Your Guide to Underwear Coverage
When it comes to the coverage of our underwear, we’ve all got our opinions on the perfect formula. With a myriad of styles available, from classic briefs, tiny thongs to Bridget Jones-esque bloomers, working out the best coverage for you can be the key to finding your perfect pair. When it comes down to it, understanding the right amount of underwear coverage for you means striking the balance between comfort, functionality and personal style.
First things first, the rise
Underwear coverage can vary in terms of the rise, with low-rise styles sitting below the natural waistline, mid-rise hitting at the hips, and high-rise extending above the waist. Your ideal rise may depend on factors such as what’s in your closet. We believe our High Rise Briefs paired with high waisted jeans, for example, are a match made in heaven. Because we’d rather have our cloud-soft fabric caressing our tummies than stiff denim! The choice of your underwear fabric should not be underestimated, as it plays a crucial role in determining their overall feel and the level of comfort they provide.
The shape
Briefs come in all shapes and sizes, with each shape providing a different level of coverage. We’ve broken down our briefs into three categories to point you in the right direction. With our Minimum Coverage collection including Thongs and High Waisted Thongs, our Medium Coverage collection featuring our Original Briefs and our Maximum Coverage collection including High Rise Briefs, Hipsters and Unisex Boxers.
Minimum Coverage
On the lower end of our coverage spectrum we have our Thongs. A great choice for eliminating unsightly lines, the thong is your go-to for wearing beneath tight-fitting clothing. With the option to go High-Waisted, our Minimum Coverage collection has you covered whatever your rise preference.
Medium Coverage
The happy medium in terms of coverage, our Original Brief is the go-to everyday brief for so many women. The perfect cut for full coverage across the back with no riding up and a feminine low-rise at the front. Finished with our signature lace trim detailing.
Maximum Coverage
We’ve reached the larger end of our coverage spectrum, where extra fabric provides extra comfort. For the fullest coverage, we recommend opting for our High Rise. Sitting at the waist-line for that extra bit of support and coverage across the tummy. For additional leg coverage, the Hipster or Unisex Boxer could be the ones for you.
