a size then the only thing left to do is go and shop!
