There’s a myriad of styles to choose from when it comes to women’s panties. Which is awesome, but sometimes it means deciding the best fit for you can feel daunting! From going full cheeky in a teeny thong, to chilling in a bikini, to lounging in full coverage boy shorts underwear, there’s a perfect option for everyone, no matter your preference.

If you’re in search of coverage that falls somewhere in the middle, you’re in the market for cheeky panties. Still, you’re probably stuck scratching your head, trying to choose between the two most popular cheeky styles: hipster vs bikini underwear. You might even be wondering… what exactly is the difference between hipster and bikini? Or to begin with, what are cheeky panties anyway?

Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered (no pun intended)! While both of these styles are pretty versatile and very comfortable, there are a few key differences between hipster panties and bikini underwear that will determine which one is the best choice for you. 

 

FIRST OF ALL, WHAT ARE CHEEKY PANTIES EXACTLY?

Unlike thongs, which showcase everything you’ve got going on back there, or boy shorts, which keep your bum entirely covered, cheeky panties fall in the flirty middle. They’re basically the perfect balance between sexy and comfy, revealing just the right amount of cheek. Can it get any better than that?

Okay, so now let’s talk about what sets these two styles apart from one another so you can decide which is the better fit for your lifestyle and personal preferences.

BIKINI PANTIES SIT LOWER AND OFFER SLIGHTLY LESS COVERAGE

Right off the bat, one major difference between bikini vs hipster underwear is how it sits on the body. Bikini styles sit just below the hip, showing a bit more of the abdomen. While they naturally sit pretty low, they can be adjusted to sit a little higher on the sides depending on your desired cheekiness.

Bikini underwear also sets itself apart from hipsters by the width of its side cut. Bikini styles have less fabric around the sides compared to hipsters’ wider side cut of fabric. The leg opening cut on a bikini is also higher. This can make bikini panties slightly more cheeky as there’s less fabric overall.

Bikini panties are a great choice no matter what outfit you’re wearing or what your day looks like. With the perfect amount of cheekiness, you won’t have panty lines or have to worry about discomfort throughout the day.

So what’s different about hipsters, then? While they’re also a style that offers medium coverage, there are a few factors that set them apart from the way a bikini style fits. So when it comes to hipster vs bikini underwear, there’s a good chance hipsters are the choice for you if you’re not crazy about panties with little side or frontal coverage.

HIPSTER PANTIES HAVE A WIDER SIDE LENGTH OF FABRIC AND SIT HIGHER

While essentially just as cheeky as bikini panties, hipsters do offer more coverage overall. That’s because they have more coverage in the front compared to bikinis, allowing the hipster fit to sit a bit higher on the body, falling perfectly at the hipbone.

Hipsters fall between bikinis and boy shorts on the panty-coverage spectrum. While still cheeky, the higher fit and increased frontal coverage you’ll feel a bit more covered than you would while wearing our bikini-style underwear. Don’t worry though, they’re still super comfy and definitely sexy.

Hipsters are the perfect choice for those who prefer a naturally higher-fitting style. If you’re a fan of tight skirts or dresses and want your underwear to fit seamlessly underneath, hipsters are your best bet.

CONCLUSION

When making the decision between bikini vs hipster underwear, both options are great for active days or relaxing in leisure. The difference between hipster and bikini really comes down to the hip coverage you prefer, as well as the amount of cheekiness factor you’re looking for.

Choose hipster underwear if:

• You prefer more fabric on the hip
• You want more frontal coverage
• You’re looking for a little less cheekiness

Chose bikini underwear if:

• You prefer less fabric on the hip
• You don’t want as much frontal coverage
• You’re looking for a little extra cheekiness
