Recommendation for a white vest top

11 replies

Hi all,
I'm looking for recommendations for a basic white vest top for everyday wear that isn’t see through. Every one I’ve tried, my bra is visible through it. Anyone have any they love?
TIA

I got a couple of really good, basic vest tops from Peacocks 🙃

Thanks, never thought of there! I’ll check it out tomorrow

Have you tried a beige bra instead of a white one? It definitely makes them less visible through t-shirts.

I was also going to say, a nude bra makes all the difference! But M&S do decent basic vests.

Second the nude bra suggestion, it's a game changer. I've just bought a lovely slash neck white vest from M&S

Fruit of the Loom vests and T-shirts are great. You can buy them on Amazon.

The last vest tops I bought a few weeks ago are Amazon basics. Pleasantly surprised with them, good quality cotton and not see through.

I like the Cos tanks, and I would always wear with a nude bra:

You need skin colour bras under white and pale colours. I buy all my bras in nude for this reason. No point having underwear that can only be worn on 50 percent of the time

Next had some brilliant ones this summer, I’m not sure if they’re a year-round staple. Really thick ribbed cotton, with quite a high round neck.

M&S offer about the same coverage as clingfilm these days.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I appreciate you taking the time to help a stranger!
