Blinded by those headlights

Thank all of the sheer tops in the prefall Valentino collection for this post about dimmers. "Dimmers", also known as breast petals, are round shaped covers fashion models use to cover our nipples with minimum coverage, We've been using plenty of them to avoid shocking the poor buyers into distraction. With silk shirts on trend, this isn't the only client I'm going to need these for. Definitely a must-have for the model bag this season.

They're also of use in your daily life for situations like headlights through thin shirts in the summer or if you're wearing a lacy bra under a sheer shirt. Hollywood (the makers of fashion tape) also offer an adhesive lifting cup if you're feeling a little too saggy without any support underneath.

Most brands are shaped like flower petals but I've seen discs and butterflies as well. They sell silicone options that you can reuse but honestly go for the disposable ones - they're cheaper and more
adhesive. The silicone tends to make an odd shape and is a little heavy, where the paper petals are completely weightless.

Petals are not meant to replace a bra, they are only meant to cover your nipple. If you need a bra for support, please wear one. no one wants to watch your boobs giggle down the street. So you can stop worrying about "headlights" poking through your silks. Unless you're into that.

These are the best I've found. Available online for around $10.
