Black and white underwear have always been classic staples; lately, underwear brands have been introducing innovative styles to add visual interest without using color. If these new pairs prove anything, it’s that you don’t need color to have fun or to look, well, pretty much amazing.
We rounded up some of our recent takes on black and white underwear for a photo spread shot exclusively for The Underwear Expert by Aydin Arjomand. Our favorite black and white designs make interesting use of seam placement, fabric layering, and even buttons. Some of these brands pay particular attention to waistband design as a canvas for subtle embellishments. In stark colors like black and white, all these details really stand out and make a bigger statement than they might in underwear made from more colorful fabrics.
Have any black and white go-to pairs of your own? Let us know! We also have a feeling you might find some new favorites after looking at the full photo shoot below.
