And no part of me is upset about it.
I started buying Parade undies just over a year ago. I was a couple months single, was thinking about moving home, and we were heading into a global pandemic. So why not order from the wild amount of Instagram ads I had received?
I’m really glad that I did.
Parade undies start at $9 a pair. They’re made of high quality, breathable material with a nice size range (XS-3X), and their size chart is incredibly helpful.
I used to be a Victoria’s Secret only type of buyer. I lived in their bras and underwear. But since their reaction to Savage x Fenty’s fashion show, I was on the hunt for an underwear that was comfy, fit well, and showed love to people of all sizes. Parade dropped their ads on my Instagram, and I gave them my money. And now, they are my daily underwear.
I recommend Parade to everyone I can—I even sent pairs to a couple of my friends for the holidays. I feel strongly about this underwear!
This is a brand that I truly believe in and really enjoy overall.
I’m a midsize gal. I wear between a 10 and 12 in straight sized clothing and an XL in Parade undies. They have a huge range of colors and styles—I’ve tried 4 of the 6 styles and so many colors. I find that they’re beyond comfortable, fit well, and are just fun to put on (the colors, I’m telling you)!
Parade recently announced that they’ll be releasing a barrette and you KNOW I’m waiting to snag one for myself to see how that fits. But as for the products I’ve tried, I love them all.
The boyshort is my go to. It’s a relatively high waisted cut with all but under cheek coverage. I’m a huge fan of this one because it’s comfy with good coverage and still breathable.
Parade’s High Rise is like the boyshort, but with more cheek! There’s less fabric, but it’s still got that high waist (which is how I prefer my undies and pants).
The brief is not my favorite, to be honest. I have only one pair of briefs that I got in my first order—I wanted to try the main underwear styles I had been wearing. I don’t really have many mid/low waisted pants, so I don’t feel comfy wearing undies in those cuts. That being said, I still wear that pair!
Parade’s thong has become a recent love of mine. I usually like some solid coverage, but the thong looks good. I really feel myself when I’m wearing these thongs, and it’s great!
Before I found Parade, I was going sans-underwear almost every day. I hadn’t found cuts that I liked anywhere. So it was easier to just not worry about it. But Parade really came through and made me fall in love. I feel good about the way I look in my Parade undies, and I think they have cuts and colors that suit everyone.
Nobody is perfect though.
There are 2 main issues I have found with Parade Underwear. 1) They could use more sizes. They are pretty inclusive, and I understand that there is difficulty and expenses related to carrying larger sizes, but bodies don’t stop at 3x. And 2) The waistband rolls. I don’t know if it’s the way I’m drying them, or my body type, but I have issue with the waistbands of my pairs folding in. Luckily, it doesn’t affect me when I’m wearing them—I don’t feel or see any issues with it. It’s just visible when I wash and fold them.
Overall, I’m in love with Parade. I think if you’re looking for some new undies, Parade is a great option! You can browse all their looks here, and if you buy, you can use the code “emily-385,” it’ll give you and I $9 off (a free pair)!
