14 BEST SEXY PLUS-SIZE PANTIES FOR THE CHUBBY BADDIES

Even while we wear jeans, T-shirts, tanks, and shoes frequently throughout the year, we don’t wear them as frequently as we do our underwear, which is the foundation of every well-put-together ensemble. Consequently, it’s critical that the shoes we choose fit well, provide comfortable wear all day, and cover up any clothing worn over them. It’s a large task that is seldom accomplished in every way. See which sexy plus-size panties will have you falling in love right away by scrolling down.

TORRID COTTON MID-RISE HIPSTER LACE TRIM PANTY

As timeless as a long-line dress dress, black underwear can also be dressed up with a playful design or pattern on occasion. If so, Torrid has some really desirable mid-rise hipster underwear that is sure to make your wish list. There are 27 (yes, 27!) different prints and colors available in sizes up to 6X, ranging from vibrant animal prints to delicate florals and seasonal patterns. But with these underwear, comfort doesn’t have to be sacrificed for elegance. They fit perfectly on the hips, provide medium coverage, and are comfortable without digging in or pinching because of their cotton and spandex combination. Rather, they resemble a soft, comforting hug—but for your ass.

CALVIN KLEIN BIKINI PANTY

This Calvin Klien bikini panty pair is the most colorful option when it comes to underwear. There are an astounding 26 hues to choose from, including brights, neutrals, and patterns. But apart from its vibrant design, this bikini panty is also cozy thanks to a wide waistband that won’t pinch or protrude and a smooth, elastic fabric blend. Its simple pull-on clasp fits sizes up to 3X, and the bikini design gives perfectly proportioned mid-range coverage. 

SKIMS SOFT SMOOTHING BRIEFS

Even though these shaping briefs from Skims are classified as shapewear, you won’t even notice that you’re wearing them. These briefs have a seamless top-to-bottom design and come in four colors and sizes up to 4X. The briefs feel like a second skin because of the nylon and spandex construction, and the attractive high-cut style provides all-day coverage without pinching or bulging. It’s simple to think of Skims as simply another ostentatious celebrity lingerie business. You may obtain the necessary support and comfort for a fair price—these briefs just cost $20.

KNIX PROOF HIGH RISE

We won’t sugarcoat the fact that getting your period and having to change your underwear frequently are not enjoyable. However, you may at least have some piece of mind and a little protection against leaks along the road with this pair of leak-proof high-rise underwear from Knix. These high-rise underwear are the ideal backup for days when you have a lot of flow and don’t want to bleed through your trousers because they can absorb up to three tablespoons of liquid. They also provide a lot of coverage and are extremely breathable because of the high-rise fit and breathable fabric combination. If you are looking for a high-waisted cheeky panty, this is the one.

TOMBOYX ICONIC BRIEFS

These TomBoyX briefs are excellent examples of plus size panties for women who are active, whether you’re smashing iron or honing your downward dog. They come in nine colors and sizes up to 6X. They are composed of a breathable, silky cotton mix that feels good on the skin. This pair’s smooth and long-lasting flatlock seams guarantee that there won’t be any chafing or irritation as you work out. Additionally, since they are low-rise, clothes won’t reveal them. These briefs feature a low rise, which may impair covering, even if the elastic waistband keeps them in place. Therefore, think about getting a full coverage pair if you’re seeking anything that offers complete protection. 

SPLENDIES SUBSCRIPTION

The underwear subscription service for you is called Splendies if you’re the kind of person who enjoys surprises, particularly when they come in the shape of underwear. You’ll get three brand-new pairs of underwear every month in sizes up to 4X, including a range of designs, patterns, and hues. Since every pair of underwear in the box comes from a different brand, you’ll constantly be finding new favorites. Therefore, there is a plan that is ideal for you, regardless of whether you are a long-term admirer or a commitment phobe. With monthly pricing as low as $16.99, it’s undoubtedly an affordable way to maintain an interesting and new selection of underwear.

THIRDLOVE LACE BACK CHEEKY

This Third Love panty is unquestionably a ten out of ten because of its lacey features, vivid colors, and cheeky fit. Its low-rise design ensures a smooth and comfortable fit without bunching or rolling, and it comes in 15 colors and sizes up to 3X. You’ll feel just like a lingerie model when you slide into these panties—not to be dramatic or anything. It features a jaw-dropping floral lace back and is transparent and sultry. But don’t worry, the cotton lining makes it comfy as well. 

SOMA EMBRACEABLE SUPER SOFT LACE HIPSTER

Although this Soma hipster panty only goes up to a size 2X, trust us when we say that it still fits perfectly everywhere else. The elastic leg opening holds everything in place and keeps things from riding up, while the smooth, flexible cloth of the waistband fits your body without digging in. The rayon and spandex fabrics used to produce this hipster panty give it a lightweight, elastic feel. The best aspect, though, is that there are no tags on the back of this panty, so your skin won’t become angry. Of course, these underwear are fashionable as well. The geometric lace design gives the ideal amount of refinement to the hipster style, which is fashionable and current. 

HANKY PANKY PLUS SIZE RETRO THONG

Hanky Panky’s seductive plus-size thong is made of 100% nylon, 79% nylon, and 21% spandex trim, with 100% cotton inside. Its high-waisted silhouette offers a covering that flatters the form. Stretchy to the max, the delicate supporting lingerie fits sizes 14 to 24 on the size chart. The incredibly roomy lace waistline guarantees a smooth lower abdomen. Plus-size ladies may now enjoy wearing thongs with the extra bonus of having a slight stomach tucker thanks to this ideal solution. It comes in a range of hues, including black, chai, purple, pink, red, white, and classic leopard.

INTIMISSIMI HIGH-RISE HIPSTER

The Intimissimi High-Rise Cotton and Lace Hipsters are a sophisticated and elegant pair of briefs that are ideal for a wide range of people, including menopausal mothers seeking comfortable options and college freshmen venturing out on their own. These panties, which are embellished with exquisite lace and composed of soft stretch cotton, provide a decent amount of coverage without sacrificing style. The fact that they ride up a bit on the butt gives them an air of racy rather than practicality, but they also cover a significant amount of the wearer’s abdomen, maybe reaching just beneath the belly button, depending on the shape and size of your body. 

DREAMGIRL HIGH WAISTED LACE PANTY

Fashion designer Jenny Han says that the Dreamgirls’ most popular panty from last year is the High Waisted Lace Panty, which is slinky and sensual. The panties, which are made of a lace blend, have a cheek-bearing back fit, a scalloped lace trim, and a lovely peekaboo cutaway directly above the butt. Wear them around the home if you’re feeling hot, for a romantic rendezvous, or underneath formal attire when you want to keep your sense of (sexual) self intact. Sometimes it’s difficult to locate a certain color or fit, especially in the popular plus sizes.

NATORI FEATHER GIRL BRIEF

Natori’s Feathers Girl Briefs are luscious, elegant, and retro-inspired, with just the right amount of sass and sophistication. You may feel confident in your activities below thanks to their full-coverage style. With the gorgeous imported feather lace that comprises the majority of the briefs’ body, you may also feel stylish. The best part, especially if you care about the environment, is that your Feathers Girl Briefs may include recycled lace, depending on the color you select. This means that they are not only stylish but also environmentally friendly. 

HANKY PANKY SIGNATURE LACE BOYSHORT

This pair features an ingenious cut that hugs curves. Boy shorts usually cover the entire back and are cut straight across the thigh, but the Signature Lace Boyshort features a slightly more figure-enhancing, slightly more exposing design. These boy shorts have an attractive V-shape due to the angled cuts at the waist and leg openings, which also reveal a little bit of cheek in the back. The delicate flower design appears to have the potential to be scratchy, but it’s actually rather harmless—not incredibly soft, but also not bothersome. Furthermore, the gusset (crotch liner) is composed of silky, breathable Supima cotton, opulent, extra-long-staple cotton, and there are no side seams to press on your hips. Numerous people expressed how “sexy” they felt looking at the woven lace.

TORRID SEAMLESS RIBBED HIGH-RISE THONG PANTY

This Torrid panty is a must-have if you’re looking for a thong that’s both fashionable and comfy. Its high-rise waistband forms a beautiful shape by sitting precisely on your waist. Its seamless structure eliminates the possibility of irritation or chafing. Thick, smoothing spandex and sturdy nylon make up this thong, which comes in sizes up to 6X. Additionally, there are no apparent panty lines with this panty at all because of the low covering on the backside, which makes it an amazing plus size women’s panty.
