Perfect t shirt that doesn't show bra!?

Hello everyone!

Please help with my latest style dilemma- I recently bought some lovely new bras that fit perfectly, but they are lacy of cup and you can see the texture of the lace through my t shirts. And for a white t shirt, I can faintly see the colour of the bras (even my white one!)

Can anyone help me find a t shirt in tons of colours, good quality, that are bra-proof?????

I've been looking at some with sequin stripes on Next, because at least a sequin panel obliterates detail underneath!?

Recommendations gratefully received, thanks so much x

I have found Jigsaw t-shirts to be really good - they're all plain, v neck or round neck.

Cos have some thick ones too, but they're less flattering. Jigsaw all the way!

You won't want to hear this, but I think you need to invest in a tshirt bra! Not necessarily one that's marketed as such, but definitely a nude/flesh coloured bra with no lace etc. that won't show under tops like tshirts. Keep your gorgeous lacy bras for other outfits. That way, you can wear any sort of tshirt you like, just make sure you wear your 'tshirt' bra underneath!

I second T-shirt bra idea. Boring as hell but does the job. Nude shows much less than the white one.

Nude and smooth = invisible.

Yeah it's the lacy-ness of the bra. You need a dead boring smooth t shirt bra in beige or similar I expect. Sorry!

Best t shirt bra?

GeorgeTheFirst · 24/06/2019 21:35

Yeah, you can't wear a white bra under a white top, lacy or not, without it showing.

John Lewis t shirt bra. I have several in nude black and grey. About £20 and they are excellent x

Thanks all!! I finally succumbed to the inevitable....... I got the most hideous, boring 2 pack in m&s today and the nude one is AMAZING. I'm wearing it right now. It's INVISIBLE!!!!!

Thank you for the advice xx
