How to Find Lingerie That's Comfortable and Sexy

Being comfortable doesn’t have to mean dressing in beige, dowdy undergarments. When you combine beauty and function, you get pieces that feel good to wear and look good, too. “Feeling comfortable and confident is feeling sexy,” explains Amberly Wright, Uwila Warrior’s Director of Growth. At Uwila Warrior, we’re all about celebrating your existing body shape, not some aspirational sexy. That’s why our brand’s lingerie options include chemises, camis, and silk panties that work with your body, not against it. 

Showing Off Your Shape 

At Uwila, we approach the design process with the objective to flatter the wearer’s natural body shape. “We never aim to compress, distort, lift, or mold the body, but instead want women to be able to celebrate their unique form,” explains Samantha Benassai, head of product at Uwila Warrior. Sexy to us means feeling good in your skin, because your under things aren’t pinching, pulling or creating bulges, but rather molding around you and creating a smooth appearance under your clothes. 

Lingerie That Puts Women First 

In the last few years, the entire undergarment industry has seen a shift towards comfort. “While sexy lingerie still has its moment, women are gravitating toward garments that work with their bodies and keep up with their busy lifestyle,” explains Amberly. 

A recent New York Times piece recognized this change. Even traditional and problematic lingerie brands, long driven by the male gaze, are re-imagining themselves. The article explains that as old brands evolve and new ones emerge, no one shape, size, or person defines what’s sexy. Instead, sexy is about feeling confident in your skin.

We couldn’t agree more. After decades of not seeing themselves reflected on billboards or runways, today’s women deserve to celebrate their bodies as they are. “They want garments that feel good on and fit them as they are today, without the expectation that they will warp their bodies to fit into some unattainable ideal dictated by predominantly male-headed corporations,” Samantha explains. “Down with the patriarchy! Jk. Kind of,” she adds.
