Gigi Hadid's Tank Top Is the Answer to a Sexy, No-Frills, Braless Look in the Summer

There's a difference between Gigi Hadid's leggy red carpet looks and her effortless street style, though both are equally sexy. When she stepped out with friends in NYC for a shopping trip in the Summer heat, she showed us why her casual outfits are exactly what we should be looking to re-create.

Gigi breathed new life into the braless "trend," if you will, opting for a ribbed tank top so thin and distressed, we'd be scared to throw it into the washing machine. But rather than baring too much skin, Gigi covered up with a lightweight printed AllSaints shirt ($91) (could it be one of Zayn Malik's?) and balanced her ensemble with white high-waisted denim, patent backless loafers, and a bag with a scrunchie top handle.

In our opinion, this is the perfect combination for testing out the waters if you've been thinking about ditching a bra. It's stylish, not racy, trend-driven, not statement-making or jaw-dropping, and downright comfortable. Read on to see why starting with this basic tank is the way to go — we even found a handful of options for you.
