What is a "guimpe"?
A guimpe is a short blouse or top that covers the chest and shoulders. It typically features a high neckline and may be made from a variety of materials, including cotton, silk, or lace. Guimpes were originally worn as a modest undergarment to provide coverage and support for the bust, and they were often worn beneath dresses or other garments. In more recent times, guimpes have become a fashionable item in their own right and are sometimes worn as a standalone top, paired with skirts, pants, or shorts. They are popular for their versatility and simplicity, making them suitable for a variety of occasions and styles.
