I'm looking for some good quality vest tops, the sleeveless kind as opposed to strappy. I have a bra with side support which comes quite high under my armpits so I need the vest to be the same.

I have just bought some of these from NEXT. Flattering and comfy with nice straps.

Buy Black TENCELâ„¢ Modal Slouch V-Neck Vest from the Next UK online shop

So as a result of this thread, I bravely ordered some of the Uniqlo vest tops with a built in bra that were recommended.

They are indeed surprisingly supportive although my breasts definitely sit lower and have a different shape than when I wear my usual bra. My breasts are usually very high up and perky/rounded, think 'hello boys' advert type shape. They definitely aren't 'hello boys' height/shape in the vest top, so although they seem very low to me and what I am used to, they just look like I have a normal supportive bra on, and there is no sag or anything. Which is always helpful when you are an E cup!

The ribbed tops and normal vests have the thicker material and look great. I ordered a light grey AIRism type vest and the material is quite fine so clings and I have a little bit of wobbly skin on my tummy so it doesn't look very flattering. Would look great if your tummy is toned all over though. It's a shame as I have a slim waist and no one would say I have a fat belly in the slightest, but there is just some subtle wobble and it looks terrible in that top.
