The going-out top from the early to mid-aughts received a 2026 makeover for fall. Kendall Jenner, Dua Lipa, Karlie Kloss, and Hailey Bieber have all recently been spotted rocking lace camis—and they're the answer to the age-old question, "what do I wear with jeans?"
The modern camisole emerged in the 19th century as undergarments worn over corsets and petticoats. By the late 1800s and early 1900s, they became widely used by women everywhere and were trimmed with intricate lace.
Because of this, lace trims became synonymous with lingerie throughout the 20th century. In the 90s, these lace-trimmed camisoles and slip dresses transcended underwear as stars began donning them on red carpets and city streets alike.
Now, the underwear-as-outerwear trend remains strong, with celebrities proving that a lace cami is the coolest going-out top of fall 2026.
The lace camis celebrities are wearing in 2026 don't look anything like the layered versions from Limited Too we wore in middle and high school.
Instead, we're seeing lace-trimmed in flowy or A-line silhouettes inspired by the 1920s and Victoria's Secret circa 1990s and modern asymmetrical cuts. Most often, you'll see them in satin or silk lingerie-like fabrics and pretty much every color you could ever want, from pastels to neons.
Dua Lip and Hailey Bieber style them with another 2026 fall trend—slouchy low-slung jeans—while Kendall Jenner wears them with wide-leg trousers and a pashmina draped over her shoulder.
With its v-shaped neckline, this cami has a subtle asymmetrical hem and lace detailing plus adjustable spaghetti straps for a customized fit.
Designed from shiny satin with a body-skimming fit, you can wear this cami on its own or layer it beneath a classic cardigan.
Featuring a perfectly drapey silhouette, this relaxed lace-trimmed cami possesses the comfort and feel of lingerie, only chic enough to leave the house in.
Looking for a modern take on the vintage-inspired style? This cami with adjustable straps delivers with its asymmetrical split hem and bright hue.
The best part about this keyhole cami with a gorgeous lace trim is that you don't have to wear a bra with it because it has built-in removable padding for subtle shape and support.
This mid-length camisole proves that you can never have enough lace. It's trimmed with lace along the scoop neckline, beneath the bust, and along the hem.
The standout feature of this smooth and shiny cami is that it is made from 100% mulberry silk that's machine washable (and a fraction of the cost compared to competitors).
Available in fall-approved chocolate brown, this asymmetrical satin cami looks amazing paired with flared pants, an edgy leather jacket, and matching mules.
Made from soft satin with a light-catching sheen, this empire waist top is giving major vintage vibes.
A flowy, long-line silhouette makes this budget-friendly pick a comfortable yet chic option.
