No fabrics to clutter up your abode, no mess, and if you don’t like them, you can stop before you buy. If you’re the creative type, always on the look out for more activities, check out these sites for creating your own undies - it’s going to be a fun-packed weekend!

Evlove Design Studio

I’m rather proud of my designs: they’re colourful and contemporary, if not downright snazzy! Ok, so I’m no designer, but you get the idea; at Evlove, you can design a pair of knickers (various styles available), a bralet or even a camisole. The process involves choosing your favoured fabric, be it mesh, lace or modal, and the various trims available, wait 3 weeks, and hey presto, you’ve got yourself undies you can be proud to say you made!
The shorties I designed came to $48, a camisole will set you back $66, and a thong $35.

Dawanda Style Lab

From Belgium comes Dawanda; here you can design to your heart’s content, with an array of products, including jewelery, cards, handbags, and undies. We’re loving the choice of funky fabrics on this site, as you can go a bit more ‘way out’ with your designs; they have a good range of prints to suit different tastes, and you can even select a different print for the front and back with roses or bows to adorn your knick knacks.
The undies are priced at 20 Euros (around $30/£15).

Undiz, Tu Mix Ca Match

Remember those little paper dolls we used to cut out of a book and dress, well, here’s the grown up version! Ok, so at Undiz you’re not strictly designing, but still, you can put together a little ensemble to your liking and see what it looks like before you buy. It is in French, but it’s really not difficult to navigate - just go to ‘menu’ and click on ‘Tu mix, ca match’ and off you go!
