Types of Pant for women

Types of Pant

Panties are divided into various types based on such criteria as amount of rear coverage, width at the sides, and height at which they are worn. These categories are not necessarily distinct and usage may vary somewhat among brands.

Briefs rise to the waist or just below the navel and have full coverage in the rear. 

 Classic or full brief- the sides extend below the hip 

High cut brief or French brief- the sides are somewhat narrower. 

Boy leg brief or boy short - styled after men's briefs and may have short legs extending below the crotch. 

Control panties or control briefs- a special type of briefs designed to offer support and give a slimmer appearance; these usually contain a stretch material such as spandex and may extend above  

Hipsters are similar to briefs, but are worn lower with the waistband around the hips. 

Bikinis are also worn at the hips, but the fabric at the sides is narrower. In the string bikini, it disappears altogether to leave the waistband as a "string". The rear coverage of the bikini is not as full as with the brief. Bikini is the most widely worn style among women worldwide. Tangos have full rear coverage, but the waistband is reduced to a narrow strip at the sides. Thongs have a waistband similar to tangos, but the rear coverage is not as full. The crotch is extended to the back with a narrow strip of fabric fitting between the buttocks, which become wider toward the top. he G-string is a thong with virtually no rear coverage, the narrow strip in the back extending from the crotch all the way to the waistband. It shows most of the buttocks.
