The Full Story

It's ultra comfortable, quietly flattering and a little bit vintage, now in fall's Dark Pomegranate, Plum and Hot Teal.

Good to know
What does one size fits most mean?
The stretch lace adapts to your body instead of the other way around. Check the size and hip range above for the best fit.
Is it different from the Signature Lace thongs?
Yes. The Retro uses Hanky Panky's stretchy retro lace and a wide, high-waisted band, so it gives a little more coverage and a gentle smoothing hug.
Can I return underwear?
For hygiene reasons, all underwear is final sale.
