Nursing Bras - Any recommendations?

Does anyone know of a nursing bra that looks good? I don’t mean pretty on its own but one that gives a nice shape under clothes.
I put a jumper on earlier and my god, between my post baby belly and my odd bra, I looked just like my gran used to in my shape! (she was a vibrant and beautiful woman but she was 85 and I don’t want to look like her quite yet at 35)
Feel so frumpy but I think a nicer shape to my boobs would feel loads better. I’m in clothes size 16-18 and around 34G.

Buy a normal bra and convert. Or buy a normal bra, and just slide the strap down and pull boob out when needed - actually very easy to do if it's a plunge or balcony style.

Hot milk and Freya do underwired ones in bigger sizes. I think a non wired one will always make a substantial bosom look like a floppy flan tbh

@KatharinaRosalie That worked before the weather turned so cold, I’m wearing lots of layers now, it’s too tricky.
@horse4course Thank you, hot milk looks the way to go, they’re decent prices too.

Came on to say the same as above hot milk and freya fit like normal bras but with clippy cups.

(I posted this in style and Beauty about a year ago and am reposting as I actually still wear these bras as they are so comfy, even though I’m not breastfeeding anymore!)
Just thought I would share that I found the perfect nursing bra! With my first baby I spent two years looking like I was a stone heavier and had mono boob, so this time I tried about a million bras and have found the holy grail - an underwire nursing bra that is really comfy and gives a lovely shape. I got the Anita 5035 bra in a 34F and it makes me look positively perky (sadly I’m not). Just thought I would post as when I was looking for info there wasn’t much...

Emma Jane nursing's bras from JoJo Maman Bebe are the comfiest ever... I've worn them non-stop for three years!

I’m in a Facebook group called “Can I breastfeed in it?” And everyone recommends the Hot Milk temptation bra on there. Good group BTW.
