Bras that are a bit forgiving over sizing

Having lost a bit of weight, my bras don't fit me, so I need new ones. I know I can always send things back, but prefer to avoid the hassle and am prepared to fudge it a bit over sizing, just to have something to tide me over until I can try things on in shops again. Boob or Bust type measuring puts me at a 30g.

Have never really worn non-wired outside pregnancy, but am prepared to give them a go as I assume being a bit out on size is less of an issue when there aren't wires - when I've lost weight before, it's the pointy attack on my armpits that leads me to give in and buy new ones.

So, does anyone know particular brands, styles that might be worth trying?

Molke might be worth a look, I've worn them while breastfeeding and are good with slight fluctuations, not particularly attractive though. I would think that as long as the band is tight enough, you could get away with slightly the wrong cup size if you went for a stretch lace style. Bralettes are good for not quite the right size but it's hard to get ones that fit for that size, I'm similar and haven't had much luck yet

Panache Envy has stretch lace and is recommended for those with one larger than the other so might be forgiving

I think I've had a Panache Envy before, it was a good bra! When I look at the Molke stuff, I think I could sew that myself ... but not sure I can be arsed. God, I loathe bra shopping.
