The plainest of plain bras in plain land

So, after bra intervention (thank you), I know I am 30E rather than a 34C.

But I am looking for a very plain underwired bra. No hint of frill anywhere. I thought I had bought a couple of the plainest bras but turns out they have tiny scalloped embroidery on the wires and on the straps, which irritates my skin. In terms of style, I do like balconette, but I don't like plunge or t-shirt bras.

Please help as I am still in my plain, non-wired, ill-fitting bras, which make me look saggy. Sad

Triumph super soft.

They are a tad t shirt bra but they have no frills etc and are the most comfy bra I've ever worn. It's all I buy now

Thanks, Chablis but I can't really wear padded bras because I'm quite flat on top, fuller underneath and I end up having a gaping hole, instead of the bra sitting flatly on me, if you know what I mean. Plus, triumph don't seem to do 30E size.

I can't make a proper link as I'm on my phone, but I have the Freya deco half cup in black and nude, also a 30E, I love it.

Fantasie smoothing balconette.

The t shirt bra version is the comfiest bra I owned.

Have a look at the Cleo Juna. It has a drill but it's easy to snip it off.

I also like the Panache Idina. The material is very smooth despite looking like lace.

Sainsbury's have some nice plain ones.

Intimissimi. Fab quality, really plain, wash beautifully. The matching knickers are too pricey ( think tenner each), but the beauty of plain is that m&s does them in packs for much less.

Thanks everyone, I'll look into your suggestions and try to come back with an update!
