Best big knickers for women: Bridget Jones-inspired underwear for comfort and style

While there are occasions for “genuinely tiny knickers”, Bridget Jones fans know that the comfiest kind is the enormous kind.

Full briefs are the antithesis of thongs and tangas, offering ample coverage where it counts and, in turn, taking comfort levels to new heights. Big pants feel cosy, non-threatening, relaxed. There’s no feeling flossed in the nethers, no icy breezes on goosepumped cheeks. They are the underwear equivalent of a rollercoaster’s steel safety harness or a sherpa-lined weighted blanket. Safe. Secure.
