How about this:

www.jigsaw-online.com/product/modal-lace-vest/J28777_PI060

Not silk, but very very lightweight. I have several and find them excellent for layering

any good - cotton, not silky though ,
HERE

Jigsaw! They are utterly brilliant. I’m not really a fan of the rest of the clothes from there at all but the camis are so good I go there just for them.

Have a look at the Uniqlo Airism range - www.uniqlo.com/uk/en/women/innerwear-and-loungewear/airism/camisoles

Not exactly the prettiest but cheap, nice fit and great at keeping you cool when it’s warmer.

thedevilinablackdress · 15/03/2018 12:56

eBay! I've got quite a few lovely silk camisoles there. Often they are Coast so if you're not keen on 2nd hand you could try them too but they might be ££

SmilingButClueless · 15/03/2018 13:04

Monsoon often has some quite nice ones, not sure what they’ve got in at the moment though.

Clickncollect · 15/03/2018 13:18

I got some lovely camis in various colours from Wallis last season

AllBuggiedOut · 15/03/2018 13:24

Zara do brilliant ones in their basics range - but I've never been able to find them online :-/

StableGenius · 15/03/2018 13:25

Another fan of the Jigsaw modal lace camis here.

Ebay.. xxx

Underparmummy · 15/03/2018 14:57

I have a j crew one and a white company one and like them both v much. Were spendy - got them both in the sale.

CountFosco · 15/03/2018 17:09

Boden silk camisoles can usually be bought with a discount code to reduce costs. Or get them from ebay.

Faintlinesquints · 15/03/2018 17:13

Seriously cheap and cheerful but I have this in navy and LOVE it, I usually pick it over my more expensive ones and it's a fiver. Seriously, a fiver! They do have other colours, not 100% blush pink though.

Have you tried Zara? Also, When you check these stores do you look at their nightwear sections too? That's where a lot of my good ones are from.

Faintlinesquints · 15/03/2018 17:15

this is a really pretty blush pink one.

scatteredglitter · 19/03/2018 03:36

So many great suggestions thank you

Will check them out and report back !

Have ordered uniqlo ones to try out

Like the forever 21 but they re sold out.

Jigsaw ones are not what I m looking for - have a few in different shades but not wanting modal

Think uniqulo ones are a little too plain

FYI - Uniqlo camis run ridiculously small. I'm an 8-10 with small breasts and had to exchange my order a Large!

Try patra for silk ones
