We’ve all been there; stepping out feeling confident and fabulous, only to catch a glimpse in the mirror and realize those dreaded panty lines have been on display the whole time. The worst part? You can’t even rush to the restroom to fix it because, well, a bad underwear is a bad underwear.
It’s almost the end 2025, and as we’re stepping into the new year we are prioritizing comfort, style and everything that brings out the confidence in us. That means saying goodbye to too-tight, rim-showing, neon panties that scream discomfort. Underwear isn’t just another clothing item, it’s your hidden confidence booster. The right pair should be soft on the skin, feel good, and breathe easy.
Below, we’ve rounded up the ultimate list of comfy underpants that every girl needs, to keep you confident and going about your day with no worries.
Each style has its unique features, designed to cater to different preferences and occasions.
Whether you’re looking for daily comfort, a seamless look under a tight dress, or a special occasion piece, we’ve got you covered (quite literally).
Seamless Briefs
Our all-time favourite, seamless briefs. They are exactly as the name suggests, seamless!
These are not just underwear without the itchy seams, they are real comfort and a girl’s best friend.
These beauties are designed with smooth edges and minimal seams, making them ideal for wearing under tight or lightweight fabrics. They come in a variety of rises from low to high providing lots of front and back coverage.
Seamless briefs are usually made from stretch-friendly fabrics like nylon, spandex, microfiber, modal, or bamboo, giving you a barely-there feel with full coverage. They sit softly against the skin and disappear under body-hugging outfits, making them perfect for fitted trousers, dresses, or gym wear.
In short, they deliver what we all crave: comfort, breathability, and invisibility.
Hipsters
Onto our next favourite — drumroll… Hipsters! You want something breathable but sexy, modern, and comfortable that fits perfectly with low-rise jeans? These are a must-have. Hipsters come in low to mid-rise, covering the hips and lower abdomen. They offer medium coverage on the backside while keeping your lower belly and navel free. The waistband hits near the hipbone, while the leg openings are cut high on the thighs, leaving a wide band of fabric that tends to stay put. Compared to briefs, hipsters sit lower on your hips with less upper abdomen coverage for low-rise jeans or skirts.
Boyshorts
Don’t sleep on boyshorts, they might just be your secret weapon against panty lines. Their longer cut and smooth edges make them perfect for tight jeans, short skirts, or bodycon dresses. This is because they come in a high coverage style, with most boyshorts ending right under the curve of the bum. Since they sit just below the curve of your bum, they prevent that awkward cheek line that often shows through.
Many boyshorts now come in seamless styles, lace hems, or sheer fabrics, which make them even more invisible under clothes. Plus, their fuller coverage means no wedgies, no pinching, and no adjusting every five minutes.
Inspired by men’s boxers but tailored for women, boyshorts give off that cool, sporty vibe with a feminine twist.
At the end of the day, underwear should work for you, not against you. It’s the foundation of how you feel in your clothes and in your own skin. So, invest in pieces that combine comfort, coverage, and confidence. Because when you feel good underneath, it shows on the outside too.
