Non wired, padded t-shirt bras (in colours other than black, white or nude)

[Petal02]

They're so hard to find! M&S aren't doing them in any nice colours at present, and I can't see them anywhere else. In a 34D. Any ideas?

[SorrelForbes]

But that's almost definitely due to the cup being too small and 'stealing' material from the band. I find a 34DD feels very uncomfortable but a 30GG is fine.

What are your under and across measurements?

[Petal02]

If I wear anything smaller than a 34" band size, then either I can't breathe or I can't fasten it!

I just prefer non wired.

Hi Petal, I used to feel like this but I am a recent convert to the Mumsnet proper measuring and fitting advice . There is advice here on how to recognise a bra is not right for you and how to measure correctly (if you have been measured in M&S you have probably been measured incorrectly)

I don't have much flesh on my rib cage and struggle to wear a wired bra for more than a few hours.

Ummm, yes that's what I meant to type . I can't quite imagine wearing a non world bra!

Think SF means she couldn't wear an UNWIRED bra, as I know she definitely wears wires

I have seen some in sainsburys I think.

You could try a Uniqlo bra in L. They are very comfy.

I think Freya still do an under wired version of their Deco bra. I have to ask because I can't help myself have you measured the MN way? It's just that a 34DD is designed for someone with an across bust measurement of 39". I measure 40" and there is no way I could wear an under wired bra and feel secure, lifted etc.

Bump!
