A cami or camisole is a woman's undergarment which covers the top part of the
body. It is sleeveless and tight fitting in contrast to a loose-fitting babydoll
or chemise. The materials of choice in which they are manufactured are satin or
silk.
A camisole can be worn over a brassiere or without one. Some camisoles come
with a built-in underwire bra which eliminates the need for a bra. In modern
times, the camisole has been transformed from simply being an undergarment to
outerwear, with the fabric changing more into cotton based materials.
Some wearers shy away from the outerwear camisole because they fear their bra
straps will be exposed, though of late several celebrities are indicating that
it is fashionable to do so.
