Hourglass : Yes I keep pulling down my underwear at the back throughout the day. I didn't realise it was an issue with the underwear. I thought other women were just comfortable with the underwear riding up like that and I wasn't. 🤷‍♀️

Me too. Also always hits in the wrong place as far as waist/hips

[@shemica16]

Same. I am happy I discovered panties that cover more butt on the sides 10 years ago (now I know they are called hipsters), but sadly it's still hard to find a cute two piece swimsuit that fits my bum. Once I find a cute one, I have to be torn between wanting a cute swimsuit and knowing I'll have to constantly fix my butt, or giving up on the cute one to find one that is more comfortable... And sometimes more expensive...

[@mirabellegoldapfel6256]

I found the perfect kind a few years ago and never bought another kind (sewn some though). Let's just forget the word granny panties and call it vintage, as the rest of the fashion world does. Nothing wrong with a bit more fabric around the behind, look how much the guys wear! There is a reason every girl I know buys mens boxers as sleep shorts. Also cotton wins the material wars, the invisible stuff is so weirdly floppy and plasticky and if I want lace I get a pretty bra or undershirt.

[@oriole9815]

[@Chaotic_Pixie]

I agree with all of this! If I don’t want VPL, I go with my skin tone boy shorts which are my perfect cut as a plus sized apple with an ample backside. But honestly, everyone can rock classic brief cut and if it’s being attractive to others you’re concerned about… many men and women I’ve asked actually think being “comfy cute” is the sexiest look of all. The… girl next door look if you will.

[@DarkandStormyNight01]

@@Chaotic_Pixie Not me! Granny panties look just like the name implies on me. And because I'm very short hipped, they come up over my navel. When I did wear them, I always had to fold them down for both comfort and so they didn't stick up above my jeans... OR skirt. Nothing made me feel frumpier or more uncomfortable than a full brief.

[@kilodeltawhisky1504]

Love my "vintage" panties. They stay put. I'm an apple shape. High cut legs end up in my crack. I hate that. Low rise fall off...hate that. VPL... I don't care. I'm comfortable. Panties show above the front waistband, either push them down, pull a shirt over, or wear high waisted britches. As for lingerie, never met a man who like the underwear on, more than off.

Curvy hour glass here. I struggled for years wearing bikini cuts but worked out over time that fuller briefs just worked better. However, I felt sad because I thought that if I was slimmer, bikini cuts would work. After watching your video this afternoon, I now don't feel embarrassed about needing to wear fuller underwear... and thanks for the tips about lace! You actually have significantly changed my life. Thankyou ❤️

Thanks, Kate! Glad it was helpful!

[@amykolterman3744]

Same here, I prefer French cut because I feel like picking at the bottoms when ever I wear the fuller briefs. Never, ever will I buy butt floss. I'd be picking at my butt all day and I have a flat butt.

[@JadeStone00]

I have a booty as well as a muffin top, and I absolutely love something called "ladyboxers" (Culprit makes some great lightweight ones). They are basically boxer briefs for curvy bodies. Great for my long rise, plenty of coverage in the back, and no VPL because the "legs" of the underwear end below the seat of my jeans. I especially love to wear them with shorter dresses because I don't have to worry about flashing my "kit and caboodle" to the whole world by accident. 😂

[@x-starlight-x]

I have the typical hourglass measurements, 34-24-34, I'm quite petite, I don't have boobs or bum 😂 but I'm curvy, a small waist and big hips, so finding bottoms and of course knickers can be so annoying. I definitely agree with you, from a young age I have always favoured big knickers, I try to get 'pretty' ones or ones that don't give a vpl, I also find the odd style which is a cross between a Brazilian and a full brief which are perfect. But nothing beats a pair of big knickers 😊

[@alicenlp5230]

i used to wear hipsters as an hourglass but I found thongs to be more comfortable because they don't ride up. And i just pull them a bit higher so they are a bit high rise. I almost never have to pull up my underwear that way and it also makes me feel a bit sexy and daring (cuz i never am usually lolll)

[@sophie1766]

For hourglass & pear: Hipsters, boyshorts and the like don't work at all, as they don't cover the lower part of the bum. They creep up because there's too much fabric at the wrong place (the sides) and nothing to hold it in place... I discovered that what works best is a medium rise bikini/brief cut, with the leg openings set a bit more to the front, leaving more fabric at the back. :)

[@k8chillx]

I'm the same and I hate briefs because I have shorter torso but bikini works for me as long as the leg openings are wide enough

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you for sharing, Sophie!

[@symphonyl.6588]

Hi! Can you recommend some brands who does this? Thanks a lot!

[@k8chillx]

@@symphonyl.6588 Not sure if you were asking me. I'm kinda pear/hourglass like Sophie described hers but also petite like 5'0." My butt volume (lol) is more towards the bottom if that makes sense. Target carries Auden brand. The seamless (thicker hem not like the laser cut) bikini or even some cheeky or the ones with lace trim fit well without my crack eating them up lol. The laser cut tho, does not work. I also can't wear boy shorts/boxer briefs. Having full thighs they ride up and sausage- cased my thigh or ride all the way up in the butt crack lol so if this sounds similar to you then what works for me might work for you too. I agree with Chi that briefs stay in place better but I really don't like how they look on me since I'm short and with short torso (and a lot of time their leg opening is small)

[@thornappletea]

Eh, I'm an hourglass and I find they are one of the most comfortable for me...I have a v short waist and those hip dips and hipster things with the waistband sitting in the dips give me the best fit as they are filling them out a bit, but without rolling/crunching down into them. Yet another body shape variation - most advice given for "hourglass shapes" is uncomfortable and useless to me because of my actual proportions aside from horizontal measurements.

[@TheHighPriestess9752]

I followed this advice and went shopping for a couple high legged cut panties, tried them on for a couple of days and went running back to the store to get some more. It’s being a game changer. I am glad to say that I will be cutting my allegiance from all the boyshorts and cheekys and other mess that I have buying all these years

The Natori French Cut briefs are excellent for this!

[@neuralmute]

Me too - I'm a short pear with frequent weight fluctuations due to health issues, and high leg cut briefs are THE best undies I've found yet. Thanks so much for the tip!

[@DelightfullyGrace]

As a pear shape, genuinely the best thing I’ve found is high waisted, high leg underwear with silicone around the edge (found mine at Soma). Since it’s high waisted/high leg, it doesn’t restrict the sides of my hips and make them look flat. The silicone keeps them from riding up and hides the lines, so you don’t really notice them under my jeans/leggings. 10/10, would recommend.

[@PetiteDressing]

Thanks for sharing, Caroline!

[@micheller3251]

Inverted triangle: I only buy bikini and I've always wondered why people say high rise is more comfortable. To me it was, like you said, too much fabric that folds and moves around. Thanks to this explanation it is much more clear that high rise is just not for me!

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad it was helpful, Michelle!

[@Ballaurena13]

I'm glad to hear that they actually do work for someone. I just always took them for either a cheep cut that they tried to trick people into buying or else a sexualized cut that some women wore despite the intense discomfort because they figured beauty required pain.

[@catsgoolore]

I dont know how Google knew my underwear was riding up constantly, but this is a lifesaver. Bless you and this knowledge

I have the hourglass figure, and my underwear is always riding up. I finally in the last couple years have started being able to identify what underwear works best for me, and you nailed it! It’s the high-waisted lacy stuff with really thick tops but cut high in the leg. I can’t say I know if you’re right for other body types, but you nailed it for me

Hourglass here, I advocate for thongs with a couple of centimetres of fabric sitting above the butt. They don't ride up your butt like underwear with more coverage and if they are the right size they are very comfortable. I wear a thong whenever I wear pants or any kind of tight clothing. To sleep or for flowy fabrics I wear hipster briefs with close to full coverage and lower down leg openings

I had a very different experience with thongs (pear shape here).

Hourglass and plus size here, and I agree! I'm so much more comfortable since I started wearing girl boxer briefs. Boxers for women nowadays come in great colours, can be bright and graphic, and when you wear them they look like cute mini shorts and I find the style is not just comfortable, but also flattering. I also find that a good elastic waistband makes a big difference to underwear, especially with boxers.

[@HD-ks9pk]

Same, no way would I wear full briefs. I only wear g strings

[@loftgoddess]

Yes! Once I figured this out it changed everything in my underwear drawer! If I buy full-coverage underwear, I can either 1. Buy it big enough to cover my butt and be comfortable around my thighs, but it will sag around my waist. Or 2. Buy it smaller to fit my waist, but the fabric will dig into my thighs or simply not stretch enough to stay full coverage- I end up with a big fat wedgie. Brazilian/Cheeky undies fit my waist without digging into my thighs or bunching up in my butt. Lace edging is the finishing touch for no VPL. Yay!

[@meaganstratton1733]

As a pear, this is also my favorite type. The fabric lays on top of the butt to hold in place and keep from riding down and very little fabric on the bottom to ride up. The legs are free and there isn't flappy butt fabric attempting to cover my large butt that isn't doing anything but bunching. I can wear the right size and don't need to size up to fit the thighs or width of the widest part of my hips so they fit. Also I just don't like really high raised underwear. I don't like restrictions close to my stomach.

[@comkver]

Amen! Thank you, Chi. I knew that bikini, hipster weren't working out for me. I learned that underwear should be upsized and that's not working out either considering the brand that I buy.

Thank you for this informative hilarious presentation. I honestly had no idea about the rises. I’ve always hated wearing underwear, always uncomfortable and now I know why!

[@marybarakat313]

Yes!!! The problems with a constant wedgie! I am a combo hourglass/pear I agree I have been byuing myself a brief style lately and am trying to find the best to eliminate VPL

[@rachelrucker5642]

Low rise brief is the best way to go!!!

[@Lulusnotreadyforthis]

So happy to see this video! I have a naturally high waist and to be comfy I need high waisted underwear. Anything else just creates an awful line and a muffin top.

[@onedoor_]

You're like the older sister that seems to know everything lol I love you for this!❤️❤️

[@curlsavenue1035]

Thank you, my sister from another mother! I hope all the young tweens and especially teens watch this. The sooner they learn this, the better choices they'll make for their body type.

[@PetiteDressing]

You're welcome! I hope so! ❤️

[@jessabeauty917]

Well done, Chi! I learn so much from your channel.

[@PetiteDressing]

Yay! Thank you!

[@rumdo5617]

Thank you for your informative and fun videos.

[@iliyanabozhanina1698]

Your videos about the apple body are amazing. I didn't know I had apple body, but I would naturally have a sense of picking "high-leg briefs" and peplum tops, and wrap dresses. When I watch you videos, I can't agree more! I have made the same mistakes as you for the apple body before that you are describing in your other videos. It's so good to know you body type and what looks good on you. Shopping is way faster this way too.

[@PetiteDressing]

Yes! It's really good to know your body shape and what looks good on you so you're not going to be in struggle when shopping! 😉

[@rouge7603]

Thank you for the advice for my pear shape. I actually feel more comfortable and confident with the styles.

[@PetiteDressing]

Wonderful! You're so welcome!

[@joannemorris4451]

You are right. I don't think I have had any comfortable underwear in a long time. Good advice!

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad it was helpful!

[@DrPsyc71]

I have just watched you for the first time and I am IN LOVE! The dance of sexiness was HILARIOUS, mostly because I totally got it - you need good undies that support, shape, whatever, but you want to feel great too. Your little interlude was just perfect. I will definitely be subbing and watching more of your great humor with a lot of really useful information thrown in!

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you, Casandra! Glad you love it!! ❤️

[@rainrabbit9209]

Love your humor!

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you Rain!

[@fridamonlund]

I adore the dance where you feel yourself in a summerdress and sunglasses! Made the whole video tbh ❤️

[@adriiko]

This was very informative!! It never occurred to me to link my body shape to my underwear. Simple and genius !

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you!

[@GenesisAcevedoDeChacon]

Hi, CHi! Thank you so much. I needed this video.

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad it was helpful!

[@donnakaymiller2532]

One of the most useful videos ever!

[@ritafairclough6470]

Just reviewing all my saved videos and your videos are just as enjoyable if not more to watch. Well done and a lot of work for this quality of information.

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you so so much! ❤️

[@susiezhang3832]

I just recently realized I've been wearing the wrong underwear and am planning to overhaul all of them. This video really helped, thank you.

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad it was helpful!

[@kendraaraiza7039]

Thank you, this was so useful! I'm a pear with a lower belly (never had that until I had kids and hit a certain age 😵‍💫). I am constantly fighting my underwear, they're always creeping up or stretching and falling down. I have literally cut underwear off of my body and thrown them away when I was away from home. Lol! I always have VPL and the muffin top. I have tried sizing up, changing fabric, changing brand. It never occurred to me to try briefs. Thank you so much for this information! ❤️

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad it was helpful, Kendra!

[@sandrasandoval4466]

Thank you for this information. Your sense of humor is so cool. I loved the cute "expressions and eye rolling" while trying to figure out which underwear is good for body shapes. 💖🙏💖

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad you enjoyed it! You're so welcome, Sandra!✨💖

[@sunshineysideoflife]

Chi, I am so glad I came across your channel. Thank you for the great advice and the amazing, easy-to-watch videos.

[@PetiteDressing]

You're very welcome! 💖

[@deanli5793]

Wow Chi thankyou! I haven’t seen this analysis for undies before. I’m a rectangle with apple belly. After much trial and error and $$ I found waist height with high cut leg work for me…but I didn’t know why until now. Thanks again 😊

[@ddb3126]

What brand did you find?

[@deanli5793]

@@ddb3126 Target! High waist high cut leg style. I get them one size bigger than my usual jeans/skirts size that way I get as high a rise as possible and as high a leg cut as possible without going too crazy

[@mffmoniz2948]

Thank you so much for doing this video. It's such a neglected part of being a woman. People only mention the visible panty line and maybe recomend tongs or invisible wear and that's about it. But there's so much more to it. I've tried different styles. The one i feel most confortable nowdays are basically "granny panties". High rise, the leg is just at the crease for thigh and butt, cotton. I can even buy them in white (or skin colour) to wear with white jeans. They cover so much and stop just at the right point. I don't need to worry about anything. I do still have some tongs for hot summer days. And some prettier lacy things. But I 100% choose comfort over beauty.

[@yc5000]

This video was so incredibly helpful!! THANK YOU!!

[@eleanorbarsic8065]

This is he best shape video I've ever seen! Good job.

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad you liked it!

[@sarawawa8984]

I feel like I finally understand why people say thongs are comfortable. I find them so uncomfortable and just figured people were lying when they said they’re comfortable but it probably is actually that we have very different body shapes

[@kinseyfreed3692]

Omg. I am honestly mind blown! I literally knew nothing about the subject, just assumed it was preference only, and have never seen anything or any sort of content made on the subject! I am so freaking impressed. You literally hit the nail on the head. I have the hourglass figure, and my bikini cut just does not do it for me. That is what I pick out most of the time because it is what I prefer aesthetically, but it never stays in place.

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad it was helpful and you enjoyed it, Kinsey!

[@theariesnme]

This was sooo good. I struggled with finding underwear that fit my body type. I am plus size 16 with little to no hips, full bust, round in middle and always pulling up Jean's, jeggings or underwear because they have nothing to hang on . My Underwear would roll down constantly. I had been wearing high leg underwear by jockey and those seemed to be the best for me and to see that you made this video confirms that high leg is the best fit Thank you.

[@PetiteDressing]

You're welcome! Thanks for sharing!

[@dianethompson9525]

Thanks for giving full coverage ideas that don’t look like granny pants!! Love your sense of humor!!

[@PetiteDressing]

Glad you like them!

[@CampLJNC]

Thanks for addressing this issue! I am a classic pear shape, and it took me countless wasted purchases to realize that none of the newer shapes fit my body comfortably. It is really hard to find a good pair of bikini underwear that stay in place. Like you said, sizing up is not always the answer. I can now tell by the shape (if they have some extra room in the back) if they are going to work for me. I now only purchase bikini cut underwear, but if they are cut straight up like a cheeky pair, they are not going to stay in place!

[@PetiteDressing]

Thanks for sharing, jp chacha!

[@emilrojas2697]

I love you!! You have saved my life 😅🤍

[@CRAYONL516]

This is such a helpful video and so true! I am hourglass shape mostly and recently have been wearing probably what people call “granny” underwear but I’ve found it really does look the most flattering and cute on my shape and also is the most comfortable. They do make some great cute designs too which helps now. Also only recently did I even bother learning what the different cut means. I used to just buy it if it was cute and just ignored the type 😂

[@arianebennion]

I love you're humor! So darn cute! Keep it up!😊❤

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you so much! ❣️

[@chandlerwaddell8364]

Honestly just avoided wearing underwear unless it was that time of the month and washed my laundry more frequently since only a couple of my jeans fit well - can't wait to do some underwear shopping for once :)

[@PetiteDressing]

Yey!

[@simones.8732]

When I was a young teen and my mom still shopped for me I asked why she only ever bought fairly high waisted (granny/period) panties and she said they were for holding in your tummy, but she also insisted on full coverage, modest everything. When I was an older teen I finally went underwear shopping for myself and bought lower rise cheeky undies. Love the cheekiness but the fupa has absolutely no support 😂😂 So now at 21 I need to figure out what my body needs, and what is flattering before I go shopping for a whole new wardrobe 😅

[@PetiteDressing]

Thanks for sharing, Simone! I'm sure you'll figure out what's best for you!

[@Xavier-ts9eq]

Dear petite, thank you so much for your free humorous tips 😂😂

[@allisonwendt8461]

Im an hourglass and definitely hate the problems of most bikini cuts riding up or having to much fabric tension around the hips and causing any panty to become a cheeky. I have thicker thighs too and most boy shorts styles are uncomfortable for me as they roll up. Yuck. The stretch lace ones are like you said much better. Overall I eventually solved with string bikini. Having less fabric around the hips and the string sides being so stretchy it really helped alleviate all the cheeky and ride up problems for me.

[@PetiteDressing]

Thank you for sharing Allison!

[@Raynabananas]

thanks for this! took many years of trial and error to figure out the best underwear for me. i may have to consider high rise at some point but hard to find high rise with enough room for the legs also. i constantly get wedgies because so many undies don't have enough coverage. also i only wear dark leggings cus it's less obvious with the underwear lol - light leggings are sooo dangerous!!

[@christymackinnon1204]

lol, let’s hear it for granny panties!

[@rebekahsibanda2586]

Wow I'm so glad I found this video, I'm an hourglass and I've always struggled with my underwear but now I'm sorted

[@Fkthisshitt]

I needed these tips thank you!

[@PetiteDressing]

You're welcome! ❣️

[@chicanica64]

Thank you! Been doing it wrong…🤦🏾‍♀️

[@Mali4d]

Great video ! One style not mentioned here is Brazilian briefs. I’m a pear/hourglass and that’s the only thing I can ever wear other than high leg thongs. I can never make high coverage work no matter what I try - it always just rolls up and gives me a wedgie unless I go for a really large size 😂

[@KalnayakJi]

Oh wow! So glad you like it!

[@wijcik]

I've never seen a slender apple before. I loved all the information in this video, and thank you for normalizing all body types.

[@annatheawesome1]

Currently an apple who has worn hipsters since I was a teen but over the past year they keep rolling down while I'm moving which is both awkward and uncomfortable. I made the decision to get briefs a few months ago and it has been great! It has given me enough coverage in the tum, doesn't ride up the bum and they haven't rolled down once! I'm so glad fashion brought back high waisted! 😊

[@PetiteDressing]

Thanks for sharing, Anna!
