Bandeau, a garment made of a strip of cloth. Today the term refers most frequently to the garment that wraps around a woman's breasts in sporting and bathing costumes dating back to Roman times.

The term is also used to refer to a wimple-like garment in the costumes of nuns, as well as of women of the medieval period.
