How to wear nice bras, discreetly, if you have big boobs

The majority of my bras are functional (smooth/seamless in either nude, white or black) and can be worn under pretty much anything bit they are so dull and boring.

So many pretty bras available now for DD+ sizes (bravissimo/curvy kate) in an array of colours but not smooth cupped so the 'imprint' of the fabric can be seen under t shirts, vests, jersey dresses, blouses.

If you almost always wear bras that are gorgeous rather than just plain functional what do you wear on top?

I don't wear them unless under a lined dress for exactly those reasons. So I rarely wear them unless going to work or out.

I love a good smooth, seamless bra!

Either under a lined dress or under a top with a cardigan etc. Mainly made for the bedroom!

I always wear 'nice' underwear and don't really find it a problem tbh. I rarely wear vests or plain t's though. I don't wear any tops that are too tightly fitted generally and prints/patterns are pretty good at disguising outlines too.

I wear seamless/ smooth about 99% of the time. I normally wear Freya Idol bras as they come in different colours (red, teal, new one is graphite grey) and they have a pinstripe effect to the fabric so not completely plain.

M&S do really thin cami's in a variety of colours that I wear under thinner tops if the pattern is showing through. Normally they are on offer, buy one get one half price. Even in warmer weather i don't feel any hotter when wearing one.

I only have pretty bras - I always fail at buying plain bras when I try to.

I rarely wear tops that are very fitted and I nearly always wear a vest to underneath for various reasons. Sometimes there is a slight outline but it doesn't bother me tbh.
