Target practice

This lady does not deserve to be shot in the back, but if she will insist on appearing at the battlements dressed in this, she is very likely to have some sort of unpleasant missile flung at her by a trebuchet.

I think what worries me about these low-slung t-shirts is that they're so difficult to match with anything.  Your coat must be at least below the length of the shirt, because otherwise you'll look as if you're trailing something.  And a dramatic inset pattern like this must be on show, so a cardigan is out of the question.  What an awkward, awkward garment.

Unless, of course, you're a knight?  Why not wear this as a surcoat over your shiny armour as you prepare to breach a castle or joust the afternoon away?  Gauntlets optional.
