There was a time where camisoles were limited to slips or a means of layering clothing to keep out the winter chills. But as we now-well know with modern fashion trends, clothing items don’t need to have a singular use.
As the foundation to any outfit, camisoles are sold in solid colours, adds a frictionless layer underneath an outfit, has built-in bras and even more feminine designs like lace trimmings.
However, a camisole isn’t to be confused with an ordinary tank top as the former features spaghetti straps, while the latter has wide straps and a tight fitting.
To cut down on your hunt for the perfect camisole, we’ve listed our favourites below.
