Panty lines? We don’t know her.

Picture this: You've carefully put together a fabulous outfit only to be stopped in your tracks by unsightly lines peeking through your clothing. That's where no-show underwear comes in: seamless styles that are ultra-thin and virtually invisible by design.

No-show underwear is more than just a comfortable choice. It's a confidence-booster and foundation for feeling your best in any outfit. Whether you're stepping into a formfitting dress, tailored pants, or your favorite workout set, knowing that your underwear is working behind the scenes to avoid any embarrassing mishaps can make all the difference.

Creative director Adam Glassman's pro tip? When wearing white or lighter-colored clothing, always match your undergarments with your skin tone. A common mistake people make is opting for white underwear—which actually makes them more visible. Also, if you're looking for a little more support and shaping, don't miss the Oprah Daily guide to shapewear and plus-size shapewear.
