Underwear for flatties

Hello
Has anyone who has stayed completely flat after a double mastectomy found any pretty underwear that can be worn instead of a bra? I’ve got cotton vest tops and flat sports type bras but they are very plain and boring. I’d like to find something pretty!
I like to wear something under my clothes because I like to protect my scars because they are still quite new. Plus I feel a bit odd wearing nothing at all.
Thanks folks. Xx

Hi, I have just bought some really pretty bra tops from Nicola Jane, the colours they come in are lovely and I can wear them with or without my prosthetics, I would definitely recommend them as the customer service was great.

Oooh thank you.
I looked there ages ago but thought everything was for people using prosthetics. I’ll look again. Xx

Double flat here. I discovered the camis and vests at Stripe and Stare - and have never looked back. They are so soft and lovely colours and patterns, I wear every day and pretty enough to have a shirt open on top.

Budget friendly option are the seamless bralettes from primark :slight_smile: I have a couple and they’re really soft and have a cute lace trim. They have very flimsy padding that can be removed easily. Im flat on one side only but will have a preventative mastectomy on the other side and I would still wear these x

Thank you so much. I will have a look now!

Thank you so much.
I hope you have a date for your preventative mastectomy and don’t have to wait too much longer.
Wishing you the best for it. Xx

Hi Jayesee

I can’t comment from personal experience but I’ve seen lots of camisoles around which have an extra bra top inset. They look extremely comfortable. The ones I saw were in Primark. Not sure if you’re in Uk

Take care

Thank you. Yes I’m in UK. Will pop in to Primark next time I’m in the nearest town that has one. Where I live we don’t! Xx
