Brazilian figs

Fabrics and comfort

As a result these knickers do not show through as strongly as full briefs, but give you more fabric and more of a covered feeling than thongs.

This is the most versatile everyday choice for anyone who does not want to wear thongs and finds classic briefs too covering. They sit well under jeans, because the narrow side does not create a fold under the waistband. Do check the rise though: Brazilian briefs are often low and can roll down with high-waisted trousers.

In the collection you will find cotton, lace, microfibre and seamless versions. Lace Brazilian briefs often have stretch edges with no elastic binding - they are the least visible under clothes, but they need gentler washing.

Choose your size by the hip measurement taken at the widest point. Wash at 30°C in a laundry bag, dry flat, avoid fabric softeners. Dispatch in 1-2 working days, orders over PLN 199 ship free, 60 days to return.

When choosing, pay attention to the width of the sides. Narrower sides are more decorative, wider ones do not cut into the skin and stay in place better through the day. The second element is the edge finish: a laser cut does not show at all, elastic bound with lace is nicer against the skin, and a classic seam is the most durable.

Match the fabric to the occasion - microfibre disappears under tight trousers, cotton with elastane is breathable for everyday wear, lace works as part of a set. The collection is dominated by Sielei, Julimex and Lormar styles.

If you are ordering several pairs, it is worth splitting the fabrics by occasion: cotton for everyday, microfibre under close-fitting trousers, lace to match a set. A set like that covers most needs and saves you buying more pairs of the same type.

Which style to choose

Brazilian briefs are the style in between knickers and thongs: at the front they resemble classic briefs or bikini briefs, while at the back they leave part of the bottom exposed, keeping full sides. That gives a less visible line under close-fitting clothes than full briefs, while being more comfortable and more stable than thongs.

How to find your size

If you want to compare styles, go to the combined knickers collection or to thongs. Choose your size by the hip measurement taken at the widest point - your trouser size does not always match your lingerie size.
