It's no secret that celebrities love pushing boundaries when it comes to fashion, particularly when lingerie is involved. As our regular readers are well aware, we recently reported that It girls Gigi Hadid, Hailey Bieber, and Kendall Jenner have been leading the lingerie-as-outerwear trend by styling corsets in the chicest possible ways, but we've noticed that some daring celebrities are shirking the controversial corset in favor of another, arguably more risqué, item: a bra.
Celebs by like of Kim Kardashian West, Bella Hadid, and Emily Ratajkowski are among the risk-takers currently inspiring us to embrace the lastest lingerie-as-outerwear trend: wearing a bra as a shirt. Whether they're layering a sheer bralette under an oversize blazer or donning an underwire bra under a sheer top, their bold looks are convincing us to show a lot more skin.
