I want one (or maybe even a few) but:-

I want to wear them in the day time, so too dressy

I need to be able to wear a proper bra with them so no spaghetti straps

I want cotton ideally - no jersey because its too clingy

I don't want halter neck and don't like showing off too much of my back

In an absolute ideal world, it wouldn't be empire line. I am 5 months post natal and still look pregnant in the wrong sort of clothes.

Has anyone seen anything that might suit ?

I'm 5' 7", size 14, biggish norks (36 DD) and tend to like browns/greens/reds

I have this

It is great, really flattering, I get around the strap issue by wearing a white strap top with built in bra. However, I feel well supported without a bra if I feel brave.

Quite a good choice on Debenhams too, I like this one for day time wear and good value!
