Last week I attended a black-tie event with a friend. She came to the hotel where I was staying beforehand so we could do our hair and makeup together. When I put on my dress, I mentioned I needed to change my underwear so I didn’t have a visible panty line.
She shrugged and replied that she was wearing her partner’s briefs (something she does often) because they’re so comfortable. She said his seamless shorts are the best under silk dresses because they don’t leave lines and make her feel held in. The exchange had me wondering if, like with pockets, women were being shortchanged in underwear design.
