Let’s be real—finding the right panty size shouldn’t feel like solving a math equation. Yet, so many of us are walking around in ill-fitting underwear, dealing with roll-downs, pinching, or worse—unwanted visibility under clothes. As someone who’s tested over 50 brands and helped thousands of readers upgrade their lingerie game, I’m here to simplify the process. The truth? Only 30% of women wear the correct panty size, according to a 2023 survey by Lingerie Lab Research. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Why Panty Sizing Is So Confusing
Unlike bra sizes, which follow international standards, panty sizes vary wildly between brands—even within the same country. What’s a Medium in one brand might be a Small in another. That’s why relying solely on S/M/L tags is risky. Instead, focus on your actual body measurements.
The Quick-Start Measurement Guide
All you need is a soft measuring tape and two numbers:
- Hip circumference: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
- Waist circumference: Measure at the narrowest part, usually above the belly button.
Once you have those, refer to this universal guide:
| Hip (inches) | Waist (inches) | Standard Panty Size | US Letter Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| 33–35 | 25–27 | Small | S |
| 36–38 | 28–30 | Medium | M |
| 39–41 | 31–33 | Large | L |
| 42–44 | 34–36 | Extra Large | XL |
This chart works as a baseline, but always check brand-specific size charts before buying. For example, Aerie tends to run small, while Victoria’s Secret often fits more generously.
Know Your Cut, Know Your Fit
The style of panty affects sizing too. A Brazilian cut will fit tighter than a bikini, especially if it's designed for seamless wear. If you're between sizes or prefer a looser feel, size up—especially with high-stretch fabrics.
Pro tip: Always try panties on (if possible) and do a ‘squat test’ to check coverage and comfort. If they dig in or slip down when you move, they’re not right.
When in Doubt, Go Digital
Several brands now offer AI-powered size finder tools. Just input your usual jeans size and body type, and they recommend your ideal panty size. Savage X Fenty and ThirdLove report customer satisfaction increases of up to 40% after implementing these tools.
In short: Ditch the guesswork. Measure once, save the numbers, and use them across all future purchases. Your comfort—and confidence—will thank you.
