Eyelet Lace Thong in Lilac

About this find

The Eyelet Lace Thong in Lilac from Negative takes a fresh approach to lace. Instead of traditional lace, it is made from a perforated stretch eyelet fabric, cut in a classic low-rise thong shape. This is far from your average thong, and the small openings in the fabric give it a textured look that plain, smooth styles simply do not have.

The color is a soft lilac, a pinky-amethyst tone like a city sky at twilight. It is a gentle shade with a little personality, so it makes a nice pick if you enjoy a bit of color in your underwear drawer. The low-rise cut and eyelet texture work together to keep the look modern and playful.

Here is what it is made from. The main fabric is 94% nylon and 6% spandex, which gives the eyelet some stretch. The gusset has a 100% cotton lining. The thong is also OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, number 23.HCN. 86212 by Hohenstein HTTI, which is reassuring for a piece worn so close to the skin.

Use the sizing guide when you choose, and if you prefer a looser fit, size up. To care for it, machine wash cold and hang dry. Washing it inside a mesh laundry bag keeps the delicate eyelet fabric from catching on other items in the load, so it stays looking fresh wash after wash.
