Start with what the Latte colour changes
The Au Naturel Thong in Latte is a light, discreet thong built around a no-visible-pant-line finish. The Latte shade sits close to many skin tones, which makes it a useful choice under light-coloured trousers, summer dresses and anything thin enough to show a darker brief underneath. If you are choosing a thong mainly for invisibility, the colour is part of the function, not just the look.
The rest of the design supports that job: a light and comfortable thong silhouette, discreet finishings and a soft Lyocell blend. This guide walks through what the supplied product information confirms, how to check the fit when it arrives, and how to style and look after it without guessing at details the record does not cover.
What the Au Naturel Thong record confirms
- Au Naturel Thong - Latte: 91% Lyocell, 9% Elastane (exclusive of trims), with a 100% cotton gusset lining. The Lyocell blend is the reason the fabric is described as buttery soft and breathable; the elastane content is what allows the thong to hold its shape. The cotton gusset lining is a separate, non-stretch component, so it is worth checking that it sits flat when you try the thong on.
Au Naturel Thong - Latte - Au Naturel Thong - Latte: Light and comfortable thong silhouette with discreet finishings for a no-VPL look. This is the core promise of the product. It tells you the thong is designed to disappear under clothing rather than to provide shaping or full coverage.
- Au Naturel Thong - Latte: Available in sizes XS, S, M, L, XL and XXL. The size range is broad, but the record does not include a size chart or measurements. Use the size you normally take in Bendon briefs as a starting point and check the fit against the points below.
- Au Naturel Thong - Latte: Style code 37-7765.LATE. Keep this code handy if you want to reorder the same style or check the Latte colourway later; it identifies the exact product.
How to check the fit when it arrives
The supplied information does not include a size chart or garment measurements, so fit has to be judged on the body. Try the thong on over clean underwear first if you prefer, then check these points in order.
- 1. Check the waistband sits flat: The waistband should lie smooth against your skin without digging in or rolling over. If it leaves a deep mark or gaps away from the body, the size is likely wrong.
- 2. Check the gusset lining position: The 100% cotton gusset lining should sit centred and flat. Because it is a separate cotton component in a stretch Lyocell blend, it is the first place a poor fit will show as twisting or bunching.
- 3. Move and sit down: A thong that feels fine standing can shift when you sit. Walk, sit and bend to confirm the back sits comfortably and the front does not pull.
- 4. Test it under the clothes you bought it for: Put the thong on under light-coloured trousers or a thin dress and check in a mirror. The no-VPL finishings are designed for this, but the final check is how it looks under your own clothing.
- 5. Reassess the size if needed: If the waistband digs in, size up; if it gapes or the gusset will not sit flat, size down. The record does not give a recommended fit allowance, so let these checkpoints guide you rather than a number.
Styling the Latte thong for everyday wear
The Au Naturel Thong is a base layer, so styling is mostly about what you wear over it. The Latte colour and no-show finish make it flexible across outfits.
- Under light or thin fabrics: Latte is the obvious pairing for white, cream and pale trousers, skirts and dresses, where a darker thong would show through. The discreet finishings are designed to keep the line invisible.
- Under close-fitting dresses: The light thong silhouette avoids the bulk of a brief under bodycon dresses and skirts. Check the waistband does not create a ridge under very thin fabrics.
- For travel and long days: The soft Lyocell blend and light construction suit days when you want minimal bulk. Pack a spare if you are away overnight, since the record does not confirm quick-dry performance.
- Keeping the colour looking its best: Latte is a light shade, so treat it as you would other light lingerie: the supplied information does not include specific washing instructions, so follow the care label on the garment when it arrives.
Caring for a Lyocell thong: what to follow and what to check
The supplied product record does not include washing temperature, drying or ironing instructions. Rather than invent a routine, use the care label sewn into the garment as the authority. As general practice for a soft Lyocell and elastane blend, many people wash lingerie gently and avoid high heat, but confirm this against the label before you commit.
Two details from the record are worth keeping in mind. First, the 9% elastane is what gives the thong its stretch, and stretch fabrics generally last longer when they are not exposed to high heat. Second, the 100% cotton gusset lining may behave differently from the Lyocell body, so check that it dries fully before storing the thong away. If the label is missing or unclear, contact the store rather than guessing.
What the supplied information does not settle
The record does not include a size chart, garment measurements, a recommended fit allowance, or specific washing and drying instructions. It also does not confirm whether the thong is suitable for high-intensity activity or how quickly it dries. None of this is a criticism of the product; it simply means those decisions should be based on the care label and your own fit check rather than on assumptions.
What the record does confirm is the material composition, the cotton gusset, the no-VPL finishings, the size range and the style code. Those facts are enough to choose the Au Naturel Thong in Latte for its intended job: a light, discreet base layer under light-coloured or close-fitting clothing.
