When it comes to my wardrobe, few items work harder than my M&S Cotton Rich Support Vests. This time last year, I was shopping for some simple base layers when I came across the cleverly designed tops, which turned out to be anything but basic. The supportive separates were a total game-changer when it came to pulling together my warm-weather outfits, and I've been wearing them on repeat ever since.
What does secret support actually mean? The vest features a discreet built-in bra to lift and hold your boobs while you wear it – it’s a firm yet stretchy inner layer that sits in a similar way to a crop top, and comes with removable cups to add some shape and smoothness to your bust. The tops offer plenty of structure and hold for my chest, but minus the need for a rigid, wired bra, and all without any risk of pesky shoulder straps showing or unsightly cups poking out at the front.
