Bloomers

Panties are a kind of underwear. Women's panties are also called "knickers". Other names are underpants ('undies'), briefs and smalls.

Knickers in British English only refers to female panties; in American usage the term is also used for a type of male trousers more properly called "breeches".

Bloomers are panties which are more voluminous (~bigger).
