Bra/crop top recommendation for skinny DD aged 11

7 replies

SarfE4sticated · 01/01/2019 23:44

DD is going through a puberty growth spurt, and needs some form of containment for her new arrivals (trying not to be too graphic just in case). I would like to get her some nice crop tops but can't find any she really likes. She's not a pink/lace or bow kind of girl, likes skandi style prints and clothes, or would possibly go for something in nude to go under her school polo shirts. I don't think she has enough to fill the cup of a proper bra really, but also doesn't need the support of a proper sports bra.
I can't find anything that would pass muster at John Lewis, M&S, or debenhams. Any thoughts? I thought she might like this from gap but wrong colour.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

My dd wears similar to the one you posted but from Primark. Not sure about nude as she always wears white.

bra shape crop tops

They have white/nude instore though. Very stretchy, comfy and not racer back, so better under clothes.

This is the style that I grew up wearing. I don't know if you guys have bonds in the UK though.

H&M do cute little bralette things. They have simple Calvin Klein style ones and also sportier ones.

I was going to recommend braletts too- h&m or tkmaxx. My dd has nice ones by DKNY in a nude colour, from tkmaxx.

Thanks everyone, I got some really cute ones from John Lewis, only one small pink bow, which I can remove if hated. Only £7 for two.
