The Best (and Sexiest) Underwear For Every Occasion

Best Everyday Thongs

You can thank Hanky Panky for normalizing thongs back in the early 2000s. Their original high rise styles are super comfortable yet sexy, making them ideal for daily wear. 

Best of Basic

If you’re looking for a no-frills undergarment, look to Everlane. Their lightweight line has you (and your booty) covered. 

Best G-String

G-strings are known for being unbearable, but I love Cosabella’s thongs. They are the ultimate antidote to VPL. The straps stay put, and they don’t dig in to your waist. 

Best Organic Cotton

For the most breathable option, always reach for 100% cotton, and no one does it better than Skin. Their super soft offerings feel barely there. 

Best Seamless Underwear

This underwear used by legit fashion stylists, so you know it’s going to be good. It’s the next best thing to going Commando, hence the brand’s name. Seriously, you might have a midday anxiety attack, because these trick you into thinking you forgot to wear underwear to work. 

Most Comfy Hipsters 

Calvin Klein makes the best underwear for lounging in your house pants-less. Bonus points if you wear it with your coziest sweater and fuzzy slippers. 

Best Workout Pair

For working out, you need an underwear that hugs your body, breathes, and never gives you a wedgie. Gap’s hipsters do just that. 

Best Shapers

Shaping underwear can be tricky. You want it to hug you in, but you also need to move. Yummie struck the right balance with this Ultralight pair. 

Most Affordable Lingerie 

Lingerie can get pricy, especially when you don’t tend to wear it more than once (or twice). Our favorite affordable brand is & Other Stories, which makes the cutest underwear that looks way more expensive than it actually is. 

The Sexy Splurge 

Agent Provocateur has a well-deserved reputation as the sexiest but most expensive lingerie. IMO, their unparalleled undies are worth it.
