The camisole has been around for centuries. Originally, a camisole was worn to keep sweat away from clothing, and it was worn to add a clothing layer for warmth. It was generally made of muslin. Today, the camisole still serves those two purposes – but functional has turned into oh-so-much more.
In stores, you can find a stunning silk camisole, or ones made of cotton, nylon and blends that have Lycra in them. The designs have expanded so that you can find ones to fit and flatter most any body type.
More than that, though, camisoles and silk chemises can be extremely sexy. Many camisoles and chemises have adjustable narrow straps and built-in bras, also known as “shelves, for women whose busts need lift and shaping. The necklines can vary from V-neck to scoop so that camisoles are perfect under any type of clothing.
