Grey nursing bras

7 replies

Do they exist? Something non-jersey, non lacy, ideally silky, smooth and underwired!

Strongly suspect does not exist... thought it worth a shot though

Or the above non-nursing might do the trick, I need one to wear under a grey dress with rather gapey cleavage...

All my pale ones have turned grey with use, you can have 'em if you like

more helpfully, Anita Maternity does some underwired jacquard nursing bras -- I think only black and white, though. I wonder if you could get a white one and dye it, if not actually grey then some lovely harmonizing shade?

Or just get a really thin camisole of some sort to wear under the dress and hide any bra that's showing?

i've sewn the clips off an old nursing bra onto a nice coloured underwired bra. It's really easy, there's a tutorial out there if you google converting bra into nursing bra.

I didn't know under wired nursing brass existed!

Claricestar, would it still be easy for someone not very good at sewing?

claricestar · 02/07/2010 19:22

very easy, just a case of cutting the clips of an old bra, cutting the straps on the new bra and sewing the clips on (look at the old bra to see how they are put on) you can add a bit of ribbon/elastic to attach the strap to the cup...all this can be done by hand sewing...not a lot of sewing involved..look at this site for a tutorial and pics
