Briefs for Jeans
I'm a believer.
It’s just what happens: Your underwear shows because your jeans hang low. Was it even a look before Calvin Klein ads made it one in the early 90s? But has it stopped being sexy for even a second since?
I’ve always had a less-is-best attitude about what I wear under my jeans. They’re jeans. Who needs maximum support or coverage in jeans? But then I had a customer who was wondering if she should go up a size in the Georgia tell me that these Spanx made the smaller size feel perfect. “Like it was made just for me,” she wrote, which got me thinking about what the right underwear can do for the relationship we have with our jeans. Had I been missing something all these years? Was underwear – slimming, visible, unisex, or not – actually game-changing? The more I thought about it, the more obvious it seemed. Why wouldn’t the shape-and-mood-enhancing effects of our underpinnings rub off on how we feel in jeans?
