I am sure you are aware, if you’ve been following lingerie panty trends for the past couple of seasons, that high waisted briefs have come full circle in the underwear world. More specifically, for those who favor a vintage style, granny panties are a thing again. One of the brands, renown for their mutli-offer basic panty business is Shadowline. They have 16 different panty shapes, 11 of which are various interpretations of the brief worn by young girls, moms and their mothers. Many still do.  Shadowline’s underwear business anchors the brand’s volume.
