THE BEST SEAMLESS UNDERWEAR, BRAS & SHAPEWEAR
The right underwear means never having to forsake a seamless appearance for comfort, as the best styles achieve both. And with advancements in fabric and technology, many undergarments can eliminate visible lines on even the most body-hugging outfits.
Today’s luxury underwear brands design breathable, supportive intimates that create the perfect foundation for building a streamlined look. While classic laser-cut bikini designs are the most popular, there are numerous styles to choose from: boyshorts, high briefs, thongs, and cheeky cuts. It’s just a matter of finding the perfect fit.
We’ve rounded up some of the best seamless underwear to keep bodycon dresses, mini skirts, and other skin-hugging styles looking their best.
WHAT IS SEAMLESS UNDERWEAR?
Seamless underwear is designed to act as a second skin, fitting close to the body without creating bunched fabric or visible lines. These undergarments have no prominent stitching, embellishments, or bands, allowing them to take on the body’s shape and movement.
Seamless underwear isn’t limited to panties. Bras and shapewear are just as effective at minimizing bumps and bulges.
MUST-HAVE SEAMLESS UNDERWEAR
Seamless panties are the best option to wear under a tight skirt, dress, or pants to keep lines hidden. The top intimates brands know how to make extraordinary no-show panties, designing everyday cuts in delicate fabrics and understated prints.
These three luxury labels create comfy undies you’ll happily live in:
Commando
Commando Seamless Printed Thong
Just because no-show underwear is meant to go unnoticed doesn’t mean the prints have to do the same. While the seamless collection at Commando offers a foundation of classic colors, additional bold patterns liven up the selection. Choose a seamless thong made from microfiber that sits across the hips in a low-rise style, sculpting a flattering shape against the body’s natural curves.
Hanro
Hanro creates a wide range of seamless cotton underwear in reliable minimalistic styles. Each design is crafted meticulously to form the perfect cut in several timeless colors, such as white, black, sweet pepper, and beige. The collection features high-cut, full-coverage briefs with thin satin trim for added comfort.
Chantelle
The French label Chantelle has been creating fine lingerie for more than 130 years. The brand uses subtle design elements such as laser-cut lace-trimmed waists to add a touch of charm to each pair. Chantell’s high-rise styles are excellent for everyday wear, with stretchy nylon and spandex providing full coverage and a cotton gusset that offers added comfort.
ESSENTIAL SEAMLESS BRAS
A seamless bra uses innovative stitching and molded cups to create smoothness for tight-fitting clothing, eliminating visible lines once and for all. The lack of seams allows tight shirts and dresses to cling to the body without interruption from bumps or ruffles.
These three designer bra brands have mastered the seamless style:
Fashion Forms
Fashion Forms has a perfected design for every occasion; no matter the outfit, there’s a bra to match, whether strapless, backless, or push-up. The brand’s backless push-up bras uplift the bust while keeping everything in place. Backless strapless styles feature gentle adhesive and a front closure for boosting cleavage.
Chantelle
Chantelle Smooth Lines Seamless Minimizer Bra
Chantelle’s seamless wire-free bras are unlined to enhance the body’s natural silhouette while providing support through adjustable shoulder straps and wide bands. Some designs feature faint geometric prints that give the otherwise simplistic designs added dimension.
The Upside
A seamless sports bra is necessary for any workout routine to remain comfortable. The Upside designs the ultimate sports bras from premium moisture-wicking fabric in energetic colors. The pullover styles have smooth back straps and a wide band under the bust to keep everything secure while on the move.
NEED-NOW SHAPEWEAR
While shapewear is in a league of its own, it’s designed to create a smooth appearance and remain invisible. Shapewear can be worn with or without underwear, but most are designed to go without, reducing the number of compression layers.
Explore these three shapewear brands that hug the body in all the right places:
Spanx
Spanx Suit Your Fancy Strapless Cupped Mid-Thigh Shaping Bodysuit
Spanx has a wide array of flattering body shapers in mid-thigh shorts, bodysuits, and catsuit styles. The high-waist shaper briefs are an excellent choice to layer under form-fitting dresses as they give wearers a sculpted figure.
Wacoal
The high-rise thigh shapers from Wacoal are great for wearing under form-fitting midi or maxi dresses, leggings, and tight trousers. The design works to reduce thigh chafing while flattening the tummy. The elastic-free waistband and seamless leg openings allow the shapers to stay disguised without sacrificing comfort.
Belly Bandit
Belly Bandit specializes in providing women with options to feel confident during pregnancy and beyond. The collection features sculpting maternity shorts made from WonderWeave, a fabric specially designed to keep skin hydrated. The shorts lift and smooth the belly to help expectant mothers feel comfortable and beautiful.
