Panties in American English (typically called knickers in British English) are a form of underwear worn by women. Panties are most often form-fitting, but may also be loose. Typical components include an elastic waistband, a crotch panel to cover the genital area (usually lined with absorbent material such as cotton), and a pair of leg openings that, like the waistband, are often made of elastic. Various materials are used, but are usually chosen to be breathable. While panties were originally designed to cover the entire lower half of the female torso,[1] since the 1970s panties have had either no legs or, in some cases, very short ones, and have become increasingly briefer over time.Terminology In countries such as the United Kingdom (UK), Ireland, Canada, South Africa, and occasionally in other Commonwealth countries such as Australia[2][3] and New Zealand, panties are often referred to as "knickers" or "undies". In Australia, men's underpants are often referred to as "undies".[4] The term is little used in the United States (US) and Canada, where the term "panties" is usually favoured. In the UK, the term "pants" is also used for both men and women's underwear (not to be confused with the North American usage of pants, which refer to what both Americans and the British call "trousers", although this term is also used in some parts of the north-west of England). Styles Panties are classified into various styles based on criteria such as the amount of rear coverage, width at the sides and height at which they are worn. These categories are not necessarily distinct and usage may vary somewhat among brands:[5] Briefs rise to the waist, or just below the navel, and have full coverage in the rear. Classic (or full brief) features sides that extend below the hip. Sometimes these are called "granny panties" by young women. High-cut (or French cut) is designed with sides that are somewhat narrower. Hipsters are worn lower down the body (a lower "rise"), with the waistband around the hips. Control panties (or control briefs) are special and designed to offer support while giving a slimmer appearance. This type usually contains a stretch material such as spandex and may extend above the waist. Boyleg (or boyshorts) are styled after men's boxer briefs and have short legs extending below the crotch. Bikinis sit at hip level, like the Hipsters, but the fabric of the side sections is narrower. With the string bikini type, the side sections disappear altogether and the waistband consists of only string-like material; also, the rear coverage of the bikini is not as concealing as the design of the brief. Bikini is the most widely worn style among women worldwide.[citation needed] Tangas provide a moderate to minimal coverage with back coverage that is more than a thong but narrower than a bikini. And the waistband is reduced to a narrow strip at the sides.[6] Thongs have a waistband similar to tangas, but the rear coverage is mostly cut away. The crotch is extended to the back of the wearer and a narrow strip of fabric fits between the buttocks, becoming wider towards the top. The G-string has just a vertical string at the back connecting crotch to waistband, sometimes featuring a tiny triangle of fabric. Panties are made of a variety of materials and fabrics, including satin, silk, PVC, cotton, nylon, mesh, lace, rawhide, leather, latex, lycra, and polyester. Construction typically consists of two pieces (front and rear) that are joined by seams at the crotch and sides; an additional gusset is often in the crotch, with the waistband and leg-openings made from elastic. Wearing style Though women are often shown wearing panties under a garter belt with stockings, in everything from catalogs to pornography, panties are actually worn over the garters to allow the panties to be easily pulled down or removed without unfastening the garters. If wearing low shapewear, or a girdle, with attached garters, tap pants or panties with side ties may be the only practical options apart from unfastening the garters. When wearing pantyhose or a bodysuit, women may also wear panties underneath. Panties are usually not worn under nightwear or swimwear. History The earliest known use of underwear that resembles modern panties dates back to 4,400 B.C. during the Badari period in Egypt.[7] Statuettes found in Badari tombs show the modern panty as we know it today: triangular in shape with very little cloth around the hips. Most modern cultures have created their own style of underwear, but modern panties closely resemble those that adorn Badarian statuettes. Lingerie are women's undergarments, and may imply their being fashionable and alluring.Lingerie undergarments use flexible, stretchy, sheer, or decorative materials like Lycra, nylon (nylon tricot), polyester, satin, lace, silk and sheer fabric. Certain cotton or synthetic undergarments are also lingerie.Etymology The word lingerie derives from the French word linge, meaning 'linen'. So faire le linge, comes to mean "do the laundry". In French the word lingerie applies to all undergarments for either gender.[citation needed] In English it means women's underwear or nightclothes.[1] Informal usage suggests visually appealing or even erotic clothing. Although most lingerie is designed to be worn by women some men also known as "crossdressers" do in fact wear lingerie. Origins The concept of lingerie as a visually appealing undergarment was developed during the late nineteenth century. Lady Duff-Gordon of Lucile was a pioneer in developing lingerie that freed women from more restrictive corsets. Through the first half of the 20th century, women wore underwear for three primary reasons: to alter their outward shape (first with corsets and later with girdles or bras), for hygienic reasons, or for modesty. Before the invention of crinoline, women's underwear was often very large and bulky. During the late 19th century, corsets became smaller, less bulky and constricting, and were gradually supplanted by the brassiere, first patented in the 20th century by Mary Phelps Jacob. When the First World War broke out, women found themselves filling in men's work roles, creating a demand for more practical undergarments. Manufacturers began to use lighter and more breathable fabrics. As the 20th century progressed, underwear became smaller and more form fitting. In the 1960s, lingerie manufacturers such as Frederick's of Hollywood begin to glamorize lingerie. The lingerie industry expanded in the 21st century with designs that doubled as outerwear. The French refer to this as 'dessous-dessus' which basically means innerwear as outerwear ****  Background: Lodzia Textile Factory was built by the contractor E.A. Weiss in 1923 on behalf of the Berlin & Passovsky Office that served as architects and planners. The factory was one of the first large industrial facilities in Tel Aviv. The founders were Jews from the city of Lodz in Poland and hence the factory’s name. The original factory was a single floor building and the second structure was erected in 1924 next to the original one. Even though the founders were masters of their trade, the factory failed and became profitable only after being purchased by Arie Shenkar in 1925. In the course of time the factory employed more than 140 workers and the production expanded into other products. The year 1929 saw the building of another wing as a third floor of the original structure, executed by architect Hershkowicz. With the establishment of Holon to the south of Tel Aviv, the factory was moved there, to enjoy more spacious location. Since 1935 the factory resides at the entrance to Holon, while the old 3-storey building, built from reddish bricks, still towers along the Nahmani Street.   Project Description: For many years the unusual red structure stood empty and unused, except for occasional utilizations such as art exhibitions or serving as a warehouse. In 2008 it was purchased with the purpose of transforming it into a modern residential building in the eastern part of “Lev Ha-Ir” (City Center in Hebrew) neighborhood. The road toward obtaining the coveted conservation and building permits was far from easy. The building’s designation as bound for conservation is anchored in two urban planning programs (In “Lev Ha-Ir” program the building was declared as building for conservation at level A’, while in the municipal conservation program 2650/b declared it bound for conservation under strict limitations). These declarations secured the conservation of Lodzia House as part of Tel-Aviv’s heritage for future generations. In addition to the obligation to conserve it as it was built in the 1920’s, a strict prohibition was issued regarding any deviation from the original and making any construction additions. These restrictions posed a real planning challenge to the effort to convert the old factory structure dating to the previous century into modern residential apartments matching the requirements of the current law and standards. The realization that any addition of areas essential for the existence of the project can be done only underground, and in totally concealed fashion (according to the demands of the Urban Planning Program and the municipal conservation team), led to the planning of two underground levels across the whole area of the lot and under the conserved structure. The underground level features planned basements that include parking and service areas needed for adequate operation of the building, as well as an independent transformers room matching the demands of the Electric Company. In order to build the underground basements under the historic building a temporary support was planned for the existing structure, using hundreds of steel poles embracing the wall and foundations of the old structure, supported in their turn by special reinforcement walls erected along the perimeter of the lot and further supporting foundations. This method enabled to disconnect the original foundations in order to conduct the digging works and removing thousands tons of sand to create the basement. The external conservation works are scheduled to begin when the underground basements are to be completed and the stability of the historic structure upon these new additions is ensured, parallel to the building of the apartments within the building’s envelope. As a result of the preliminary documentation and research works the building’s façades were planned to resemble the original ones as closely as possible. Conservation demands require application of the original material of red and white silica bricks. We have managed to salvage some of these original bricks and the missing ones would have to be restored through a special process that would enable manufacturing of white bricks similar to the original ones and matching the environmental building standards of our time. Another item requiring matching modern standards is the original factory windows, which are unsuitable for residential apartments, this time in the isolation and sealing. The original steel windows would be restored with utmost precision through matching of all these new demands. All the electromechanical systems required for proper operation of the building (such as elevator motors, water reservoir, heating, electricity room, etc.) were planned to reside in the building’s basements. In the past the roof of the historic building was covered with tin-zinc plates, a fact known to us from the historic photographs and the original planning appearing in the detailed documentation file prepared before the planning. As these zinc tiles cannot be purchased from an industrial producer, they were custom made manually for this project..  ebay4728
