padded bras but not underwired

28 replies

I am looking for a really soft comfortable bra/not underwired but with padding to increase cup size. Is there such a thing. With good coverage not deep plunge/cutaway and with hook fastening at CB. All Victoria Secret options are too cut away although some were lovely and soft. ideally in a 30C. Any ideas or where else can I look?

I got one like that in Morrisons recently.

Triumph perhaps? You can filter by padded and non-wired.

Sloggi zero feel

springtimepls · 08/03/2025 20:43

Thank you
I havent tried the Asda one on, I will go and do so but I think it will be too big as no 30s and it looks too cut away but worth trying on at that price.
Sloggi/triumph may be options as they have online only options - I had only looked at their instore options.

Sorry, I'm confused - do you want the hook fastening, front or back? I really like the Uniqlo ones (hooks at back). Not heavily padded, but does have a bit.

springtimepls · 08/03/2025 21:21

Tried those M&S ones thanks. Yes I want hooks at the back. I meant I dont want crop top style ones without any hooks. Thanks

Sloggi zero feel - they have a hook fastening and removable pads- they are extremely comfortable. I've always been the person who takes her bra off as soon as she gets home, but I've recently had surgery and have to wear a bra to sleep and I don't even notice I have it on. I wear with pads in during the day and without at night. I bought mine online at Next - ordered a few to try.

I usually buy in M&S.

However, I was in Primark with my teenager and they had a pack of three for a similar price to one in M&S.

Super comfy!

ShinyAppleDreamingOfTheSea · 08/03/2025 23:50

I've also bought similar from Asda in the past - not the two sizes bigger one, just the basic, comes in packs of two. Very good value but not as comfy as the Sloggi.

@shinyAppleDreamingOfTheSea Have you tried the sloggi zero feel bliss as the zero feel just comes in one size but the bliss has plus cup which I think I would need

What is wrong with the marks and Spencer ones? Just so we can have more information to help you!

springtimepls · 09/03/2025 11:51

I think the M&S were too cut away but I have tried on so many bras since then I may be confused. I definitely discounted them!

or maybe just not very comfortable - having felt how soft the victoria secret ones were

17 year old Dd , 30D , wears M&S ones. They aren’t plunging. I will try and find the style.

Marks and spencers have non wired padded bras that imo are comfortable.

RossGellersCat · 09/03/2025 13:22

I had one a few years ago from Freya, think it might have come from their post surgery range. (I hadn't had surgery, but like you I wanted padding with no underwire).

I ordered one and sent it back as the fabric seemed less soft than for the other zero feel ones I have. I think maybe it's to give firmer support. I'm not saying they would be uncomfortable for you though, I was looking post-surgery and wanted the softest I could find, another time the bliss one may have been fine. If you do go for any of these with the removable pads can I suggest that you either hand wash or use a laundry bag as one of the pads from mine came out in the wash - and I haven't seen it since (another reason I'm wearing one with pads and one without!)

Missing the point but what does CB mean

springtimepls · 09/03/2025 21:50
