    1. Sexy sheer high-waisted lace undies with mesh panels and contrast trim for a flirty look you'll want to wear all the time.

    Free People

    Promising review: "I bought these in red and purple! Such a cute set together and the sizing is perfect." —cactuslady

    Get them from Free People for $20 (available in sizes XS–L and three colors).

    2. A five-pack of cotton tummy-control panties that'll be pleasant enough to wear every day or even after a C-section.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "These have been great for recovering from my C-section. The seam comes up well over the incision site and the compression material has been helpful. I normally wear a size large but got an extra large, and I'm glad I did. I was pretty swollen after the section, and a large would have been too small. Now a week out they're a little big, but they still work well." —Sarah Swann

    Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (availalbe in sizes S–2XL).

    3. Plus-size cutout panties with a sexy trim.

    Torrid

    Get them from Torrid for $24.90 (available in sizes M–6X).

    4. High-waisted sport thongs to wear while working out (or whenever you want).

    Amazon

    Promising review: "These panties are perfect to wear working out or for everyday wear. I love the fact that they are higher and closer to the navel. Most thongs these days are bikini style, which I find to be uncomfortable. Plus the higher rise helps to hold in my tummy, so I wear these with skinny jeans or any item that has a tight fit. There is just enough spandex that holds you in without being uncomfortable. I'm definitely going to order another pack." —Amazon Customer

    Get them from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL, in a 6- or 12-pack, and 10 colors).

    5. Mesh undies with high-cut sides that'll become your absolute go-to panties.

    Free People

    Promising review: "Surprisingly comfortable. They look like they would be scratchy. However, they are comfortable and provide a little tummy control and not to mention, very nice looking." —margy

    Get them from Free People for $32 (available in sizes XS–L and four colors).

    6. Plus-size nude shorts that can be worn under anything to prevent leg chaffing while smoothing and lifting.

    Torrid

    Promising review: "If you have an issue with your thighs rubbing together as you walk, these are amazing to go under dresses and skirts. Well-made, great design that doesn’t ride or roll up when you walk. I am happy as can be." —CATHEYGING

    Get them from Torrid for $24.90 (available in sizes M–6X).

    7. A six-pack of plus-size lingerie panties for an elegant, sexy feel that won't bind or bunch.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I LOVE these underpants! They are sooooo comfortable, stay put, and don't ride up your butt. Plus, you CANNOT see them through pants or leggings. The spandex keeps you nice and tight, and the lace on the top of the leg is very comfortable as to not bind. The waistband is also great. Gals we all know we feel good and sexy with new underwear. These are perfect. I bought six more pairs and threw all my old junkie stuff out. I highly recommend these!!" —CharD

    Get them from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes XL, 4X–5X).

    8. Smooth high-cut briefs with such a seamless fit, you might forget you're even wearing them.

    Get them from Soma for $15 (available in sizes S–2XL and four colors).

    9. See-through jade high-cut briefs to give you some serious sex appeal.

    Free People

    Promising review: "These panties are so sexy. I wore these to work the day I got them. They’re now my favorite go-to set." —Schoollovers

    Get them from Free People for $38 (available in sizes S–L).

    10. Soft high-waisted boy briefs that'll fit comfortably and flexibly under your favorite high-waisted jeans.

    American Eagle

    Promising review: "I love the style and cut! These are soft and perfect under all my high-waisted pants. I normally wear size XL in the boy briefs. I decided to go one size smaller since my waist isn’t nearly as large as my hips. SUPER COMFY GRANNY PANTIES! ORDERING MORE!" —ZEEKTHEGEEK

    Get them from American Eagle for $9.50 (available in sizes XXS–L and four colors).

    11. High-leg bikini panties to comfortably stay put and not ride up under your pants.

    Victoria's Secret

    Promising review: "This panty is very comfortable and doesn't ride up so I say that's a win-win. I like the thick band, but they doe run slightly large so I ordered a size down and they fit perfectly after I washed and put them in the dryer. I ordered five and wished I got more when they were on sale. I usually wear the hiphuggers, boy shorts, and cheekies, but they were never as comfortable to wear as much as these. Highly recommend!" —vsshopper731

    Get them from Victoria's Secret for $10.50 (available in sizes XS–XL and nine colors).

    12. Microfiber high-leg panties with an invisible fit to keep your panties in place without those annoying panty lines.

    Soma

    Promising review: "I’ve worn the high-leg vanishing edge panties for many years and they are definitely my all-time favorites! I prefer the ones with the lace across the waist and enjoy the many patterns and colors. They fit smoothly, stay in place, and honestly have made panty lines a thing of the past." —Soma diva

    Get them from Soma for $19 (available in sizes S–XL and 10+ colors).

    13. High-waisted form control undies for giving you a comfortable and sleek look whenever you wear your favorite outfit.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "Wow wow wow! Love these. Must have all colors. I went by the size chart and they fit perfectly and are so comfortable. Stay up somewhat well, but does need adjusting if, say, you are sitting for a period. Absolutely comparable with Spanx brand but so much less money. I recommend these to anyone looking for shapewear that nips in the tummy, hips, and back area where your bra makes those weird rolls. I machine-washed on gentle and hung to dry. Laundered beautifully." —Crystal H.

    Get them from Amazon for $12+ (available in sizes S–2XL and four colors).

    14. "No Pinching, No Problem" panties — they'll be the coziest underwear you'll ever own.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I first bought these panties several years ago, along with some other panties. These became my favorites! They have lasted a long time, keeping their shape and staying comfortable through many, many laundry loads. These are the absolute most comfortable panties I have ever worn — they are definitely no pinching, no problems! Love the wide waistband and love that there are no panty lines under my clothes. Wearing these is almost like going commando!" —Dawn W

    Amazon

    Promising review: "These panties are wonderful. I need high-waisted panties due to a surgical scar. These fit the bill. They're soft, perforated for coolness, stretchy, keep their shape, and thin/unnoticeable under clothes. I love them!" —Lisa R.

    Get them from Amazon for $21+ (available in sizes S–XL and five colors).

    17. Spanx Hi-Hipster panties that won't crease or leave lines.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I actually bought mine somewhere else and came back here to buy more. I love these panties! So cute, very comfy, and gloss over trouble spots without causing a muffin top or showing lines. I'd say they smooth, rather than smash it all in like most Spanx. But they make me feel pretty and that's what all panties should do!" —TamilynS

    Get them from Amazon for $19.49+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 10+ colors).

    19. A five-pack of plus-size cotton underwear — they'll be great for regular wear and won't stretch out over time.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "Finally! Panties that fit the larger figure. Everything granny panties should be and used to be. They come up to the real waist and cover the belly button. Yes, I am an old-fashioned 71-year-old gal but I still want panties that fit like I was used to. Thanks for making these. They do not stretch out, are soft, and comfortable, and wash like a dream. Perfect!!" —Pat Lea
