johnmperry commented on the word tube top
Shoulderless, sleeveless tube-like upper garment which wraps the torso (not reaching higher than the armpits). Normally strapless, so tight over the breasts in order to prevent the garment from falling. Usually this is prevented with elastic or jersey-knit.
