Which brand suits you as a woman

Short answer: For women, the choice mostly comes down to what you need: thin underwear for under close fitting clothes, nightwear in many styles, or a complete basic wardrobe. Different brands cover these three best.

Thin underwear

If your underwear should not show through clothes, the lightest models are right. Thin knickers without bulky seams lie flat under tight trousers and dresses. See Boody and the whole group in bamboo knickers, where all brands sit together so you can compare cut and rise.

Nightwear in many styles

If you are looking for a nightdress or a set, the widest choice is at CCDK. You will find short and long models, so you can choose by season and by how warm you sleep. See them with the other brands in bamboo nightwear for women.

The whole basic wardrobe

If you want underwear, t-shirts and loungewear in the same quality, the wide ranges are the easiest choice. You get the same fabric and colours across product types, and the pieces combine freely. See Copenhagen Bamboo and JBS of Denmark.

Bras without underwire

If what you mainly need is a soft bra, the models are gathered in bamboo bras without underwire. Support comes from the underband and the stretch of the fabric rather than from metal. That means less pressure on the ribs and a bra that is comfortable all day.

Knicker cuts

Knickers come with a high or low rise, such as hipster, tai and brief. A high rise sits calmly under high waisted trousers, while a low rise suits low jeans. Choose by the clothes you wear most often rather than buying many different cuts at once.

For warm nights

If you sleep warm, a thin nightdress or a short sleeved set is often the most comfortable. Bamboo viscose feels smooth on the skin and moves moisture away from the body. For cold nights a long sleeved set works, and many switch between the two by season.

Washing

All the pieces are bamboo viscose and are washed the same way: 40 degrees, no fabric softener and no tumble dryer. Put bras in a laundry bag so the straps do not tangle. Dry on a rack to keep the elastic longer. See the washing guide.

How to get started

Start with knickers and a soft bra, since they are worn for the most hours in a row. Buy one piece first, and add more once you know the cut fits. Then build on with t-shirts and nightwear. See the full range in bamboo clothing for women.

How many you need

Seven pairs of knickers cover a week between washes. For bras, three to four is a good starting point, so one is worn, one is in the wash and one is ready. When identical pieces rotate, the elastic gets time to rest and lasts longer.

Brands can be mixed

You do not need one brand for everything. Many people find their knickers at one brand, their bra at another and their nightwear at a third. As long as the material is the same, everything washes together and combines in daily use.
