If anyone can bring tighty-whities back, it’sAubrey Plaza.

TheParks and Recreationalum, 40, graced the cover ofV Magazine’s latest issue, stripping down to her briefs for a special holiday digital edition of the magazine.

Her brunette tresses, meanwhile, were styled into a voluminous ‘do, and her brown eyes popped against a smoky eye.

Elsewhere in the cover shoot, theMy Old Assactress ditched the coat, instead rocking nothing but a pair of high-waisted, white underpants and a tan Lacoste blazer — an unusual move for the star, who previouslyrevealed that she usually skips underwear altogether, at least on set.

She teamed the briefs and blazer, both Lacoste, with Christian Louboutin heels and added a touch of sparkle with a subtle glossy lip and Tiffany & Co. jewels.

In another look, she gave the tighty-whities a sporty twist with more Lacoste pieces, swapping the blazer for a fishnet tanktop and the heels for a pair of trainers, which she accessorized with frilly socks.

Another one of the ‘fits saw her leaning even further into the sporty-preppy look with a polo and skirt belt, both white.

The seasonalV Magazineissue also saw the actress rocking both a Lacoste catsuit and bodysuit, which she elevated with a pair of Christian Louboutin pumps.

In the pages of the special issue, Plaza reflected on the year, which saw her step into key roles in coming-of-age flickMy Old Assand Marvel seriesAgatha All Along, as well as Francis Ford Coppola’sMegalopolis.

“I mean, it blows my mind that I’m in a Coppola movie,” she added.

During the interview, theScott Pilgrim vs. the Worldstar expressed discomfort about the way she was sitting — “I’m on fire” — before wondering out loud if her lack of undergarments was to blame. “Maybe I should’ve worn underwear, but I never do,” Plaza toldEW. “And then I get f—ed.”

Doubling down on her no-underpants philosophy, the star said, “I feel like acting is all about … you have to have your body in this weird malleable state,” before telling the outlet and Stella about her on-set “rules.”

“Never have to pee when you’re doing a scene,” the actress explained. “Even if you, a little bit, are like, ‘Maybe I have to pee,’ just get it all out. Just get whatever fluids out. Be like an empty vessel.”

“And if you don’t wear underwear, it can come out faster,” she added. “So don’t ever wear underwear in life.”
