Q for big chested ladies - Let's talk button down shirts

Even before being PG and BFing, I always had problems finding button down shirt that would not have that "gap" between buttons.

So now it's even worst. In order to find shirts that fits, I have to get an XL. So it's too big everywhere else.

For the ladies with bigger boobs and have to wear "professional" clothing, do you have any secret place where you buy your clothes?

Hollywood Fashion Tape Chat Icon I've never tried it, but I've seen it on tv and it has rave reviews. It's an adhesive strip that won't ruin your clothing and basically elminates the gap. It's great for hems too.

I stopped wearing button downs and opted for camisoles or a sleeveless shell.

I have the same issue!! It's really bad right now too! I typically buy most of my button down shirts @ Banana Republic. Now, those aren't fitting unless I get an XL. I'm thinking I have to get the XL and have the sides taylored.... Chat Icon

Good luck!

I'm not huge up top, but I've got a healthy C and i find that Banana Republic shirts fit the best with no gap.

I stopped wearing them but I found the Express ones to be the most comfortable. I think it's the editor shirt it has some lycra in it so it is strechy.

Never found one that fit well and I refused to stop buying them or buy too large, so I have a stash of safety pins and I pin the gap together between my boobs on the inside of the shirt.
