Hi Not
I had one breast removed and now wear a prostetic.
Before I was able to wear it, I wore loose t-shirts and
a light weight vest over top. I left the vest "open".

There are some very light weight "forms" you can use
before you graduate to the real deal. I call them
powder puffs. Or you can try Chrisy's method and use
socks or shoulder pads.

You have to experiment with clothes and find what
works for you. It won't be long before you can wear
prostetics and you will be surprised at how "normal"
you will look. Good luck with all of this.
