Product Insights
Chantelle's Soft Stretch Silky High-Waist Classic Hipster Nylon, awarded 2017 Innovation of the Year for pioneering one-size adaptive underwear, is a versatile, invisible-under-clothing hipster made of 80% polyamide and 20% elastane with a cotton gusset, priced at 29 CAD through French design and Chinese manufacturing; it earned a Glamour editor's 15-pair endorsement for its everyday, travel, and workout suitability, but its longevity depends on hand washing and air drying, and the hipster cut may roll during exercise, making it less ideal for high-impact activity.
Verified claims
- Innovation award
- Awarded 2017 Innovation of the Year for pioneering a new category of one-size adaptive underwear.
- Endorsement
- A Glamour lingerie editor bought 15 pairs and eliminated her specialized workout and shaping underwear after testing the Soft Stretch fabric.
- Fit
- 80% polyamide, 20% elastane with cotton gusset, bonded edges, and high-recovery knit for durable XS–XL fit.
- Heritage and value
- Accessible price of 29 CAD achieved by combining French design with Chinese manufacturing.
- Versatility
- Buyers use the briefs for everyday wear and travel, and a Glamour editor found them versatile enough to replace her specialized workout and shaping underwear.
- Travel
- Lightweight, quick-drying fabric makes these briefs ideal for travel; buyers note they dry quickly and feel light and airy.
- Durability
- Hand washing in lukewarm water and air drying flat help preserve elasticity and color; machine washing, bleach, and tumble drying can damage the fibers.
- Size adaptability
- One size fits sizes XS–XL through 360-degree ultra-stretch fabric; if you're between sizes, the fabric should mold comfortably to your shape.
- Roll down
- Some users report the hipster can roll down or not stay at the hips, while others find it stays in place.
- Invisibility
- Buyers confirm the hipster stays invisible under trousers and leggings; the flat seams are designed to prevent visible panty lines under tight skirts.
- Design origin
- Retailers describe the Soft Stretch panty as designed in France; the full brief style 2647 is listed as made in China.
- Breathability
- All-day dryness and comfort from cotton gusset and moisture-wicking nylon.
- Manufacturing origin
- The Soft Stretch full brief (style 2647) is listed as made in China, while the high-cut brief carries a made-in-France designation.
- Long-term value
- Outlasts cheaper alternatives when hand-washed; machine washing or tumble drying can damage elasticity, and some long-term buyers report elastic loss after repeated washing.
- Edge construction
- The hipster uses flat seams and bonded edges at the waistband and leg openings rather than laser-cut edges, which helps it stay smooth and resist visible panty lines.

Buying Guide

No-show underwear under fitted clothes
Customers report these briefs stay invisible under clothing, with raw-cut edges and smooth stretch fabric helping prevent panty lines — including under slim-fit trousers at work. Reviewers also describe the nylon-spandex blend as silky and smooth against the skin so it glides under clothes, though some note the material can lose elasticity after repeated washes. The flat seams are designed for a discreet look under clothing.[3]
Everyday second-skin comfort
Wear these high-waist hipsters as an everyday comfortable basic: the lightweight, seam-free fabric is described by many reviewers as feeling like wearing nothing, even during long days, and the wide stretch band grips without digging. One Reddit user reaches for Chantelle SoftStretch for travel and everyday wear. Reviewers also note the forgiving stretch adapts to postpartum or monthly weight fluctuations without cutting in, though some with curvier hips wished for a tighter anchor, and one found the high-rise band slightly snug at the midsection.[2,3]
Sink-wash underwear for carry-on and backpacking trips
Reviewers reach for this hipster when traveling light — backpacking or sticking to a carry-on — because the nylon is quick-drying, packs flat, and stays fresh for sink-washing on the go. A Reddit user also likes the Chantelle SoftStretch line for both travel and everyday wear.[2,3]
Better suited to low-impact days than workouts
According to customer reviews, this hipster's silky fabric and minimal hold make it prone to slipping down, riding up, or rolling during running or gym sessions, especially on active, curvy frames. Reviewers found it works better on low-impact days, where less movement means less need for adjustment.[3]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Soft Stretch Silky High-Waist Classic Hipster Nylon: Choose this if you want a seamless, high-waist hipster for everyday wear under slim-fitting clothes: reviewers widely report its raw-cut edges and smooth 360-degree stretch fabric (80% polyamide, 20% elastane, with a 100% cotton gusset) stay invisible under clothing, and many describe a lightweight, second-skin feel that holds without digging. Its quick-drying nylon also packs flat, which reviewers find well suited to sink-washing while traveling. Note that some reviewers report the elastic waistband can sag and lose hold with frequent machine washing—especially machine drying—and the slick fabric can slip down during running or gym workouts, so it is better suited to low-impact days.[3,4] | Soft Stretch Silky Classic Brief Nylon: Choose this if you want a seamless, no-show brief under form-fitting work trousers or body-con dresses — customers report the edge-free cut eliminates visible panty lines and the silky, elastic-free fabric stays comfortable through long office days or travel without digging in or riding up, with a 100% cotton gusset. The one-size stretch format works best for mid sizes; wearers above a US size 8 or below size 2 report the fit can be uncomfortably tight or baggy. If you plan to wear it under light or white clothing, note that one customer found the pink shade transparent, so darker or nude shades are a safer pick for the no-show effect.[5,6] | Soft Stretch High-Cut High-Waist Bikini Panty Nylon: Choose this if you want a featherweight, quick-drying nylon panty for hot weather, travel, or all-day wear under form-fitting clothes: reviewers and editors describe the breathable fabric as comfortable, the fused stretch waist and leg openings as lying flat, and the high-cut, high-waist cut as creating a smooth, no-line silhouette. It fits sizes XS to XL, though the one-size stretch slides down and gaps on petite, lean, or smaller builds and may roll on short-waisted wearers, and those in L or XL may find the fabric more sheer than pictured. Also note that even with careful lingerie-bag washing and hang-drying, one reviewer found the fabric lasted only about 6 to 8 months.[1,7,8,9,10] |

Chantelle Soft Stretch high waist brief and hipster praised with a caveat
I own a few pairs of Chantelle Soft Stretch underwear for this reason. My favorite has been the high waist brief, but I’m thinking of getting something with a lower rise this year (probably the hipsters) during the Nordstrom anniversary sale.
