being a female lacking in the chest department I think I should invest in a few good padded bra to increase my minimal assets. However, are all padded bras underwired because underwired bras are really uncomfortable for me?

Can any one suggest some good (affordable) padded bras?

    I don't think I've seen any that aren't underwired. La Senza & M&S are the best ones though I reckon. Places like Top Shop etc can be cheaper but they fall apart after a few washes!

    ok so its possible to take out the wires and they still stay in place? hmmm wrongly phrased and probably doesn't make sense, but what I mean is that the bra doesn't lose its shape or anything?

    Marks and spencers do a range of teen bras which are really nice and all without wiring. Im sure there were a couple of styles that had padding in them.
    I have a couple of their teen bras and theyre really comfy, I got them specifically as they had no wiring, and its hard to find bras without it these days I think.

    yeh, a place like bhs will do bra's for younger people with padding but without underwiring. apparantly you're not meant to wear ones with underwiring while you're still growing.
