I bought this bandeau in several colors to wear under low-cut tops for work. I wear one of these at least 2-3 days a week! They are soft, comfortable, and do give light support (I still wear my regular bra under them though). I have worn them in the summer under spaghetti-strap tanks without a bra (although I would not recommend that for larger-chested women--for reference, I am a 36C). No ride up or down at all. I've had them for months, and they have held up well during repeated trips to the washer and dryer.

Another great use is to wear the bandeau around your waist. I've done this for two different reasons. I tried wearing my beandeau over my hips/jeans so that my t-shirt would not show my belly if I raised my arms. It worked like a dream! Much cooler and less bunchy than a tank top underneath. No ride up, comfortable, and it kept my belly under wraps! I also used it this way with a favorite pair of capri pants that are missing the top button of the waist. I wore the bandeau on my waist over the zipper area, and it kept the top of my pants from sticking out under my shirt. I also think this would help with tie-waist pants (because the tie always sticks out under your shirt).

One of my favorite purchases this year!
