What is the best type of brief/trunk to wear under a velvet gymnastics leotard?

Posted on July 14, 2009 by admin

Hello! I am a 12 year old girl gymnast from Australia. I am competing this year with a black velvet long sleeve leotard. I was wondering what is the best type of brief/trunk to wear underneath a velvet leotard? Cotton or nylon? Somebody told me nylon but that was under a lycra/nylon leotard. So I was wondering what the best type of brief/trunk is, that I could wear under a velvet leotard and have it not showing! Please answer!

I hate this problem because then you get worried if your underwear is showing but the solution for me is wearing Victoria secret string bikini underwear or Gk makes briefs just for leotards and I use those for competition and don’t have a problem and for practice I wear an string bikini underwear
And many places sell that kind of the string bikini underwear.
Hope this helps you!! also nylon works the best because its smooth and won’t get bunched up as much as cotton would!!

    A thong wouldn’t show at all. Nor would wearing no underwear, but i don’t like doing that.

    Girl boxers are good because they go across your hips and thighs and blend in with the material creases.

    I would go with nylon if i were you, stick with cotton or lycra. (:

    Hope ive helped!

    Definitely Nylon it is seamless and very smooth and can go under any leotard.And the cotton would pick up pieces of the velvet.
