Crop top style bra recommendations please

I hate underwired bras and find them so uncomfortable. I like the look of the crop top style bras that are around and would like to try them at least for wearing at home.
I am a 34D.

Can anyone recommend a comfy one? I really don’t care what it looks like, I just want comfort!

I tried loads and genuinely the best ones are from

I had my first Primark visit last week and bought a black bralette with crossed back.

Changed my life. The most comfortable, flattering thing ever. Going back next week for more and it cost the princely sum of £5

PS: I'm a 36D

Really LaLa?! Sounds worth a look!

I love the Sloggi zero feel bralettes. No wiring or itchy bits and I find them pretty supportive at a 34 e. There’s also Zero feel cropped tops as well.

MOLKE

I hardly ever wear anything else. Truly supportive and comfortable. Hoiks them up into the right place without wires. Ignore that theyre a breastfeeding bra, theyre for everyone, and have a real cult following

M&S bralettes are meant to be good.

I have a Zakti low-impact crop top from Mountain Warehouse for yoga. So comfy!

Mine are from Peacocks - they do different strap styles (spaghetti/thick). Around £4/£5. Following LaLa's recommendation I will have a look in Primark when I'm in there next week as a couple of mine are looking a bit shabby. I'm 34E/F.

I’ve always worn underwired bras (47) but have found them more and more uncomfortable. I bought this one in M&S and can honestly say it’s the most comfortable one I’ve ever had. Have since bought it in both black and white ( separately listed on the website ) . I’ve previously bought 34D but found without the wires 32dd was a better fit.

I like look of their velvet lounge bra / bralet so may try that next.

Can anyone recommend any which aren't in fabrics which are very thin? I'd love to find something that would work well under a fairly fitted t-shirt

Branleuse · 10/11/2018 16:05

yes, the Molkes are quite thick.

teta · 10/11/2018 17:53

The Sloggi Zero feel are thin material but the cups inside are really supportive.This means it adapts to your shape and looks natural. In the way that the M&S padded ones ( moulded) don’t. They just make me into a very strange shape.

teta · 10/11/2018 17:54

Also Neon Moon are worth a look . Very very comfy cropped tops that may suit you. I have one but it’s not supportive enough for me at 34e.

FellSwoop · 10/11/2018 18:03

Tesco ones (£6) are brilliant...I've pretty much stopped wearing a conventional bra. I'm 30g/32ff and find the medium is best for me. Comfy, supportive and a smooth line under tops with no backfat bulges in sight.
I loved the fuller bust lace bralette from m&s when I first bought it but it stretches far to quickly

These are great and cheap from Amazon

I have a couple of these tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/Black-Seamless-Unpadded-Bra/124016750-Black v comfortable- mostly as I hated bras feeling uncomfortable as I crawled around with toddlers

Branleuse · 11/11/2018 10:03

i have one of those sainsburies one, but I would only wear it for sleep. It doesnt give any support or shape

nothingwittyhere · 11/11/2018 10:08

Can anyone tell me what the sizing on the Sloggi is like? TIA
