(in)Humane Fashion by VelvetHeart

The tape-measure zoomed back to Rarity's side as, with a quick flick of her magic, she jotted down her last notes. "Why, Lero, I think you may have gained a bit of mass around the upper arms. You're becoming quite the muscular young stallion." She giggled and turned to the half-naked man in her fitting room. "Don't worry, I'll adjust your coat to-"
The unicorn stopped midsentence, eyes going wide. Lero could almost swear he saw stars in them.
"I finally get it," Rarity whispered, before her voice caught back on, "I finally understand the appeal!"
"What?" Lero couldn't help but ask.
"That bulge!"
"What?!"
Suddenly Rarity was clamping her forelegs to either side of Lero's hips, her nose so close that the human could feel the front of his underwear warm with the heat of her breath. "How the cloth hugs you so intimately, hiding your most masculine feature yet giving such tantalizing hints! It's like the very art of seduction concentrated in cloth form! What were they called agai- ah yes, briefs!"
Rarity dropped down and aimed a forehoof at the stunned human. "Briefs! They'll be the newest stallion fashion, those louts in their Canterlot manors won't even know what hit them! Now shoo, Lero. I need my creative space. You'll have your outfit soon enough. Besides, if my guess of Rainbow Dash' coming state is correct, you won't be wearing much for the next couple of days anyway."

Turns out Rarity was right on the proverbial money, and it was well past the weekend by the time Lero managed to claw his way out of bed to pick up his clothes from the fashionista. On the way there, though... the first time he saw it, Lero did a double-take, the second time the response was just confusion. By the time he arrived at Rarity's boutique, he found himself in a sort of daze.
"Oh Lero! Fantastic news!" Rarity was near-breathless with excitement, "The new briefs fashion has exploded beyond my greatest imaginings, I'm getting orders from stallions everywhere from Appleloosa to Zebraica. With your human underthings and, of course, a large dose of that Rarity flair (let it not be said I am just a copycat), I have conquered the world of stallion fashion!"
"Ah, Rarity flair," Lero deadpanned. "That would explain all the lacy panties."
*Falls over and cackles in glee*
Oh, the stallions get comfort for their junk, the mares swoon after the sight of hidden yet in sight and Lero has to keep from cracking his head open laughing or crying! XD
And I was thinking seeing butts and balls of naked stallions couldn't be any much worse.
I can't blame Lero for letting this slide. After all, explaining that human males don't generally do lace to Rarity is rather like explaining the concept of 'not the right time for a party' to Pinkie Pie.
Okay, I didn't expect that. It cracked me up!
This is . . . quite a turn from the last chapter.
Every Heart's Warming Eve, Lero keeps getting lacy briefs from the rest of the girls.

Can't always keep hammering those feels. The silly stuff needs out too!
Consider it a sharp contrast.

But they never quite figure out why he doesn't wear them in public.

Due to the odd relationship between ponies and socks, it is widely believed to be a risque item only for the bedroom. Along with the lacy briefs Lero also gets thigh high socks and a kilt.
It only lacks somepony to invent the pushup brief.

Give Rarity some time, it's bound to happen.
3443170 Well thank you kindly for that image in my head. Glorious.
Oh Rarity theres a reason I love you so much.
Too funny haha
Reminds me of the quote "Roy Mustang is dead sexy... in a miniskirt!"
