A piece of history
While most women used to wear loose-fitting lingerie that covered as much of their bodies as possible, the trend is for our underwear to become increasingly smaller. The thong has always been popular on South American beaches, but sometime in the 1960s and 1970s, the thong bikini became more widely adopted in Western beach fashion.

Their true popularity didn't arrive until the 1990s, when many female pop stars started wearing thongs as regular underwear. In the 2000s, thongs were one of the fastest-selling types of women's underwear. Today, almost every woman has a pair in her wardrobe.

Because a thong doesn't cover your bottom, is invisible under tight clothing like a fitted dress or tight pants, makes you feel more attractive and confident, or simply because you enjoy wearing one. Whatever your reason, you want to buy a beautiful thong. No problem at Esterella.

In our extensive and spacious collections, we offer a variety of thongs. From seamless thongs to thongs with plenty of lace, and from simple cotton thongs to sexy sheer thongs made of soft fabrics. And much more. Every woman can find the perfect thong and a sexy lingerie set with us.

At Esterella, we offer more than just thongs; you'll also find many other types of briefs in our extensive selection, including Rio briefs, boxer shorts, high-waisted briefs, hip-high briefs, hipsters, and shapewear in all shapes and sizes. You've also come to the right place for accessories, maternity wear, and swimwear.

Everyone's familiar with the thong, of course. A T-shaped brief cut a little higher in the front, with only a small piece of fabric at the back that falls between your buttocks, leaving them completely uncovered. They're the ideal briefs to wear under tighter clothing where you prefer your underwear to be hidden.

High-waisted thongs, low-waisted thongs, tangas, Brazilians, or regular thongs. Which will you choose? We've listed the differences here.

Thong
Instead of very thin straps, a thong has a slightly wider piece of fabric at the back, which also covers your lower stomach, back, and any love handles. A thong is more discreet than the string-only version, which can be quite daring but not always practical.

Low thong
A low-cut thong is cut extra low, making it extra feminine and sexy. Sometimes low-cut thongs are cut at the front in a seductive V-shape.

High string
A high-waisted thong, also known as a shapewear thong or control thong, is sometimes also called a high-waisted thong. Its higher fit and waistline, which sits just above your waist, make it the ideal thong if you want to look a little slimmer thanks to its shaping effect on your stomach and hips.

G-string
The G-string is a minimalist version of a thong. While thongs and thongs still have a bit of fabric above your buttocks, a G-string leaves little to the imagination.

Boxer thong
A boxer thong is a combination of boxer shorts and a thong. It covers about half of your buttocks and has a slightly higher piece of fabric over your stomach and hips.

Brazilian thong
Then there's the Brazilian. A near-thong that falls somewhere between regular underwear and a thong, and strongly resembles a boxer brief. Brazilians are usually cut a little higher in the groin, making your legs appear longer. Brazilian briefs are often finished with beautiful details and lace trim, creating an attractive feminine look. The difference from a boxer brief is that a Brazilian brief falls a little lower.

Strings are sexy and comfortable

Of course, a thong makes you look sexy and flatters your bottom, and it's also incredibly comfortable. Most thongs are seamless, so they don't have any annoying, pinching edges. They're wonderfully soft and wearable under all your favorite outfits. While not everyone finds a thong comfortable to wear, it often takes some getting used to. And as with all other types of lingerie, wearing the right size is important, as is the quality of the fabrics used.

Feeling confident

There's nothing better in life than feeling confident in beautiful lingerie. Many women say they feel just a little bit sexier in a thong than in other underwear.

Practical
Because a thong doesn't create visible lines or show through, it's the ideal undergarment for tighter pants and figure-hugging dresses and skirts. Few things are more relaxing than not having to worry about your underwear and knowing you look good and are wearing a comfortable thong. Also handy: Thongs take up minimal space in your lingerie drawer or suitcase.

Airy lingerie
On warmer days, a thong can be ideal. Less fabric means less sweat and less clingy lingerie.
