The Tie Bra is a neat and simple tie-bra that allows for individual fit adjustments to accommodate various body shapes and needs. The Tie Bra is knit sideways, starting from the back panel behind the left arm, across the bust, and finishing on the right side of the back.

Wear it in the summer with high-waisted jeans or shorts, or layer it over a thin blouse during the colder months.
