As
the days get warmer, colorful and fashionable tank tops become
must-haves. Tank tops could be seen at any music show in the 1970s,
generally made from cotton and had slogans or decals on them. The term
tank tops were derived from the tops men wore in swimming pools.
Manufacturers also call them muscle shirts and camisoles. These
beautiful, super-comfortable tank tops are the perfect addition to the
wardrobe, and can be worn casually with jeans or shorts, or dressed up
with a skirt.
A sartorial symbol of women's freedom, tank tops have been incarnated
in spaghetti strap styles and embellished versions such as safety pins,
slogans & concert logos. The most popular, however, still remained
the solid white tank top. Tank tops looks sophisticated and chic, many
flashing a neo-sporty style that plays with classic colors and designs.
Patterns
Check patterns both large and small, diagonal or straight, woven,
printed or knitted are among the favorites with girls. Patterns can also
be combined, as long as they have a common theme. Make sure they are not
overly distinct. For example, choose patterns with complementary colors
or combine ones that faintly resemble one another. Various types of
decorative elements are also used such as embroidery, fur trim, and lots
of riveting.
Colors & Fabrics
The colors of tank tops are generally traditional in white, black,
blue, red, grey, and ecru, but the fabrics used are innovative. In
addition to color, the variety of patterned fabrics used to fabricate
tank tops, set a really new fashion statement. In addition to cotton,
denim, leather imitations, corduroy and woolen fabrics like tweed and
flannel also play a major role.
