Maxi models will definitely appeal to mature women. Also, such women's panties are suitable for tight-fitting clothes. Pantaloons do not go out of fashion - they are elastic and comfortable. Some models of shapewear can also be included here.
Corrective panties
Based on the body type, what areas need to be hidden or changed, the girl determines the type of women's panties that suits her. Shorts help to correct the shape of the stomach and buttocks.

Corset panties have a high waistline that reaches the bottom of the bra. The underwear is preferred by women in the postpartum period. It helps to remove the rolls on the back and chest.
The following types of women's panties also belong to corrective products:
- grace;
- semi-grace;
- jumpsuit;
These models create a beautiful sculptural silhouette, as they combine different types of women's underwear. Grace is a bodysuit that allows you to shape the lines of the buttocks, abdomen, waist, and back. Half-graces are devoid of the lower part of the panties. Grace-corsets are open in the chest area. Their advantage is that they will suit girls of any size.
Jumpsuits look like grace, but at the bottom they have not panties, but pantaloons. This model corrects the hips and breeches. When choosing underwear, it is worth considering some points:
- while wearing shapewear, blood flow is disrupted, and as a result, the skin does not receive the necessary nutrition;
- Corrective products act as a muscle corset, as a result of which, over time, the muscles relax and weaken.
Corrective underwear can be worn for a limited amount of time – no more than 12 hours a week.
Materials
Every woman's wardrobe contains items made from natural, synthetic and mixed fabrics. The most common materials are:

Woolen products will not stretch or shrink after washing. They are worn by owners of curvy shapes, and are also suitable for slender girls. They sit tightly on the body, without adding extra centimeters.
The following types belong to artificial materials:
- Polyester – complements almost every type of panties. Due to the fibers, underwear lasts longer, gets dirty much more difficultly and retains its original appearance for a long time.
- Elastane – stretches well and returns to its original position. It is often combined with cotton fibers when sewing products with tightening and for corrective models.
- Polyamide – refers to a strong and durable fabric. If synthetics are present in the composition of panties, they will dry quickly after washing and will not wrinkle.
