Knit panties are in every woman's wardrobe. They are practical for daily wear, made of strong fabric, wash well and do not wrinkle. But is the knitwear from which this item of underwear is made the same for Russians and French? Let's figure it out together.
Background
Knitted fabric is obtained by interlacing threads that form loops among themselves. Because of this, the products are elastic, stretchable, and soft.
There was a time when knitwear was considered clothing for the poor, and only in the twentieth century did products made from this fabric gain universal recognition thanks to world catwalks.
Meanwhile, history lies in ancient times. Among Egyptian excavations dating back to the 3rd–1st centuries BC. BC, knitted stockings for sandals with a separate big toe were discovered. In museums you can also find other knitwear decorated with Arabic script.
In Europe, knitted stockings were adopted by aristocrats in the 15th–16th centuries.. They first came into fashion at the court of the English queen, and then spread throughout Western Europe. And although such products were practical, except for stockings and lace, the rich people of that time did not wear anything else, still considering this fabric too simple for nobles, leaving it to the commoners.
In Russia, the first knitwear factories began to open only at the end of the 19th century. At the same time, the English socialite appeared in a jersey suit, but other fashionistas did not support her. And only Coco Chanel, already in the 20th century, managed to legalize knitwear products - comfortable, wrinkle-free, and form-fitting to the body.
Knitwear Dior
Nowadays there are many types of knitwear. Dior knitwear includes:
- viscose;
- polyamide;
- elastane.
As you can see, there are synthetic fibers here, but it is almost impossible to distinguish it from natural fabric. Dior knitwear is now produced in South Korea. It stretches perfectly, returning to its original position without problems, and never wrinkles. It can be plain or with patterns. The colors are varied and do not fade during numerous washes.
The texture of the material means that it will adapt to all the curves of the body and hug it nicely. At the same time, the Dior fabric is soft and elastic.
If you stretch such a knitwear, the fibers and loops of the fabric should appear. In this case, you can be sure that this is not a fake.
You should care for your Dior product strictly according to the instructions, setting the correct temperature in the washing machine and using the appropriate detergent. And be sure to use a gentle mode.Some items are not allowed to be ironed, so you need to carefully read the label when purchasing.
Dior knitwear has many more advantages than disadvantages. The advantages include:
- fabric strength;
- ease of care;
- comfort to wear;
- hygroscopicity.
The only downsides that can be noted are its simple appearance, tendency to stretch, and unattractive flow around a full figure.
Knitwear from Voronezh Knitting Manufactory
The Voronezh knitting manufactory dates back to 1939. At first it was a workshop at the Gorpromkombinat. And before the war, the workshop was separated into a separate “Knitting Factory”. When the Germans arrived, the factory premises were completely destroyed, but in 1943 the factory was reborn. Nowadays, the Voronezh Knitting Manufactory is a large enterprise for the production of knitted products, including under the ILI trademark.
The factory produces products that strictly comply with GOST, while the products are environmentally friendly and natural. The knitwear of Voronezh craftsmen is based on natural cotton weaves.
Fabric and products made from it are produced on machines purchased in Germany, Italy and Japan. All products are certified according to the standards of the Russian State Standard. So the manufactory’s collections consist exclusively of high-quality products.
What is the difference?
If we talk about underwear, the difference between panties from Dior and the Voronezh Knitting Manufactory will be significant.
First, the fabric itself: For the French it is still artificial, but for the Russians it is natural.
Secondly, a variety of colors. Dior panties have a full palette of colors, while in Voronezh they stick to the classic white color when sewing underwear.True, sometimes there is a small pattern on a white background. There is one model each in black and blue.
Thirdly, French women, apparently, are not even aware of the existence of pantaloons, whereas in the Russian outback, with long, fierce winters, you simply cannot do without such a toilet item. So in Voronezh they produce as many as five models of panties with a high elastic waist and an elongated style to the middle of the thigh.
Fourthly, among the models presented by the Voronezh manufactory, you will not find panties with a low waistline, tangas or thongs, whereas at Dior they are presented in various modifications and in a wide range of colors.
Fifthly, lace. Some Russian models are decorated with a modest line of lace in the same white color as the panties themselves. Whereas Dior panties have a very wide lace line. Some items of French lingerie are made entirely of exquisite and graceful lace, pleasantly emphasizing the beauty of the female body.
Sixthly, fashionistas, going on a date, will never wear panties from the Voronezh manufactory, despite their practicality and naturalness. But Dior panties can highlight the beauty of a woman’s body, and it may very well be that the fate of a girl in such underwear will be decided positively by the morning.
Having compared both brands of lingerie, we can conclude that every woman’s wardrobe should contain both lingerie from the Voronezh Knitting Manufactory for everyday wear and elegant Dior panties for special occasions.

What was it?
If someone likes their skin to itch under synthetics, then this is a personal choice
and what’s bad about Voronezh underpants?….the author showed only the differences…and there are no disadvantages or advantages…I would like to consider everything in more detail…
A date is just a bed, as in French...
All my life I wore imported panties, a wide variety of styles and fabrics, except for thongs. So they seemed extremely inconvenient to me and crashed into all the intimate areas; the only place for them was in the trash can, where they safely followed.
In my old age I moved to Russia, recently went to the market and saw on the counter some ugly, but neatly sewn, pure cotton panties with a high waist, at a ridiculous price - 50 rubles per piece, made at a factory in Ivanovo.
I took a couple of pieces. They turned out to be very comfortably sewn and fit perfectly on the body, I was very pleased. I wanted to bribe some more, but I couldn’t find it anywhere; only synthetics or stretch cotton were on sale.
There are no severe frosts in Voronezh. Well, maybe once every five years, and even then not for long. In winter it's usually -5-15
and so - cool article)
I am 63 years old. I live in Russia.And all my adult life I have wanted to know the names of those people who invent colors and designs for women's underwear))). I would like to ask him (her): Why do you hate Russian women SO much? Well, it’s a shame to even look at these wild “flowers.” Very rarely, but I go to a public bathhouse (I have no complaints about the bathhouse!), I see grannies there taking off/putting on such panties - it makes my soul sick. I always buy my mother-in-law only plain, high-quality and decent ones - at 85 years old, she has the right to be a real woman. And, of course, I don’t offend myself. Those in the photo (Voronezh) - never and never.
When I was a girl (I’m 45), I didn’t even hear anything about French lingerie. They wore Russian underpants. And they didn’t bother. These are features of Russian life and upbringing. Then, when beauty with lace appeared in stores, I, already married, for a long time could not give up the habit of wearing beautiful, but extremely uncomfortable things. At forty, I started looking for underwear that was beautiful and comfortable at the same time. It’s difficult, I spend a lot of time in the store while I choose. The main amount of underwear is made of cotton, with a high waist, covering the butt as much as possible. Because it’s so comfortable and there’s no desire to constantly correct it. Lace, as they say, is for “going out” to feel like a queen. Self-awareness is so important. But! If I had beautiful lingerie in my youth and the opportunity to show it off, my life would probably have turned out differently. Yes, that's not the main thing. This is just an important detail of us women. Of course, your beloved husband will say that he loves you in pantaloons. And he will look at beautiful lingerie on television and the Internet.
I’m 55. I’ve never worn Dior underwear.and my husband still prefers to look at me rather than at beautiful lingerie on TV... What a strange husband... (just kidding). And I doubt that life would have turned out differently because of the presence of French lingerie in my youth.
I have nothing to do with it...
And when I was young, I had French lingerie. I wore it with pleasure. She was a beauty then and a beauty now in Turkish and Korean lingerie. Voronezh, of course, not yet. But I won’t promise, anything can happen in life.
“The fate of a girl in such underwear will be decided positively by the morning” - thank you, author, for this “pearl.” She laughed.
Dior's panties are for attractiveness, Voronezh's are for life.
The difference is the ELASTIC BAND on the belt. As soon as it is made wide and invisible, everything will be wonderful. .
Author, before writing, you need to study the hardware, as they say! Knitwear is not fabric! It is produced not on machines, but on machines...
I absolutely agree with Tatyana’s opinion! Small polka dot panties make me nauseous too. Okay, in Soviet times, when, according to the State Planning Committee and the State Standard, panties and trousers were produced in flowers and polka dots, and more often in plain pig pink colors. And these were often in short supply! They took what they got. It’s a pity for the wasted raw material – natural cotton.It's a pity for the seamstresses' work! Now, if the factory bought normal high-quality plain knitwear with a beautiful texture (and not the cheap smooth one, painted with flowers, polka dots and Mickey Mouse, I even saw it with crows and magpies) - these parties wouldn’t have a price!
I’m 54, soon to be 55. I haven’t seen Ivanovo panties in stores for a long time. There are tons of Chinese. I wear Chinese ones. They may be from the market, they may be from online stores, they may be counterparts and similar companies, but they are all Chinese. But no, they can be sewn in Indonesia. I choose what is comfortable in height and butt. Cotton. But it’s a shame when you buy in the same place, especially online stores, but some fit perfectly, they wear great, while others don’t even cry, don’t throw them away. Surprisingly, the Chinese are already sewing panties that are more comfortable and have a nicer design than the big factories in Russia - (((And I’ll look for Dior’s on the Internet, I’ll definitely write them down.
If this is an advertisement, then it's cool! I am for natural cotton and domestic producers, although I am not against Dior.
I wear such panties with pleasure in winter, I already caught a cold when I was young. The man is younger than me, and my panties don’t bother him. that he himself wears similar men’s ones - more freely
Why compare this at all? let's compare BMW and Zaporozhets or, for example, the Sterlitamak Shoe Factory and Clarks? What insanity.
A la new marketing for Voronezh panties))) Creativity, spark, madness!
I buy only our Russian panties, and only with an inserted elastic at the waist and cotton processing of the leg openings. And no lace.
An allergy to synthetics leaves no choice.
I can’t even imagine how you can wear synthetics in the heat; you’ll sweat a lot; in winter, synthetics don’t keep you warm. What kind of women's health can we talk about? Therefore, lace panties are perfect for intimate encounters. We wish you all happiness and women's health!
I would also recommend underwear made in Belarus.
hi ladies! Apparently there are no men here))) in general, it’s stupid to wear something that’s harmful to your health! Well, due to my youth (due to sinfulness), I took it with me - so to speak, what if? Well, wear it even more so in winter - ((((and then sick children will be born!
The word “pantaloons” came into Russian from French. And the French aristocrats wore these same pantaloons, as evidenced in literature and fine art. So it is doubtful that the French do not know what pantaloons are. Well, if only about the trousers of the Voronezh knitting factory.
But actually, why Voronezh ones?? I lived in Ulyanovsk from birth and the knitwear there was from the Ulyanovsk knitting factory. And the assortment is typical for the USSR. Surely each regional center had its own knitting factory. On Voronezhskaya the light did not converge like a wedge at all. Voronezh, Smolensk, Cheboksary. There were heaps of panties for our little ladies!! And now, China is our everything... and Dior has not been sewing in France for a long time, but has entrusted the production to the same uncapricious and unproud Chinese... oh, cowards are cowards. And it’s a shame for the state...
