I have fallen in love with the versatility of my bandeau tops. I don’t exaggerate when I say I wear one every single day—and I know I am not alone. People come into my store all the time asking for “those tube top things.” Bandeau tops (pronounced “band-oh”) are a wardrobe must have for any female. Below is a list of the Top 5 reasons to seek out a bandeau top.
- Under Sheer Tops: Summer is HOT here in the Midwest, so when I am shopping my main focus is finding something breezy. If it’s not sheer, I’m not buying it. Wearing a bandeau top under something sheer is the best way to stay cool, and look cool.
This is a perfect way to wear a bandeau under sheer tops.
- Add a pop of color: Bandeau tops come in literally every color imaginable. I love to find a subtle color in a dress I’m wearing and use a matching color bandeau to make that color scream. For example, I have a beautiful green dress with a multi-colored flower print. When I pop a yellow bandeau, all the yellow colored flowers jump out in the dress. Similarly, I could match my bandeau to some other accessory, such as wearing yellow shoes or earrings.
- Coverage: Worried of a wardrobe malfunction? With a bandeau, you have nothing to fear. Bandeaus are perfect for coverage over a plunging front neckline, or to hide a bra strap in a deep back. Nude bandeaus work best for coverage.
- Alternative to a cami: While camis are great for smoothing underneath a tight shirt, they can be bulky if worn with the wrong shirt. Bandeaus are easy and simple—no tucking in, no sizing issues, no problem.
- Fix a gaping bra: Ever have that weird gap in your t-shirt from your bra underneath? Just wear a bandeau over your bra, and your shirt will sit smoothly without that unattractive triangle outline.
