Amazon Essentials Womens Slim-Fit Camisole

This is my first Amazon Essentials purchase and I was a little hesitant for moral reasons- but sadly Amazon’s methods of competition work and these camisoles were the best option I found in the colors I wanted. So these are good shirts but also I hate myself a little.That being said: Amazon suggested a size small, but after looking at the size chart and knowing I wanted a more form fitting silhouette I went with an extra small, which is often my usual size. (For reference, I am a 30C, so overall on the smaller side) This was the right choice for me. The shirt length was exactly what I was looking for in this world of cropped everything.The lightest color is slightly sheer, but the others don’t present any problems for me. All the colors seem true to photo and look good in real life.I do wish the fabric was softer. I have some sensory sensitivities and they don’t bother me, but they also aren’t as soft as I was hoping for. Perhaps after a few more washes they will break in a little, but as of right now, I wish they were considerable softer. That is a strict personal preference however, and I don’t think the average person would find them rough or uncomfortable.For anyone worried about straps breaking: I don’t know of any camisole or thin strapped shirt that doesn’t run that risk if you run it through a wash cycle. Amazon suggests hand washing, which is an option, but we all know we aren’t hand washing inexpensive tank tops from Amazon…So laundry bags are necessary. I recommend getting a lot of them and using them for anything that is strappy, lacy, or otherwise delicate. Bras, panties, camisoles, lingerie. I even use them for those little no-show liner socks so that they don’t get lost.Wash in laundry bags, with your bras and underwear, on delicate/hand wash cycles. That means low heat, low (or no) spin. Don’t use fabric softener (or use it infrequently and rinse well) because fabric softener will break down natural fabrics like cotton.Or hand wash (lol)TL;DR: good basic shirts in a variety of colors, morally questionable, hand wash or use a laundry bag on delicate.Edited: I’ve now had these for over two years (and have ordered additional colors) - I’ve experienced no straps breaking on any of the camisoles after countless wears and washes! On some of my most often worn shirts (we are talking sometimes every week sometimes multiple times per week) there has been some slight loss of elasticity in the straps and overall fabric of one. Some of the lighter colors have faded a bit or gotten a little dingy due to the multiple washes (and my slight laziness around color sorting tbh - I just don’t have that many white or light clothes!). I would say that the fabric has softened a bit, but the structure of the shirt means that it’s never going to be that soft Pima cotton or airy/draping bamboo that I basically want everything to feel like and that’s mostly a me problem. Overall over two years later I want to add that I still recommend these shirts, I have personally bought more and yes I still feel guilty about it.I can also say that because there was some (likely pandemic related) color and sizing issues when I bought my second and third sets of these that I can say that for someone who is 5’4”, a 28D/30C, and has a 25-26 inch waist/size two and is therefore a bit on the petite side I definitely prefer the extra small size, especially as I tend to wear them underneath other shirts often. Smalls do fit well however and if you are also in between sizes and unsure I recommend choosing based on fit preference. Because they are stretchy I can also wear a medium, though it’s definitely a looser look and I wouldn’t wear it under another top. A size large is definitely ill-fitting, gapping around the chest and hanging loosely around the ribs, waist, and hips. Because it was such a mess (duplicate colors and an assorted array of sizing) and during such a hectic time I did keep the large and will occasionally wear it tied up with an elastic to make it fit (its the only dark burgundy one that I received and the main color I was looking for!)

I have purshased this in various colors and sizes. Gave the large away. For me the medium and small sizes fit nicely. There is not a gigantic difference in sizes, just prefrence for snugness. Even though snug they are so soft and stretchy and the adjustable straps are nice, no problem with my arm pit area. Yes they are long but can be tucked in or if wearing a longer top over them they work well. They do not provide any lift for my breasts, I like the snug fit and sometimes wear a bra or bralette over them for my comfort, I am at a point in life where comfort is a major goal. Lighter colors you can see nipples but doesn't bother me. I am an active 70 year old, 5'6" 135 lbs, 34-36D bra size.

Not bright white like I thought they would be. More like an off white. They fit nice, true to size. They are a little longer, which I like. They are very comfortable I wear these instead of a bra. They are cotton, so they aren't that shiny material. Overall I would buy them again. Also, they were a good price.

These camisoles are grest. They have substance comfort, wash and dry without any shrinking. I bought many and as my budget allows I will get other colors. I bought the xs, they are close to my size, but I still had to take them in an inch on both sides. They are also long on.me. I am 5 ft and am short waisted ANF very skinny. They are well worth the work I have but into them. The price is very affordable. Check out Amazon essentials before you. Look elsewhere.

I had been looking for undershirts/tanks, since I like to wear something under my shirts. I think these tanks are great and they are super comfortable. They are not super thin and not too thick - I like that they have adjustable straps but these aren't cami's, there's no built in bra. I love the colors and I like they are longer and don't ride up while wearing them.I ordered a size large and I'm 5ft 1 with some chunkiness. I think I would have been good with medium but it's not a big enough deal for me to exchange sizes.

Nice quality but for me the size and fit are off. I normally wear a small top (5'3" and 103 lbs). I ordered medium because I wanted them to fit loose. But the top of the mediums are very tight. I washed before I tried them on so I guess I'll have to give them away.

Oh My Goodness! These fit me PERFECTLY! Nothing ever fits me perfectly but these do! If I could I would order ALL THE COLORS but I am no Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk and must watch my pennies!Absolutely lovely tops. Arm openings are not too big, neckline not too revealing. Wonderful!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! Comfy cozy cotton! Washed perfect, no shrinkage, perfect under shirts or over sports bras to work outside! And a little extra length on the bottom makes it a fun feature over shorts!
