The perfect vest top....

[JohnCusacksWife]

....does it exist?? Where can I buy a vest top with enough Lycra so that it doesn't go baggy within an hour of putting it on, isn't cut too low in front, under the arms or at the back and with thick enough straps to cover a bra strap? It appears to be impossible

H and M. Perfect vests IMO, 3.99 I think.

Sainsbury's Tu range - they do some without lycra, but get the lycra ones. I've been wearing them for a few years now and they are just brilliant. Nice and long too.

I agree with bill, H&M. I rebuy every season in black, grey and a variety of colours.

Primark. They're a little inconsistent. Some weeks they're great. Other weeks they're a bit thin. They seem to have a high turnover so its worth checking back.

These are fab. They cover my bra, and are that kind of stretch that you have to pull quite firmly? Come in different colours too

I would always have said H&M but the last one I bought from there has gone really baggy. I also have that matalan one and it's huge! I wanted a long one but that comes down nearly to my knees!!

I'm really tall but yes it's thigh length on me, I sort of gather it up a bit

I like Esprit vests.

I have a nice pink H&M one, guess it would cover bra straps, I use it as a PJ top.

I bought a UNIQLO Airtech vest top with bra support - camisole but they have proper vest tops.
Eye-watering £14.99 but I've recycled my last year Primark Hidden Support ones so I'm hoping this fits the bill.

It seems such a simple thing but I've yet to find the perfect vest! I'll check out the Matalan ones tomorrow as there's a store v near me...although I'm only wee so think it might look more like a dress than a vest!

Uniqlo good, fit well under arms and do not bag. A good range of colours too.

Gap has a good selection and they wear and wash well, much better than H and M.
I've also had some lovely ones from Intimissimi.

H&M, without a doubt, have one on now, a year old, wear at least once a week, still good as new.

I often size down in vests to avoid the sagging you mention. As for showing bra straps - I think it's inevitable with most vests. Let them show and stop worrying.

That site has some lovely things on Quodlibet.

Fat face do a good one, well I'm pleased with it. Longish, not to low I the front and high at the back. Crochet panel at the back of neck. Doesn't show bra straps either. Can't link, but is called "lace back vest" £18.

Gap.

Yy to h&m

By far the best

I disagree. I used to like H&M vests but found better elsewhere. I found them too short and had a tendency to sag.
