Where can I find a bra like this...

Wasn't sure if style & beauty covered underwear so here goes.

For years I bought my preferred bras from M&S, they were always in a pack of two black & white, black & nude etc. T-shirt bras, full cup, not padded but moulded (if that makes sense), a sort of shiny polyester, viscose material, underwired, the side and back parts the same material with a bit of stretch in them.

Then all of a sudden they stopped selling them and all the 2 packs are cotton... I've had them before and they don't wash well or hold their shape.

Eventually found some suitable replacements from Next in their 'Holly' bras, these were great and I was glad to have finally found a suitable replacement.

Low & behold a year or so later and Next have changed those too. They cup and straps are still fine on the newer ones but the side bands are a sort of mesh material and not the same feel or fit.

So onwards I hunt if anyone has any suggestions. I have tried bras from Matalan, George, John Lewis - none of those are keepers. Actually got a couple from Sainsburys that are ok but more padded than I would like ideally.

Fantasie do a moulded t shirt bra, as do Panache. Might be worth a look at their websites, or John Lewes or House of Fraser as they stock these brands I think.

Thank you for the suggestions, I shall Google and peruse next time I'm near a Tesco.

Yeah the original Next ones were brilliant, possibly better than the M&S ones but then they went and changed the side/back bits!
