The underwear is made from stretchy nylon with a breathable cotton lining and boasts good coverage without the risk of visible panty lines.

We have worn Cosabella thongs for years, and this version is one of our favorite seamless styles. Constructed from a form-fitting polyamide material with 20 percent stretch, the thong wraps perfectly around the body without rolling, sliding, or showing through fabric. The high-waist style also feels more supportive and comfortable to wear all day.

Best Hipster

Intimissimi Seamless Supima Cotton Hipster

View on Intimissimi.com

A combination of bikini and boy-short underwear styles, the hipster offers the best of both worlds with good coverage and a slightly cheeky backside. Our top pick for this category is a classic hipster in a no-show, breathable cotton fabric. We love it because it has raw edges that lay flat along the body and won't show up under a form-fitting wedding dress.

Material: Cotton, elastane | Size Range: S–L

Best for a Slip Dress

SKIMS Fits Everybody Micro Thong

View on Skims.com

Slip dresses and underwear can be tricky due to the silky fabric and fit. However, you can achieve a seamless look with the right pair of undies. Our top pick is this SKIMS style designed to act as a second skin (the T-back thong style that goes undetected under slip dresses). The thong also comes in many great colors, including an excellent range of skin tones.

Material: Polyamide, elastane | Size Range: XXS–4XL

Best Period-Friendly

Modibodi ​ Recycled Seamfree Full Brief

View on Modibodi.com

These period-proof briefs from Modibodi are like magic under a wedding gown. Despite their heavy overnight absorbency (equivalent to 3-4 tampons), they disappear under clothing, including tighter-fitting wedding dresses. In addition to their absorbency and seamless style, the underwear is also size-inclusive, ranging from extra small to 6XL.

Material: Recycled nylon, spandex, wool, polyester, polyamide | Size Range: XS–6XL

Best Full-Coverage

Lace can be seamless, too—and we are obsessed with our Her Highness Lace Brief from Bloomers.

These ultra-smooth seamless undies have raw-cut edges that are virtually invisible under even the tightest clothes. Perfect for days when you want to feel like you're wearing nothing, the low-rise, cheeky cut has minimal coverage for your belly and behind.

Material: Polyamide, elastane, cotton | Size Range: XXS–XXL

What to Look for in Seamless Underwear

• Comfort: You'll want to ensure the seamless underwear for brides you choose is comfortable. That means no tugging, snagging, or pinching when you move. Order several underwear styles before the wedding, allowing enough time to test them out.
• Dress Compatibility: After finding the most comfortable seamless underwear for brides, you'll want to ensure your selected style is compatible with your dress. Seamless underwear is essential if your dress is form-fitting or made of a clinging material, like silk. If you're wearing a slinky gown or something with a tighter fit, you might want a pair of seamless underwear with extra support. But if you're wearing a slip dress, seamless underwear for brides with less fabric might be better, like a thong. Brides rocking a two-piece ensemble may want a low-rise seamless underwear style.
