Blatant bra strap

Someone I work with routinely has open-backed shirts on with her bra showing. She told me it's trendy.

I dismissed it, because I never like showing bra strap, even with tank tops. If I do, I'm matching the color of the tank so it's not as noticeable and even then, I'm usually wearing a shirt over it. (I don't like the way I look in tanks besides that anyway)

Last week I'm watching the finale of the Real Housewives of NYC and I see Alex wearing a white dress with a plunging back, and with her plain old bra strap showing right in the middle.

Am I out of touch here, is this a thing now?

A dress with a plunging back should never have a visible bra. I'm not aware of that being a trend and I get every fashion mag available. Chat Icon

I'll wear wife beaters and let my bra strap show, but I think that can look sexy sometimes, but that's really my only exception.

Re: Blatant bra strap

I see a lot of people wearing sheer tops with regular bras. I'm not a fan either and I LOVE the tops with crochet or sheer backs, but I still make sure they don't dip low enough in the back to show my bra through.

This bothers me more than bra strap. Its like what is the point, just wear our bra without anything.

Horrendous!

Re: Blatant bra strap

why bother wearing clothes then if your underwear hangs out?

I must be crazy, but I like this dress. It is lingerie inspired and could only be worn to a club or a VERY trendy spit, but I think it's hot. I would wear it to the right venue--nit a Christening or BBQ.
