With the open lace, they breathe more than just cotton.

(I hadn't seen them since the 1960s.)&nbsp; The leg openings are bound in bias cotton rib instead of elastic, so they are extremely confortable, especially in hot weather. I do have thinner synthetics to wear with clingy things, but most days I reach for the Lollipops (the sort of white cotton undies that prompted Hugh Grant to say to Bridget Jones,&nbsp; "Hello, Mummy!")&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1533031 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 14:12:19 +0000 Style Fan 1533031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It depends on what I am wearing.&nbsp; I like Jockey bikini panties or Hanky Panky low rise thongs.&nbsp; </p> <p></p> <p></p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1533018 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 13:55:04 +0000 kerry 1533018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are my favourites right now.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1532892 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 05:35:13 +0000 Greyscale 1532892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorites are old Vicky's Secret all-cotton low-rise bikinis from around 10 years ago. I still have a few pairs. The new batch of Gap underpants I bought this year are already in worse shape than the ancient VS ones!&nbsp;I like them because they fit more loosely and breathe better than tight underpants, though they do make panty lines.</p> <p>The Jockey Elance bikinis look like the closest thing on the market these days. I should order some - I'm glad you all mentioned them. By their chart, I'm between sizes. I usually size up in underwear anyway, so I guess I'll try that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1532876 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 04:05:13 +0000 Echo 1532876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, how I envy those with a flat enough tum to wear boyshorts. Anything low-rise tends to lie annoyingly on my c-section scar, so I prefer seamless high-cut briefs. It is a shame that there seem to be so few pretty options in briefs of any sort, though.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1532852 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 03:12:54 +0000 Anonymous 1532852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So many great topics today, Angie!<br /> I second Maneera's shoutout for the good old m&amp;s high waists. </p> <p>In the U.S. I buy Commando cotton: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/commando-cotton-bikini/3060189?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&#038;contextualcategoryid=2375500&#038;fashionColor=Nude&#038;resultback=2394" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/co.....tback=2394</a> Plain Jane but not a panty line in sight. </p> <p>These Simone Pereles looked intriguing; I just ordered them to match a bra: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/simone-perele-andora-stretch-cotton-bikini/3674351?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=1415" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/si.....tback=1415</a> Will report back when they arrive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1532825 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 02:41:19 +0000 Carla 1532825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denver Hayes is the Mark's Work Warehouse house brand. MWWH specializes in uniforms - mostly heavy duty clothes for outdoor workers, and scrubs for health care workers, as well as jeans. They also carry footwear such as safety toe workbooks, rubber boots, and other shoes for folks who spend lots of time on their feet and good quality socks and underwear - thermal and regular. They carry a smattering of casual wear, and recently some business wear as well as nice leather sandals, shoes, and boots. Alfred Sung has designed a line for them.</p> <p>Well, they make a great 95% cotton, 5% Lycra bikini (other cuts as well) and sell it at a ridiculously low price. My set of 5 came in black, tan, white with black dots, white with black floral, and Black and Tan floral on white that co-ordinates with my tan and black bras. They come out of the wash beautifully, and have held up very well. I also like the jockey product, and have several pairs of this striped one - but it is not cotton. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1532823 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 02:38:20 +0000 Marley 1532823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great thread! &nbsp;I usually wear Hanky Panky thongs. &nbsp;They are soooo comfy - and, by wearing a thong, I don't have to deal with panties that bag in the bum &nbsp;(my biggest challenged in finding panties! - I've never found one that doesn't have too much fabric in the bum - very frustrating! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please/page/2#post-1532817 Tue, 04 Aug 2015 02:26:54 +0000 Thistle 1532817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a fan of Jockey French cut elance.

They are invisible under almost all clothing I wear (they do not work under yoga pants or leggings).</p> <p>Since I can't afford a drawer full of those, I supplement with Aerie Boy Briefs. Yes, Aerie is directed at teens, and some of the patterns are childish/twee, but there are plenty of solid colors. Those with lace edges around the leg openings tend to be invisible under most clothes, though not quite as good under some things as the Natori. </p> <p>I have a high hip to waist ratio, and both of these styles provide full rear coverage and don't ride up on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-your-favourite-cotton-knickers-here-please#post-1532553 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 19:07:41 +0000 Joyce B 1532553@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Author Linda.

They come in plus and regular sizes, which is why they've been my go-to brand for two decades, through my weight going up and then back down. The leg holes are nice and stretchy and always fit! Some models are 100% cotton; others are cotton blends or modal. They don't need babying and wear well.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.jockey.com/catalog?department=women&amp;category=underwear&amp;style=french-cut">http://www.jockey.com/catalog?.....french-cut</a></p> <p>I try other brands on occasion, but nine times out of ten the leg openings are uncomfortable.
