New Lingerie Designed to Emphasize the Derriere

In what may come as a shock to many in the world of lingerie, women are now seeking to turn away from the slimming styles of previous decades and embrace a new look that can only be described as ‘more booty’. Experts are not surprised, given that the general tendency of fashion is to swing from one end of the spectrum to the next, but it has certainly caught many in the fashion magazines off guard and the press is alive with reports of a brand new phenomenon that is now sweeping the United States: padded panties. Oddly, celebrities like Tara Rachel Benson have been spotted wearing these undies along with tight fitting Herve Leger dresses and stiletto heels. The combination is designed to be part of a whole out fit and is seen as a way of celebrating the Booty Pop movement that stars like Jennifer Lopez are known for having created. The panties are made with an insert of egg shaped foam pads designed to plump out the posterior and create an appealing look that is now a large part of the music video and pop culture style in the US.

Confidence is what many wearers of the padded panties have reported they experience in the new garments, saying that they feel a lot more like Beyonce than their generally more slender selves. Girdles appear to be on the way out as a way to emphasize the desired waist to hip ratio and the pads are seen as a new way to compete in a world of fashion that often aims itself at only one type of woman at a time.
