NATURAL UNDERWEAR THAT FITS

  • Elizaveta Bennett

There're two general issues with female underwear for me: material & fit. I want it 100% natural and I want it to sit well around my body. I have never found a pair that was both.

A year or so back I was killing time before the train and I decided to have a look for new underwear both for myself and Andrew. Usual shop that sells everything from pots to pants.

Male section was pretty straightforward: most boxers were 100% cotton in composition, just pick the size and colour.

Female section: not a single pair was made with 100% cotton. Not a single one. Not even 95% cotton, no: only polyester & nylon. 100% synthetic.

At that moment I decided to create a free tutorial for women on how to make natural underwear that fits. Synthetic panties are really bad for female health. Poor hygiene & all sorts of nasty add-ons (google it).

But what was originally planned as a short tutorial, grew arms and legs and became a complete course. We're still releasing it for free for everyone on our Youtube channel, here's part 1:

But if you want a better learning experience, more structured & intimate (without those annoying ads), you can also sign up to the course right here. The course comes with lifetime access, very handy pdf instructions to help you draft a pattern & a life-time access to our Free Sewing Course.

Designing knickers is very similar to designing clothes. You start with the basic block, master the fit, create dozens of different designs based on your block.

The most time consuming part is mastering the original pattern & figuring out the fit you like. But after all that is done, you'll be making new patterns for new panties in under a minute. What? Yes.

While there isn't magic button to make a perfect pair appear out of thin air, you absolutely can design it with a bit of patience and an open mind.
