Cami Secret: A Fabric Panel That Snaps to Your Bra and Looks Exactly Like a Fabric Panel Snapped to Your Bra
A clip-on cleavage cover that solves a non-problem while creating a new one: the visible edge of a clip-on cleavage cover
The Cami Secret is a rectangular fabric panel with snap closures that attaches to the front of your bra, creating the illusion of a layered camisole underneath your top. The "secret" in Cami Secret is that you're not wearing a full camisole — you're wearing a panel clipped to your bra. The "secret" is also that this secret is immediately visible to anyone who looks, because the panel has edges, and the edges are visible, and visible edges on a chest panel look exactly like a chest panel clipped to a bra rather than a full garment worn underneath.
The infomercial shows women looking distressed at their cleavage in low-cut tops. The solution, according to the infomercial: don't wear a different top, don't wear an actual camisole, don't adjust your wardrobe in any of the thousand ways women have been adjusting wardrobes since clothing was invented. Instead: clip a fabric rectangle to your bra and hope nobody notices the edges.
A camisole costs $8 at Target. A camisole covers your entire torso. A camisole doesn't have visible edges. A camisole is a real garment. The Cami Secret is a fraction of a garment clipped to another garment, pretending to be a third garment, and convincing no one.

Click to Tweet"The Cami Secret's edges are visible under a thin top. The entire point is that it's supposed to look like a camisole underneath. It does not look like a camisole underneath. It looks like a panel clipped to a bra, which is what it is. The 'secret' is not secret. The secret is visible. The Cami Secret is a Cami Obvious. One star."
Maria from Miami, FL — ★☆☆☆☆
"The snaps unsnapped. In public. During lunch. The panel detached from one side and swung open like a tiny fabric door revealing exactly the cleavage it was supposed to conceal. The Cami Secret failed at the one job the Cami Secret had. The secret was out. Literally. One star."
The Verdict
The Cami Secret is a fabric panel that replaces a $8 camisole with a $10 clip-on rectangle that looks like a clip-on rectangle. A camisole does this better because a camisole is a complete garment. The Cami Secret is a garment fragment. We rate it 1 out of 5 real garments.
