[Athletic wear company Champion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/champion-black-edition-fw25) created a new graphic sports bra in [collaboration with HVN](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nikeskims-collection). The new design takes the form of a monochromatic cropped bra that can be worn on its own or under a shirt.

The bra resembles the brand's classic silhouette with a new and modern twist, made from a comfortable and stretchy fabric. The black sports bra features a racerback cut with a crew-cut neckline over the mesh panel sitting on the upper half of the top and a detailed elastic band around the waist. The elastic band has a unique print of leopard and leaf graphics in black and white.

This new graphic sports bra by Champion and HVN creates a relaxed yet modern streetwear look.
