It is important to find panties that are comfortable and not have a “riding up” or showing any VPL (visible panty lines) when they are worn under clothings. By doing a simple measurement to determine your panty size to aid in the shopping process. However, panty sizes may differ due to manufacturer differences.
Simply take 2 measurements: one of the waist and the other of the hips. Use a soft tape measure and a mirror while doing so for better accuracy.
Step 1: Waist measurement
Wrap the tape measure snugly but not cinching around the natural indentation at your waist. If you can’t find this curve, bend to the side and the crease will show you where to measure.
Step 2: Hips measurement
Wrap the tape measure around the fullest part of your hips. Use the mirror to make sure the tape measure is leveled completely around. The tape measure should be snug.
Match your numbers to the chart to see your proper panty size.
Example: If your waist measured 28, and your hips measured 37, your panty size will be wither Medium or Size 6.
