The Bra Brigade: How to Flaunt Yours Like a Snob
By Couture Snob Tina
May 7, 2012

The Aussies have a delightfully irreverent way with fashion and an quirky take on the high-low mix. The girls Down Under also know how to flaunt what they’ve got up top – without showing off all the goods. With Australian Fashion Week in full swing, Tommy Ton snapped up a handful of hotties who show us how to exhibit their bras with style, not sleaze.

How to work the look for yourself? First, choose a bra that looks like it’s intended to be seen (no smoothing Calvin Klein cups!), like one of T by Alexander Wang’s sporty staples with a boyish T, sans sleeves (buy it a couple sizes too big for a casual, anti-fitted look). Or do a more approachable spin on a racy, lacy number – try Stella McCartney’s floral-print as a less lingerie-heavy alternative – with a shock of leather. And the very bold might spring for wearing their full-coverage bra, like VPL’s insertion, as a top! With a sweet cardigan and wildly print pencil skirt, it’s almost even ladylike. Almost…
