Why Fold Panties At All?

Here are some great reasons why you shouldn't just crumple them up:

1. Saves space

Folding underwear neatly can help you save space. Neatly folded underwear take up less room than crumpled or unfolded, allowing you to fit more items in a smaller space.

2. Feeling Organized

Feel good about yourself whenever you look into your organized draw, free of clutter, even when the rest of your life isn’t. It also makes it easier to find the pair you're looking for and saves you time when you are rushing to work or getting dressed for a night out.

3. Prevents wrinkles 

Neatly folded panties or boyshorts are less likely to get wrinkled than crumpled up underwear. This is especially important if you wear leggings that requires a smooth appearance for a low profile.

4. Protects fabric 

Neatly folded underwear can help protect the fabric from wear and tear. One of the reasons why older items develop pilling ( lumps of broken fabric on the surface ) is from abrasion between clothing. Crumpled or thrown in a drawer, it can cause the fabric to stretch or become misshapen over time. Folding them neatly can help maintain the shape and elasticity of the fabric.

5. Easy to pack 

Easier to pack for travel or storage. When your panties are folded neatly, they take up less space in your suitcase or storage container, leaving more room for other items.

How Does Marie Kondo Fold Panties?

Marie Kondo, the Japanese organizing consultant and author, has a unique folding method that she uses for all types of clothing, including panties. Her method involves folding the clothing into a small and uniform shape that stands upright in a drawer. To fold panties using Marie Kondo's method, start by laying them flat on a surface with the waistband facing up. Then, fold the panties in half vertically and then in half horizontally. Finally, fold the panties in thirds so that they stand upright in the drawer.
