Tops that aren't see through!

Does anyone know where I can buy nice cotton or jersey tops that aren't see through? Especially white ones that will go with almost anything.

I'm really struggling to find clothes I like right now and it's so frustrating. So many tops are polyester which just make me sweat. I tried on some lovely comfy cargo trousers in M&S today but they were high waisted which I dislike (I'm a bit fussy with clothes which doesn't help)

Summer tops are bound to be slightly see through by their very nature. It is really no big deal if a bra shows through a top. Women (usually) wear bras and it is not a big deal.

@OliviaBond I don't know if plain t-shirts are ok but Uniqlo do really good supima cotton t-shirts which are thick (although not too hot in summer) and not at all see-through.

Thank you.

i work in a school so anything slightly see through is a problem.

OP - l totally get that. I take back my earlier comment.

I agree with you, Olivia - I can't have that at work and it's a real problem, especially with white tops.
The only ones I've found that were suitably opaque are from Thought.
Good quality cotton as well.
It really is a perennial problem. Men don't have to struggle with see through shirts!

Following, I came on to post the same thing. Funnily enough I do have 1 white tshirt from shein that's not see through but really casual so not work appropiate.
Not ideal but I bought some small boob tubes from amazon that cover my bra a bit and let me have a bit of modesty without being too warm..
