Even with their debut collection in Miami, FL in 1987, they quickly became known for a position stated in product terms: that versatile styling and comfortable fit belong in the same garment, rather than being traded off against each other.
Over the years, the brand has evolved to balance women's needs with their wants and to be more reflective of their individual lifestyles. That evolution is visible in the product families, and they organise this whole guide: seamless silhouettes that remain invisible under clothing, lace styles, and cotton pieces that are soft against the skin. Three fabric-and-construction families, three different jobs - under-clothing smoothness, textured styling and everyday cotton comfort - and a sound OnGossamer purchase starts by choosing the family before the individual style.
The seamless family is bought on invisibility and fit: smooth edges, no-show construction under fitted clothing, and a silhouette that stays smooth without digging at band or strap. Check strap adjustment, band firmness and cup construction in hand, and use Apparel Search's bra and underwear glossaries - both in this page's links - for the construction terms before comparing styles. Sizing in this category is measured, not guessed: band and cup sizing follow the wearer's current measurements, and a style that fits in one construction family may size differently in another.
The lace family is bought on workmanship: lace that lies flat, seams finished so textured fabric does not irritate, and elastic that holds its recovery after washing. The cotton family is bought on softness and wash life: cotton pieces are the high-rotation garments of the category, washed more often than almost anything else in a wardrobe, so fabric weight, stitching and elastic survival through repeated gentle washing are the value measures. Across all three families, care labels are working instructions - follow the stated wash method, and the construction the label describes will last as designed.
