When it comes to my underwear, I’m one to keep things simple and low-fuss—very much unlike the rest of my wardrobe. Sure, I have a couple of sexy sets saved for special occasions, but most days, I’m reaching for pieces that are easy and, most importantly, comfortable to wear all day long. That said, I’ve been filling my underwear drawer with nothing but silk as of late.

Here’s the thing: Out of the many materials our bras and underwear can be made from these days, silk is genuinely one of the greatest options. Not only does it have a luxurious feel, but it’s also breathable and boasts moisture-wicking abilities—a must for anything worn right up against the skin. Plus, even in the form of a basic brief or bralette, its silky sheen is undeniably alluring.

Ahead, I rounded up nine of the best silk-underwear brands out there at every price point and style. Keep scrolling to check them out, and shop their greatest hits while you’re at it.

1. Softandwet

Softandwet's exclusive Ssense collection is too good. I don't know how this strappy silk bra hasn't sold out yet.

This ruffled bra is another hit from the collection.

2. Fleur du Mal

Strapless bras aren’t always as pretty as their strappy counterparts, but this silky wonder from Fleur du Mal is stunning.

As is the matching paneled underwear.

3. Uwila Warrior

Uwila Warrior is quite possible the comfiest underwear ever, and it comes in an impressive variety of colors. They’re made from a silk blend, so they offer plenty of stretch, too.

I love the yellow accent lace on this pair.

4. Kiki de Montparnasse 

This balconette bra from French lingerie label Kiki de Montparnasse is appropriately named. It's iconic indeed.

The ruffled lace trim on this thong is everything.

If underwire bras aren’t your thing, this one’s for you.

5. Zara

Leave it to Zara to put out a collection of silk-blend underwear that's beautiful, comfortable, and affordable. This longline bralette is a favorite.

The matching panties are a must, too.

The front tie on this underwire style is a nice touch.

You can’t go wrong with a simple silk thong.

6. I.D. Sarrieri

London-based lingerie house I.D. Sarrieri has a ton of silk-blend offerings, like this baby-pink bralette.

7. Coco de Mer

Another British lingerie label to know is Coco de Mer, the brand behind this absolute stunner of a bra.

I may usually reach for simpler pieces, but I need this.

8. LilySilk

For those who prefer buying underwear in bulk, bedding and sleepwear brand LilySilk offers a six-pack of its silk-and-lace panties for a pretty sweet deal.

These cute high-waisted briefs are also great basics (and a total steal).
