Crotchless, seamless or backless they have become extremely popular. In the beginning of the 90s these pieces of clothes reached the top of their popularity – a piece of fabric of a tempting V-shape at the back. They are called thong, or tanga (Brazilian variant) and offer much sexuality and attractiveness.
Thong's successors include the bikini, boyleg, G-string, brief, and high rise cut. No matter, what men's magazines tell, probably each young woman has a few thongs in her wardrobe nowadays. Modern women continue purchasing extremely sexy G-strings but today they do it more for comfort. Boylegs are very popular on the contemporary life, especially the seamless variant.

Full coverage seamless boy shorts are of great demand among women of all ages as all of them wish to solve the visible panty line problem. Have you watched Sex and the City's when Carrie was walking around her flat in boyish Y-fronts, Bridget Jones's granny pants and Cameron Diaz's boy shorts in Charlie's Angels?
But what is so special about a thong? A small piece of fabric, what else? But it often costs much money. In the early nineties, the lacy skivvies were extremely popular. It was Sisqo who produced the impressive 'Thong Song' in 2000. This very year Britney Spears sang her song 'Oops… I did it again' and its clip showed up her wearing low rise jeans and high rise thong. This made millions of girls of the world want the same ones. And in two years a collection of 123 million thongs was sold in the USA, that was two times more than in 1998. American retail company Abercrombe and Fitch produced a line of thongs specially designed for 10 – 16 year old girls.
This year, online store has reported that with respect to political merchandise, pro Barack Obama thongs are ahead in sales. And Hilary Clinton is involved in business of men's boxer sales. Maybe it's Christina Aguilera who is to blame? Just recollect her Dirty music video released in 2002 that showed the singer wearing a boxing ring wearing cowboy leather chaps minus the crotch bit. And in 2007 Christina Aguilera sang 'Still Dirty', and promised to be dirty even at 60.
Thongs are really wonderful pieces of clothing but they fit not everyone. Remember Jimmy Fallon sang in his Sisqo spoof 'Please don't wear that Thong: It shows off ya belly roll…'
The Future Of Thong
Although the thong isn't as popular today as it used to be when it first appeared on the shelves, it seems to stay here forever. It's important to mention that it has undergone many changes in its style and design and the contemporary thong looks very much the same as it used to in the early 90s. In 2004 an Australian invention was founded. It's called the backless thong. Unlike the traditional thong, while the back straps fit under the crease of the cheeks and the side strings are fixed like bra straps around the hips.
There's also the Cstring, one side of which has a gusset and the other a string. And there're no straps around the hips. It demonstrates no panty line as it has none. Attend Cstringdirect's website and see it yourself.
