Panties and lingerie just sound intensely sleazy. Knickers - it's a good solid word.

Panties sounds the worst when someone says it in a sleazy American drawl. Said in an Irish accent it just sounds silly.

Depends on the situation and the garment.
Lingerie? Naughty Knickers!!!!!!
The righteous whities? Panties.
Thongs? well, let's not go there. I've spent too many years keeping stuff OUT of my crack!

'Knickers' or sometimes 'underwear' even though I know the word actually has a more generic meaning.
