For many of us, pencil skirts are a fashion go-to, whether as workwear or for a night out on the town. These bottoms are so versatile and easy to style, but sometimes something so simple could go so wrong. No, there’s nothing wrong with pencil skirts, we’re talking about the Visible Panty Line (VPL), people!
Fret not, we’ve got you covered with these nifty tricks to avoid committing the VPL fashion faux pas!
A well known shape wear advocate is none other than “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” star, Kim Kardashian West. West famously flaunts her sexy hips in skin-tight pencil skirts and dresses without any sign of VPL. Her secret? Spanx.
Try donning seamless shape wear to avoid VPLs and as an added plus, your bod would look trimmer and fitter!
Another handy tip to avoid VPLs is opting for skirts made of thicker, more structured material. Try steering clear of sheer fabrics that cling to your curves such as silks, chiffon and lycra to entirely dodge the VPL mistake!

Fortunately, pencil skirts come in all sizes and materials, including denim. Twill woven cloths such as denim are generally sturdier fabrics that could also hide those unwanted panty lines.

Pencil skirts made out of jersey or any other stretchy material can easily be salvaged by being paired with seamless undies! Laser-cut lycra panties are pretty much invisible under any type of fabric and stay perfectly concealed under the tightest of skirts or dresses.
