Gap vests - the racer back style ones in black grey and white. They don't over stretch and are not see through.

Boden leggings, hush also good - nice high waist

I love Sweaty Betty vests they last forever are long and their sales are good. I like cos and gap for plain t shirts, jigsaw for long sleeve tops and hush for all of the above. These are the ones that have stayed new looking for as long as possible and that are thickish good quality cotton. Not sure gap is quite as good but they do do very soft things.

I also second Splendid and Vince. It is fairly expensive but I have t-shirts & Vests that are 5+ years old that still look brand new.

I need new vests. I want 3 x white and a navy one. I prefer them to have a bit of lycra and not to be too thick. I want them to be proper vests, not strappy vests. I have a couple of M&S Limited Collection ones and they are superb but they don't have them any more and all M&S vests I've seen lately are vile: too thick, too strappy, too frumpy.

Someone told me Tesco ones are excellent so I bought two, they were only a fiver each but they are vile. Completely unsuitable as layering items.
