16 Pairs Of Plus Size Underwear That Are Cute And Comfortable
by Amber Petty

I've never had a flat stomach. That's not a bad thing, but it does make finding cute and comfortable plus size underwear a bit of a chore.

If you've ever looked through plus size underwear options, you know that "cute" usually isn't the first word that comes to mind. I'm saying that as a huge fan of granny panties, but there's only so much beige underwear you can look at before you wish there was a better selection. Then on the flip side, there's a lot of new websites for sexy plus size lingerie. This is an amazing development, but when I'm running to the grocery store, I don't really need a g-string and garter set.

So, what's a curvy lady to do when she needs some cute, comfy underwear? Well, thankfully Amazon has a lot options. If you're in the mood for a high waisted brief or a comfortable lacy thong (comfortable thong does sound like an oxymoron, but it's possible!), they've got some adorable plus sized sized choices. All of these underwear go up to at least 2X and most to 4X or more. You won't have to worry about your underwear rolling down or riding up. You definitely won't have the underwear that manages to roll down and ride up at the same time, somehow challenging physics and being insanely annoying.

So, if you'd like to fill your delicates drawer with cute and comfortable underwear, these 16 are a great place to start. And since you look cute at any size, there's no reason why your underwear can't do the same.

A Cheeky Panty With An On-Trend Band

Torrid Trim Lace Cheeky Panty, $19, Amazon

I love a great boyshort! One made entirely of stretchy lace is even better. These are a little cheeky, aka not 100 percent butt coverage, but they don't ride up. The wide waistband makes these underwear more secure than your average lace piece and gives them a unique look. There's even a matching bralette if you'd like an all over lacy ensemble.

A Three-Pack Of Everyday Undies With Lace Detail

The lace waistband gives these briefs a really cute look while the full coverage is comfortable enough to wear all day long. Made with a silky microfiber, it's designed to look smooth under clothes and stay in place without pinching.

A Hipster Panty With Intricate Detail

Comfortable panties don't have to be boring. These underwear are the epitome of sexy and comfortable. The interesting strappy details on both the front and back are very alluring, but the material is soft and you're still fully covered.

A Thong That Doesn't Remind You Of Dental Floss

Hanky Panky Plus-Size Retro Thong, $25, Amazon

I've always wanted a thong with a little more coverage and this is it! These underwear look like briefs from the front, but have a thong back to avoid panty lines. You won't have to keep pulling these up and ending up with a whale tale, they stay in place and look smooth under any fabric.

5

A Duo Of Leak-Proof Period Panties

Intimate Portal Total Leak Proof Briefs, $15-$40 (2 Pack), Amazon

Whether your period is in that "is it over?" phase or you need something for spotting protection at night, these underwear are perfect. They aren't meant to replace a tampon for all day use, but for light flow or spotting times, these can save you a panty liner. Or if you're having a very heavy day, these with a tampon will ensure you'll have no leaks. Though they're waterproof, these underwear are totally comfortable. Plus, there's a little pocket where you can keep extra pads or tampons in case of emergencies.

A Classic Lacy Thong With Just The Right Amount Of Stretch

I am a size 18 and ordered the plus size and these fit me to a T, with no riding up or digging in where they shouldn't be. I bought these upon recommendation from a friend who hand washes hers and she has had some for 7 years and they look brand new. Best money ever spent on a pair of panties. Definitely will be getting more."
