The difference between women's underwear and lingerie

 


Many times people use the words lingerie and women's underwear interchangeably. However, there's a difference between them both.

Both lingerie and underwear are worn under the clothes. The difference is it serves a distinct purpose. Underwear is literally bras and panties，practical clothing that offers functionality. From briefs to boy-shorts- anything can be underwear.

Lingerie brings a chic and aesthetically pleasing look to the eyes. Most of the lingerie is made from satin and silk cloth. There are multiple types of lingerie available for several occasions and moods. You can pamper yourself by shopping from the exclusive range available only for you.It covers all items, from slips and teddies and garter belts, and peignoirs, to plus size bras, panties, g-strings, etc.

However,lingerie is a generic term to denote women's undergarments, although it is now used more for high quality underwear made with lace, satin, silk, etc. Your day to day bras and panties, while still lingerie, are simply called underwear.Underwear is a very generic word for whatever you put on under your outer wear. It makes sense, doesn’it? It therefore includes lingerie. In other words, lingerie is a category of underwear, just as sport or breast feeding bras are.

Lingerie is sexier, well designed, feminine, fancy underwear. It uses expensive fabrics, like genuine lace. Design is much more sophisticated. It is not only made for comfort or protection. It is not strictly utilitarian. It is more fragile (washing, drying…).As you understand, it is more, sometimes much, much more expensive. It is generally bought (and worn) as matching pieces : bra + panties/thongs, sometimes garter belts as well.

Given the price tag and the fitting necessity, high-end lingerie will rarely fill up the underwear drawer of average teenagers ! Female bodies can vary a lot between puberty and woman’s age, when it gets pretty stabilized. Thus, lingerie is mostly worn by >25 years old women.

The difference between what we call lingerie, underwear and corsetry, is almost nil, since practically its function is the same, its original purpose is quite deferred from one another.

Do you like plus size women?

  If you were a man, would you like girls with big sizes? I think I will. Women in society are larger now than they ever have been at any time in our history. I find that more and more men are finding plus size women to be even more beautiful than thin and skinny women. Plus size women often wear flattering tops and bottoms that accentuate their breasts, butt and bellies. Most of the time if they are big busted they wear  plus size lingerie  that show lots of cleavage because they can flaunt it. For a man like me I find this particularly attractive as I love women with curves. I think women with curves are more attractive than thinner, skinny women. I have seen and heard from guys that they are finding ladies who have more curves more attractive in general. Several of my good friends have chosen big-size girls as their girlfriends or wives. We all think they will be more attractive and sexy than thin girls. I hear men that always comment how big their wives get when pregnant and love h

  We often hear some large-size women say that lingerie is not comfortable to wear, it may be too tight or uncomfortable due to other reasons. It's not easy to find uncomfortable curves that set you off...boring lingerie. The best  plus-size lingerie  not only makes you look great but also makes you feel it. Looking sexy is about feeling sexy and loving your body, embracing your body and beauty without apology, and owning it. Most people wear it only because of the habit we have developed since childhood. In fact, wearing it is good for our health. We should not reject it and let our body actively cater to it and adapt to it. Here are a few advantages of wearing it. 1. Prevent damage to the sensitive part of the skin It can prevent the skin of our genital area from being damaged because the skin of our genital area is more sensitive and fragile. For example, when we do some cycling exercises, it may cause abrasions on the sensitive part of the skin. At this time Cycling shorts are
