I have a plus-sized friend who has these incredible strappy tank tops with a full underwire bra built in. They look great on, and look hilarious off.

I have a great hate for the shelf bra camisoles/tanks cause I can rarely find camisoles without them these days, and they will never ever work for me because the band goes in the wrong place. I'm not looking for support from them, just coverage (I wear them under stuff, so my bras take care of the support issue.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've had little problem finding camisoles without shelf bras--probably because I'm looking for the shelf bras. That's how shopping seems to work. As for actual tanks, I really can't remember having bumped into any with shelf bras outside the VS catalogue.

Hey, you can cut the shelf bras out, like twisty did recently: [link]

Hah. Probably. I should actually amend my statement to include "in material I like and isn't crappy thin cotton or has trim I hate." Really, my problem is picky. As usual.

sara, if you look in Target's maternity section (I know. I know) they have a plethora of camisoles without bras. Which is ridonkulous if you ask me. I am like ita in that I am always looking for camis with shelf bras. though I've had a few with underwire which I dig.
Goal today: actually finish thank you notes. Seriously? there is something wrong with me.
also, does anyone know when postage rates increase?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I am home watching Sesame with a 3 year old who greeted me at day care with "I barfed."
Ya know, now that I think of it, there was a certain charm to her pre-verbal days.
(Hope she feels better and you aren't too bored.)
