Answers to the questions shoppers ask most about the Leonie High Cut Brief: how the high cut shape fits, what the lace and cotton gusset feel like, and how to style it.

How should a high cut brief fit?

How should a high cut brief fit?
A high cut brief should sit high at the waist and high at the leg, which is exactly how the Leonie High Cut Brief is designed. The waistband should rest comfortably without digging in, and the leg openings should feel secure but not tight. Because the cut is high at the leg, the brief naturally elongates the appearance of the leg. If you are between sizes, consider whether you prefer a closer fit or a little more room, and check the size options available: S, M, L and XL.
What does the Leonie High Cut Brief feel like to wear?
The main fabric is a stretch lace blend of 87% polyamide and 13% elastane, so it has give and recovery. The textured allover lace gives a retro look, and the exaggerated scallop elastic adds a decorative edge. The gusset is lined with 100% cotton, which is a practical choice for everyday comfort. The brief is designed for comfortable all-day wear.
How do I choose the right size in the Leonie High Cut Brief?
The Leonie High Cut Brief comes in sizes S, M, L and XL. Because the fabric contains elastane, it will stretch to fit, but the waistband and leg elastic should not feel restrictive. If your measurements fall between two sizes, think about whether you prefer a snug or relaxed fit. There is no size chart in the supplied information, so use your usual brief size as a starting point and adjust based on how you like the fit.
What is the best way to style a high cut brief?
The high cut shape and bold 'Surf the Web' colour make the Leonie brief a statement piece. Wear it under high-waisted trousers or skirts where the waistband won't show, or let it peek out as part of a layered look. The retro lace and scallop elastic work well with simple, solid-coloured clothing so the brief stands out. For everyday wear, pair it with your usual outfits; the cotton gusset and all-day comfort design make it suitable for daily use.
How should I care for the Leonie High Cut Brief?
The supplied product information does not include specific care instructions. As with any lace lingerie, a gentle approach is wise: hand wash or use a lingerie bag on a delicate cycle, and avoid harsh detergents. Always check the care label on the garment for the manufacturer's guidance.
Is the Leonie High Cut Brief good for everyday wear?
Yes, the brief is designed for comfortable all-day wear. The cotton gusset adds breathability, and the stretch lace moves with you. The high cut leg gives freedom of movement, while the waist sits high for a secure feel. If you prefer a more minimal brief, you might find the lace and scallop elastic too decorative, but for those who enjoy retro styling, it works well for daily wear.
