Backward Fashion Tops [Edit]

We are all familiar with the “racer back” style, popular in tank tops, and originally from swimsuit styling. Trust the clever designers to flip it, and create an interesting take with the “racer front”.

I think it works quite well on some of these styles, especially in the first delicate Byblos Spring collection. Trend de la Creme put together this collection of images which showcase the look.

Presumably you couldn’t be too well endowed in the chest area to pull off this look, or you might just look a little too much like a Russian weightlifter!

Other designs shown here sporting this trend are courtesy of Louise Goldin, Cynthia Rowley, Krystof Strozyna, Haider Ackermann, and Mason by Michelle Mason.
