The fabric is very thin. You would have to wear a tank or cami underneath.  Most women buy tunic like shirts to hide their tummy--this shirt is too short in the front and emphasizes your belly and crotch.  Compared to other similar shirts from different labels, this brand was a big disappointment.  I bought 3 shirts in different colors and they all were too short in front, made with flimsy fabric, and fit tightly in the shoulders and arms.
