THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF BRIEFS, THONGS OR PANTIES – WHAT SUITS YOU? AND What types of are there?
Each pant has a different shape and thus fulfills different functions.Tight-fitting and tight underpants that do not have a leg. Also popularly known as panties and derived from the English verb to slip, the slip is probably one of the most famous slip forms worldwide. The term panties was only given to the underpants at the beginning of the 20th century, when the elastic was invented and materials such as elastane revolutionized underwear. Because they were easy to put on, the previous underpants, which were held in place with buttons, bows and ribbons, were renamed briefs and knickers.
Slips come in different shapes, which can be very different and serve different purposes. Popular panties are the Brazilian panties and the slightly less revealing Rio panties, which accentuate the legs with their cut shapes. If you like it a little closer, you can also wear a mini slip. A maxi slip, on the other hand, is slightly higher than a model with a normal cut.

MINI STRING
A mini string is characterized by the very thin fabric ribbons and side cuffs. A mini thong is usually V-shaped at the front and T-shaped at the back. The sides are connected with very thin strips of fabric.Extra tip: Skin-colored mini thongs are invisible under tight-fitting clothing. Make sure that the waistband does not cut into the skin (then you are wearing a size that is too small.

Strings are good to wear under tight clothing. Make sure the waistband doesn’t cut into the skin. Extra tip: Strings are good to wear under tight clothing. Be careful not to let the collar cut into the skin.
A string is the name given to those panties that cover the pubic area with a small triangle of fabric and leave the bottom uncovered. Only a small band or triangle of fabric runs between the buttocks. The term string comes from English and means something like string or cord. The cheeky little eye-catchers are available in various designs and can be worn by women and men alike.
STRING SKIRT
A string skirt is a normal string that is covered with a short, attached skirt. Extra tip: String skirts should not be worn under trousers, but rather under skirts and dresses, as they could otherwise show under the clothing. Shorty
The diminutive form of shorts originally comes from the field of sports fashion. Initially made of cotton and with a drawstring, short, tight-fitting shorts with an elastic band later became popular. As tight-fitting lingerie, a shorty is ideal under figure-hugging clothing. The shorty has angled, but otherwise relatively straight leg cutouts on the inside, the lines of which meet directly at the buttock fold. In contrast to tight-fitting, shorter shorties, loosely fitting, half-length shorties are also known as French knickers. These are often found in the nightwear sector in the form of short pajamas.
STRING PANTY
With a string panty / string boxer, the cut is a combination of string and panty, hence the wider side cuffs. Extra tip: Make sure the seams on the bottom don’t cut into the skin.
T-string
The T-String or T-Back is a “relative” of the G-String or V-String, but without a fabric triangle on the back. The triangle at the front, which covers the genital area, is connected directly to the hip cord with a cord through the legs. These two strings form the eponymous T. The bottom remains uncovered with a T-string.
V-string
The V-String consists of a fabric-free triangle in the rump area. This seductive textile is held on the hips by means of thin cords and conceals the pubic region tightly and discreetly with another opaque, triangular piece of fabric. In addition, the V-string is often referred to as a microstring.
C-string
Probably the tightest underwear is the C-string, which hardly suggests a laundry item in the traditional sense, as it only covers the bare essentials. A tiny triangle of fabric covers the genital area and a fabric-covered wire runs through the buttocks. There is no such thing as a waistband or even a ribbon that holds this construction on the hips.
G-string
What is a G-String? These are the tightest panties that only cover the pubic. The G-String is a kind of thong, which consists of a fabric triangle for the lap and two strings. One of them runs around the hips, the other between the buttocks. The rear triangle is completely omitted, so that the entire bottom is displayed without textiles
TANGA
A thong is a slip with extra narrow side cuffs and a low rise. A thong is a great alternative to a string because of the extra narrow side cuffs. The thong shape is similar to that of the thong. The only difference is that the rear triangle of fabric seems to be pulled up very far. A thong is a pair of underpants that consist of two equal-sized (but the ratio can also differ) fabric triangles, which are held together by means of a thin waistband or ribbon (2-3cm wide) and make the legs appear longer. The cheeky little panties completely cover the genital area and approx. 50% of the bottom. The thong is mainly worn by women; the typical feminine cut of the underwear was taken over from the famous brazilian bikinis.
BIKINI BRIEFS
A bikini brief has wider side cuffs than a thong and is characterized by the low rise (approx. 4 finger widths below the navel). The bikini slip is the classic slip shape and belongs in every wardrobe – when choosing the size, make sure that the waistband does not cut into the skin.

Boxer shorts are good to wear under fashionable baggy jeans, but not suitable for tight-fitting trousers. They are also comfortable to wear while sleeping.
A boxer thong is a clever mix between a panty and a thong. Cut like a panty, the boxer thong has low cuffs and short, straight ankles.
