Cheap fine knits for under a leather biker?

Am off on a city break at the beginning of November and am planning to take just my biker jacket. Should still be pleasant weather (Lisbon).

I'm after some fine knits that I can wear under my biker that won't add too much bulk especially considering I'm a 14-16 currently with big but proportional boobs. Will wear with vintage wash jeans and trainers.

Oh and I'm on a low budget so no cashmere or similar sadly.

Local charity shops are fill of bobbly primark numbers for £8 🙄.

Rather than links to actual jumpers (as I'm aware it's a pretty boring item to search for) can anyone recommend any particular shops that are good for this kind of thing? H+M maybe? Will go look now.

I don't like high necks as they make me look like Trunchbull. I like longer length not cropped due to belly.

I get very fine knit thin jumpers in Zara and Mango.

Uniqlo have some extra fine merino v-neck or crew neck jumpers for under £30.

Try Vinted.

I'm a similar shape to you I think and I'm tall with big boobs so need longer length. I find new looks tall range is really good, h & m, asos in the tall range as well. Main collection fits in jumpers just don't work for me so second hand becomes difficult.

Marks sometimes have nice ones.

Unique merino blend

I love this Zara knit and it’s only £17.99

I have it in nearly every colour. Theyve had this style in a while, bought my first one around 6 years ago and still looks great, has washed well. Just ordered the brown one as I dont have that colour
