Vintage Panties


History of Panties


Before recent times, women's underwear was made with the primary function of body contortion. In the 1940s, Frederick's of Hollywood opened shop in Hollywood and began selling corsets and lingerie with a much more fashionable appeal to them. These new styles of women's undergarments possessed a greater "sexual feel", made even more glamorized by models such as Bettie Page.

During the 1960s, there was a stir about the old, traditional views of women's undergarments, which some people wanted to look more like females' anatomies. Female anatomy was largely misunderstood due to censorship of the subject. Some feminist women were complaining that traditional women's undergarments were created to impose control and distort the appearance of women's figures. This movement caused many females to have a new outlook on their undergarments. The underpants began to be made more like women's anatomy. (Wikipedia, copyright)
