Bra or Blouse? Anitta's Off-the-Shoulder Top Is the Ultimate Optical Illusion

Anitta is subverting corporate fashion one set of stilettos at a time. On Aug. 14, the singer sat for the season two taping of "Pipoca da Ivete," a Brazilian talk show, in Rio de Janeiro. As the special guest, Anitta delivered a playful take on business-casual attire in an off-the-shoulder blouse and a black miniskirt with a thigh-high slit by Mônot. She styled the sultry spin on workwear with a pair of semi-sheer tights and pointed-toe Christian Louboutin pumps.

Taking inspiration from the typical button-up shirt, the base of Anitta's top featured a baby blue poplin fabric adorned with white pinstripes. The off-the-shoulder design and rolled-up sleeves added a casual element to the ensemble, reminiscent of our favorite business-casual styling tips. The garment also, however, has a bra stitched across the front, creating a surreal inside-out effect. Beneath the black lettuce-trim hem, the blouse also revealed a glimpse at Anitta's rib tattoo. She completed the outfit with gold jewelry, including an 18-karat gold necklace embellished with black diamonds by Animale Oro.

Earlier this month, Anitta further showed off her style savvy in a lace-up outfit during an episode of "Hot Ones." The same week, she showed off her thongkini collection during a romantic beach vacation with her rumored boyfriend, Simone Susinna. Some of her standout looks included a high-waisted bikini by Niya Swim and a thong bikini layered underneath a crochet minidress.
