How to Avoid Panty Lines

Visible panty lines, the dreaded VPL, count as a minor to major fashion faux pas, depending on your perspective. Follow these steps to avoid them.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Wear a thong. Get rid of the bottom line by eliminating it instead of trying to hide it. Thongs sometimes take awhile to get used to, but millions of women swear by their comfort.

2. Buy panties that have a subtle hem line, smaller stitching or are seamless. Cotton panties with large bands are guaranteed to give you a giant, noticeable panty line.

3. Invest in underwear or undergarments that hold in fat. Body-shaping undies usually run from your thighs to your mid-waist, so there's no need to worry about visible panty lines. Modern versions of body-shaping attire are usually made from spandex and are quite comfortable for everyday wear.

4. Steal from men's fashion. Wearing boy shorts, boxers, or women's boxer-briefs is a great way to rid the appearance of panty lines. Make sure your boy undies are tight-fitting or you'll have another problem--boxer lines instead of panty lines.

5. Dress in dark colors or jeans. White pants are another visible panty line guarantee. However, it's much more difficult to point out a panty line in black or brown dress pants or denim.

6. Go commando. Can't get used to thongs? The only 100% no-panty-line guarantee is to wear absolutely nothing at all under your attire.

Tips & Warnings

• If you are consistently comfortable in a thong, brave a G-string or V-string. These undies have even less fabric. In addition to eliminating a panty line, they also help to reduce a "fat line" at the waist that many thong-wearing women fall victim to.
• Buying undies in the wrong size is an invitation for a glaring panty line.
