Lingerie for modern people is a part and parcel of everyday life. We cannot do without it for several centuries already. We think that we know everything about our underwear, but still it is not true. Would you like to find out some curious facts about both male and female underwear? So, you are in the right place in the right moment. Enjoy the most amazing facts about underwear below. Here we go.

•    Within the past two decades an average bra size in the U.S. has changed a lot: the former 34B turned into 36C. The tendency is evident.
•    There is a tradition in some countries to wear special underwear on New Year Eve. So, Italians prefer red, Argentineans – pink, and Brazilians – brand new (color is of no importance).
•    The first intimate apparel piece was a loincloth used by cave men. It is the simplest undergarment ever.
•    A little about men and their underwear. Do you know that single men change it twice as rare as married men? I wonder if men agree with the fact.
•    The first bra consisted of two handkerchiefs tied with a ribbon. It was as early as 1913.

•    And some figures now. Over 40 per cent of men prefer briefs. The second place goes to boxer briefs with 27 per cent. Then trunks and boxers follow. And the last in the list is a thong. I think the reason is clear. And 2 per cent remains for other styles.
•    And what about women. Let’s have a look at the figures. The majority of women prefer bikini briefs. Over 35 per cent of respondents gave such an answer. The second place goes to briefs with 23 per cent. Then thongs and boyshorts go. 4 per cent still remains for other styles.
