i want to make a wet tshirt by making it semi transparent so the object behind it would be visible (bra) but due to culling or something else red cube is turning invisible but the red line (which is supposed to be a string) was rendering correctly

Blockbench: Render Order

If you are using textures with semi-transparent pixels (like a colored glass for example), a transparent element may hide an opaque element behind it. In some cases, the renderer can figure out the render order automatically, in other cases it might need some assistance.

In Blockbench: Right click the transparent element, click Transparency Render Order > In Front. This will fix the transparency rendering in Blockbench, but it has no result on the exported file.
In other programs: The render order is typically determined by the transparency property of the material. If possible, create two textures, one for the opaque, and one for the transparent part. Set only the transparent texture to be transparent.
In Minecraft: Move elements with that texture to the bottom of the element list. Additionally, for Bedrock Edition the render order for groups/bones is based on their name (in alphabetical order). PS: In some cases the aforementioned steps won't change the result ingame.
