Strapless and Bra Slip: A full slip with a built-in strapless bra or underwire, padded or padded push-up bra with straps.
Tailored, Lacy Full Slips: Full slips may be very tailored to create a smooth line under knits, or lavishly trimmed in lace at the bodice and hem.
Chemise: A flirty little mini-slip in lengths that range from top of the thigh to mid-thigh. Perfect for short skirts, asymetrical or slit hemlines.
Half Slips: Half slips come in many lengths and may be smooth and tailored or lavishly trimmed with lace.
Stretch: Slips blended with LYCRA® that provide a smooth line and ease of movement. The stretch fabric may be in the bra and bodice or allover, for body-conscious knits.

Panty Styles

Brief: Full-coverage, to-the-waist panty, cut low on the thigh.
Seamless: Panties knitted in one piece to provide a smooth, seamless fit.
Light Control: Everyday underwear with a touch of control for gently smoothing tummy, hips and derriere. LYCRA® adds comfortable control and ease of movement.
Bikini (V-Cut, French, String): Skimpier styles with narrow sides, including V-cut (in front), French cut (with high-cut sides) and low-cut String (with string sides).
High-Cut Brief: A panty fitted to the waist and cut high on the leg to visually lengthen legs, minimize panty lines.
Hipster: A panty worn low at the hip bones and cut higher on the sides.
Thong: The barest, most body-conscious style, with center string or thong on back. Ensures no panty lines under most clothes.

Bra Cup Styles

Seamed: A basic bra for every figure that needs a little more support. The seams define the bra's shape and size.
Padded and Padded Push-Up: Bras with fiberfill padding that add size, definition and a natural, well-proportioned look to smaller bustlines. Padded push-ups go a step further, offering maximum cleavage and curves.
Seamless: For all figure types that need a smooth look under clothes. Choose exact size, from light to full support, as cups are molded into a permanent shape and fit.
Underwire: Bras with soft, flexible wiring under each cup to lift, separate and support the bustline.
Contour: A "lightly padded" bra with a minimal layer of fiberfill to add definition and size to small bustlines and in-between sizes.
Soft Cup: A bra without underwires or padding.
Stretch: Bras made of fabrics with LYCRA® lend a smooth, sleek look and great freedom of movement, comfort and fit.
Demi-Cup: A cut-away, contoured underwire bra that lifts and reveals the tops of the breasts for a decollete look.
