The garment (10) includes an outer shell (12) supported about the shoulders of the wearer; the outer shell (12) normally aligns against the inner area of the neckline (26) and the upper breast area, the outer shell hanging freely downward from the breast, such hanging beginning at the upper and middle of the breast of the wearer. The garment (10) also includes an inverted frusto-conical segment (16) having a first radial (18) and a second radial end (20), the first end (18) being narrower than the second end (20), the first end (18) including elastic (22) adapted for the engagement of the torso of the wearer near the top of the rib cage but beneath the bottom of the breast, and the second end defining a hem (24) near the bottom of the rib cage, the hem (24) integrally secured to the lower-most edge of the downwardly hanging portion (14) of the outer shell (12). There is thusly provided a base midriff garment in the nature of a tank-top, particularly suited for athletic activity but which, nonetheless, will preserve the modesty of the wearer.
