Bra style recommendation

Apologies for adding yet another bra related thread to the mix!

I have always been a moulded t shirt bra type of person, usually plunge as i find high middle bits uncomfortable and seem to have narrow shoulders, so some balconettes have meant the straps slid off.

Anyway since having my DS and feeding him for 9 months, I'm finding I am more than a tad deflated and although I seem to be the same size (32E, 32 under and 38.5 over) and my non padded/non moulded bras fit well, I had 2 disturbing looking 'cup dents' peeking out of my top today, where the deflated boob was neglecting to fill the moulded cup, causing it to sit away from my chest.

What I need is a flesh coloured bra, that has some padding to prevent my classes from knowing when I'm cold, and something that will leave a smooth finish.... But im guessing moulded bras are no longer for me. Any ideas ladies?!

TIA

I'm also in Oz so not so easy to of online returns to UK, doh.

Moulded bras are quite difficult for many people to wear as they don't mould to your own shape. It's very common to get gaping at the top of the cup.

On the sizes above you really should be trying a 32F too.

My favourite t-shirt bras are the Cleo Juna and the Panache Idina. The former has a little light padding.

Sorry, meant to say that the Curvy Kate Daily Boost is very popular too.

Ooh lovely, thanks. (Feeling less of a boob freak ;)
I've got some 32fs too, and actually thinking about it, they are in non-moulded, as I was prob trying to fill the moulded bit. (I discovered bravissimo 6years ago when I lived in the UK, and changed from holding my boobs when running down the stairs in an m and s 34B, to actually feeling like I had a shape, makes such a difference!)
Thanks again!
