We imagine that when Dorothy Parker, the queen of witty bon mots, stated that "Brevity is the soul of lingerie," the latter (dominated as it was by lots of big girl cotton bloomers) was still in need of some "brevity." These days, we've got the world's smallest G-string, bottomless panties and the occasional starlet going full-on commando. We wouldn't recommend doing away with underwear altogether. After all, one of the joys of being a woman is dressing and dressing up, starting a well-put-together outfit with a luxe thong and sexy bra. Lingerie makes us feel seductive and powerful, whether we dress for ourselves or undress for a lover. But there's a difference between sexy and vulgar. Our list of Top 10 Sexy Lingerie brands in the world are most definitely the former. We hope you enjoy our panty raid!
