Nadia is a QUICK no show underwear in hip sizes 34″-64″. Choose from a thong or cheeky style. Both options have a low, mid and high rise. They are cut on the fold, so only have a back and crotch seam. The crotch and liner seams are all enclosed for comfort and a professional finish. The waist and leg seams are left raw so they are super quick to sew. The no show style is perfect for workout leggings, dresses, work pants and more! Nadia will quickly fill your drawers.
