What’s Your Favorite Brand & Style? Part 2
As we said in Part 1 of this blog topic, with the overwhelming number of places to shop either in person or on line, it can be hard to decide what styles look best, are comfortable and fit the needs of the outfit you’re planning to wear. No matter what type of photoshoot you are doing, wearing the right bra and panties is important. As we already discussed, making sure you have a bra that fits correctly is key; but wearing the right panties for the occasion is just as important. Minimizing lines, bulges or discomfort is something to keep in mind every day!
The three most common colors you want to have no matter what style you choose are black, white and nude. Colors or patterns for a particular look are fine, the more ornate styles can really add something special to your image, just make sure they fit properly. If your panties are too snug you will end up with bulges and bumps that are not flattering! So let’s talk about the four most commonly worn styles so you can decide what works best for you.
The High Waist panty: offers full coverage in both front and back all the way up to your belly button or higher. This look creates a stunning hourglass figure which is especially great for vintage images. Another option to consider for a vintage look is tap pants.
The Cheeky Boy Short panty: also gives wide coverage front and back, but usually shows a bit more cheek in the back and does not come all the way up to the belly button. These are my favorite style on most women. I would suggest the stretch lace ones without an elastic waist band. The elastic band has a tendency to dig in and create a bulge.
The Thong/G-String panty: offers less coverage in front and is very thin or just a string in back. This look is not the most flattering choice for most women on its own but can be flattering when worn with a Chemise or nighty that covers the upper portion of your bottom, when going for an implied nude or when no panty lines are key to your look.
The Low-rise Bikini panty: offers coverage front and back. A drawback for this style is that it can give even the fittest of women the look of a muffin-top or bulge at the top of the panty. I would suggest if the bikini is your choice, look for the mid-rise or high cut styles.
