Second-Skin Wide Straps Cami
This fitted camisole has wide shoulder straps and a scoop neckline, crafted from double-layer soft stretch microfibre jersey for an opaque, body-shaping fit. It serves as a smooth base layer for layering or standalone wear, with a matte finish and semi-fitted silhouette that tapers at the waist and falls to the hips. The fabric is a stretch microfibre jersey with a straight hem.

Product Insights
The Second-Skin Wide Straps Cami from Contemporaine (39 CAD, in stock) is made from 94% reprocessed polyamide, offering a silkier and cooler handfeel than polyester microfibre, with a double layer that adds body without restriction. It provides moderate compression, four-way stretch with good recovery, and pilling resistance, allowing use as a base layer under low-cut tops or standalone. The main tradeoffs involve opacity—lighter colors may become sheer under bright light or stretch—and required care: avoid fabric softener, bleach, and tumble drying to preserve elasticity and moisture-wicking ability.
Verified claims
- Care
- Spandex degrades above 60°C; use a steamer and air-dry to preserve elasticity.
- Chemical avoidance
- Avoid fabric softener and bleach to maintain fiber performance and shape.
- Opacity
- Off White and Sand may become sheer under bright light or stretch; darker colors are opaque.
- Sizing
- Order usual size for fitted look; size up for less snug.
- Fabric feel
- Reprocessed polyamide feels silkier and cooler than polyester microfibre.
- Fabric handfeel
- The recycled polyamide microfibre feels as silky as virgin nylon, with a double layer that adds body without restriction.
- Breathability
- Microfibre fabric breathes through microscopic yarn gaps, but fabric softener reduces moisture-wicking by up to 50%.
- Recycled content
- 94% reprocessed polyamide (recycled nylon) is molecularly identical to virgin nylon, with a silkier, cooler handfeel than polyester microfibre.
- Pilling resistance
- Nylon microfibre resists pilling, keeping the cami's sleek appearance longer.
- Layering
- Double-layer opacity and wide straps allow the cami to be worn as a base layer under low-cut tops or as a standalone top.
- Fit and shape
- The body-shaping fabric is moderately compressive with 4-way stretch; sizing up reduces snugness.
- Stretch recovery
- Fabric stretches four ways and recovers its shape after each wear.
- Heat degradation
- Tumble drying causes progressive, irreversible damage to stretch recovery.
- Compression fit
- Moderate compression fabric fits as intended at usual size; sizing up reduces the snug fit.

Belle tenue, confection et design réussis
Classic top
Beautiful quality. Doubled so maybe heavy for the hot weather. Great layering piece though.
Superbe
confortable, souple et très belle qualité. J’ai fait venir un autre couleur.
Un must!
OMG, incroyable. . . tout le monde devrais avoir ceci comme base. Parfait sous un veston propre ou avec un jeans. J'ai acheté en magasin un ballon et me suis dé. pêchée à en acheté un noir en ligne après. Je porte entre le M-L dans mes tops et le L épouse bien mon corps sans être trop serré.
Matériel très soyeux
Cette camisole me va comme un gant. La couleur (vert pomme) est très belle.
Too clingy at the waist
It was a nice fit up top. I thought it would be looser below the bust, but it gathers up at the waist if you're curvy. Maybe a size up would help?? I don't like to fuss with my clothes. So, I'm passing it on.
Bien
Belle couleur. Tissu épais, en double.
Trop court
Beau tissu et belle coupe, mais trop court.
très confortable, tient bien en place
belle qualité, excellent.
Not great
The layered fabric is heavy and the colour is quite dull when you see it in person. Prone to lots of static shocks and shorter than I expected.

Fit is great, soft to the touch and covers bra straps well.
