Looking Sexy in Tee

A t-shirt is aptly named as such because it originally had the shape of the letter T formed by the straight body and the sleeves. In the early 1900s, it was initially meant for the U.S. Navy as undergarments to cover the men’s chest hairs as they put on jumpsuits. Common folks, on the other hand, wore the sleeveless singlet. In the 1930s, tees were made available for the civilians. Years later, the t-shirt was worn by the military as an outer garment, slowly becoming a widely accepted covering for the male’s upper body. The straight shape of the traditional t-shirt and its round neckline was quite non-flattering, it was, nevertheless, comfortable and versatile for layering and casual wear. The t-shirt that we know of today as body-hugging or body-fit tee was popularised by Marlon Brando, deemed as one of the greatest film actors of all time. He wore a form-fitting t-shirt as an outer garment in the film entitled, “A Streetcar Named Desire.” Not long after, Oscar-nominated American actor James Dean and American icon Elvis Presley, donned sexier and tighter t-shirts, elaborating the male torso. Since then, the sexy tee is worn by both male and female who are confident enough to show off their shapes and forms. Among the sexy tees are sport, baby, and modified tees.

Sexy-Looking T-Shirt

Sport tees are quite popular among athletes and health buffs, who prefer those made from dry-fit or quick-dry fabric, making them comfortably cooler and drier even when performing heavy workouts. Fitness tees are also tight but breathable, most often with small holes and are see-through types. The very casual, yet sexy-looking t-shirt is the baby tee, which is basically a small-size t-shirt often worn by ladies because it hugs their bodies, emphasising their busts and shoulders. A baby tee is also shorter in length, thus, making the belly button and abdomen visible when the wearer raises or lifts her or his hand. To show off a really toned abdomen, wearers often prefer the hanging tee or one that is cut so short, the seams fall just below the bust line. There are baby tees and then, there are modified tees. Modified tees are chiefly plain, standard t-shirts with their body length and/or sleeves manually and intentionally cut short, and/or its neckline manually and intentionally widened, thus revealing much skin.
