French Knickers are a type of lingerie, which became popular to wear during the mid to late 1800's. The term "knickers," describes the type of undergarment it is, and the word French tells you what style the knickers are cut in. Of course, we are describing the lingerie style of knickers here, and not the Golfer's knickers pants, sported by athletic golfers playing the sport, at a country club somewhere, around the turn of the twentieth century. The term knickers was the generalized name for underwear, swim wear and athletic wear back then. Most knickers strapped together at the hips like any other pants, and it would then cover the body just above the knees.

When it came to underwear, most men and women wore the loose fitting knickers styles and not the elastic, gathered-ruffle, style. Like they are seen in the movies. For one they were too hot, and for another, poor people could not afford the extra material it took to gather the material together at the knees, let alone two legs worth of extra cotton, linen or wool. Wool being the preferred choice because it lasted longer.

As per the knickers patterns then, it generally takes additional yard of material, to make a person's knickers gather together at the knees. Not very many people could afford such a luxury back then as another full yard of anything. Let alone extra fabric for underwear. What separated French knickers from the others is that they were cut much shorter than regular knickers, and were often patterned to be cut off at the upper thigh, and so, the hem line was somewhere across thigh and not at the knees. This allowed more skin to be seen, than any of the other undergarments did back then; and so it was, often shown off by women at establishments such as; the Moulin Rouge Burlesque Show in Paris, France (hence, how they got the name), and eventually at CanCan shows to whore houses of the Wild Wild West.

What makes French knickers so popular these days, is it's naughty appeal. French knickers give the body an air of taste and nothing says, "girl good gone bad" like a pair of see-through, lace, French knickers. When French knickers adorn dainty, slightly-tucked, ruffles on the bottom half, a woman is telling her lover that she's feeling extra "playful" tonight. The great thing to know nowadays about French knickers, as with most lingerie, they can be purchased in a wide range of fabrics, featuring a wide variety of colors and patterns to choose from.

Long gone, are the days when knickers were strictly made out of wool, cotton or linen, and made only in the dull, drab colors of white and beige. Even when a woman is to busy to go shopping for herself, and has to buy her new French knickers online, the different fabric options is endless. She will have no troubles finding the right pair in her favorite nylon, silk, lace, or organic cotton fabrics. Unlike the French knickers of yesteryear, today's French panties can be bought in bikini bottom cuts to the boy-short styles. As for myself, I would have to say that my winning favorites usually come in the bikini bottom cut and style. Just like the one seen in the above picture.
