vests with poppers for wearing under summer dresses

I bought DD some sleeveless vests from M&S but when i put one on her under her summer party dress, the shoulder strap is much too wide and the neck comes up too high.

Has anyone found a suitable popper vest please for while it's not quite warm enough to go without?

TIA

No I never found one but that was 5 years ago! Used to put a cardi on her!

How old is your dd? www1.vertbaudet.co.uk/cgi-bin/Vertbaudet.storefront/44591730001ea5cc277b0a0b003205cf/Product/View/3786055

What about these? They are lower-necked than most, vertbaudet stuff tends to be snugger-fitting than UK brands.

Hmm, link didn't work, but check out their site if you're interested.

DD has some sleeveless vests (used to be DS's but only 2 summers ago) from Woolies and Mothercare, that seem to be OK under sleeveless dresses.

Or I go for the cardie route :)

Tesco do sleeveless vests that fit underneath dd's summer dresses. They're only about £2 -£3 for 3.

I've got the tesco ones Olihan (very good value aren't they?) but i still find the straps on them are too wide for some of DD's dresses.

Could she wear non-popper vests? The more grown-up vests often have thinner straps.

I put BabyDragon in a short sleeved one. Looks like she's wearing a T-shirt underneath. But she's only 3 months.
