Comfort really does start with getting your everyday basics right. Full brief styles are built to give you a secure, comfortable fit, with a bit more coverage around the waist, hips and back than you'd get from a lower cut. At M&S, the Lingerie-Full Brief collection pulls together practical everyday underwear made from soft fabrics, finished with modern touches, and cut in a range of fits so there's something to suit almost any wardrobe. You'll find cotton-rich staples, smooth microfibre pieces, lace detailing, period-friendly options and more supportive designs, all built around different comfort needs.

Full Brief Underwear for Everyday Comfort
Underwear you wear every day shouldn't need constant fiddling or adjusting, it should just feel right from the moment you put it on. That's why M&S full brief underwear comes in fabrics and finishes made for easy, all-day wear. Cotton and cotton-rich fabrics are the go-to for everyday dressing, and if you want something smoother under fitted clothes, the microfibre styles do the job well. A number of designs also come with added stretch and softer waistbands, so the fit moves with you rather than against you.
If you're after a panty for women that you can rely on day in, day out, full-coverage styles are a solid pick for your lingerie drawer. They give you more coverage than a lower-rise cut, without overcomplicating the design.
There's also a bit of variety built in for specific needs. The no VPL microfibre styles are made to sit smoothly under clothing so nothing shows through, while the period full briefs come in a high-rise shape with built-in absorbency for heavier days.

Not every outfit calls for the same underwear, which is why the M&S collection is set up to help you choose based on fabric, finish, rise and how much support you're after.
Full Briefs
When you want a bit more coverage for everyday dressing, full coverage briefs are a comfortable way to get it. Cotton styles are a reliable wardrobe staple, while modal, lace and microfibre versions bring a softer or smoother feel depending on what you're after. M&S also sells multipacks, so topping up your everyday underwear drawer doesn't take much thought.
If you're browsing for ladies full briefs, there's a choice between classic, high-rise and smooth-finish options. And if a simple, everyday silhouette is what you want, a full brief panty gives you dependable coverage without any unnecessary extras.
Shaping Knickers
For outfits that need a bit more support, shaping knickers offer a more structured fit. M&S firm-control styles are built with a high waist, full coverage and multi-panel construction, all working together to smooth out your silhouette under clothing.
They come in handy for body-skimming dresses, skirts or tailored pieces, without sacrificing comfort along the way. Stick with your usual size, but it's worth checking the fit information before you order, just to be sure.
How Full Briefs Should Fit
A good fit should feel secure, not tight. The waistband should sit comfortably against your body without digging in, and the leg openings should stay put without pinching. Around the back, there should be enough coverage that nothing rides up as you move.
When you're picking out women's full underwear, go by your actual waist and hip measurements rather than your usual clothing size, since the two don't always line up. M&S recommends measuring directly on the body, because fit can shift depending on the cut and fabric used.
Want extra coverage? Go for a higher-rise style. If a smoother look under fitted clothing is the priority, lightweight microfibre or no-VPL designs tend to work better.
