A bra showing through your top is not a style mishap anymore. Be it international celebs like socialite Kim Kardashian or singer Rihanna, right on to our Bollywood style divas like Chitrangda Singh, Kangna Ranaut and Alia Bhatt, everyone is pulling off the peek-a-boo bra look with elan. And, with summer round the corner, style experts say the trend is only going to grow bigger this year.

“Pairing a sheer top over a sexy bra is a cool trend. It’s about revealing, but not everything. You look sensuous and are yet covered up,” says designer Gautam Gupta, describing the trend. But it’s also a style that many may not get right. “The show-off should have class, else it may look trashy,” says designer Kapil Arora.



The safe way to wear the trend, say experts, is to pick up a stylish bra and team it with a blousy sheer chiffon, georgette or a lace top. “Make sure that the bra has a perfect fit.



Avoid piling up accessories with this look and let the cool trend grab all the attention,” suggests Gupta.
