A size bigger
I struggled to find underwear that not only fit well but was also beautiful and sustainable. I often accepted the idea that underwear for women with a larger size had to be functional rather than stylish or luxurious.
As a woman with a fuller figure and bladder issues, I know better than anyone how important comfortable underwear is. For years, I struggled to find underwear that not only fit well but was also beautiful and sustainable. I often accepted the idea that underwear for women with a larger size had to be functional rather than stylish or luxurious.
When my first order arrived, I was immediately impressed. It felt luxurious yet eco-conscious. The material – made from bamboo – was incredibly soft on my skin. And the bamboo fabric regulates moisture and temperature perfectly. One of the biggest advantages of Swaens is how the underwear supports my body without pinching. I wear size 3XL, which is often hard to find in a flattering fit from many brands. But this underwear fits wonderfully.
Besides the comfort and fit, the sustainable aspect of Swaens was another important reason for my choice. The idea that my underwear is not only good for me but also good for the planet gives me an extra sense of satisfaction. The bamboo used to make the underwear is eco-friendly, biodegradable, and requires less water than cotton during production. Moreover, it’s washable – machine washable, making maintenance super easy.
My personal favorite is the Swaens High Waist in black. It sits high enough to give me a secure feeling while still being stylish. The fabric stays beautiful even after multiple washes, and the fit remains perfect.
