The 'T' bra by Alexander Wang will make you wish that this underwear piece was a publicly acceptable shirt (and for some creative dressers, it can be). With a touch of detail in its seam structure, the [unpretentious undergarment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stripe-stare-bra-shop) is a charming addition to your concealed (or revealed) wardrobe.

The [clean V-shaped front allows for layering](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comfortable-seamless-bras) with plunging necklines, and the X-shaped cross of the straps at the back allow it to accommodate racerback shirts. But if you're more interested in showing off you 'T' bra, it can be showcased with a baggy singlet, a vest, or a [sexy see-through tank](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airism-bra-camisole).
