JCrew is ticking me off!
I love their clothes, but they simply do not accomodate a more well endowed woman. And I'm not talking double D's here! I'm a 34D and most of their shirts and dresses only cover a quarter of my boob 
I fell in love with this dress yesterday, tried it on, and it looked like I was wearing a triangle bikini Image Attachment(s):

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
I have the same problem (and am the same size) at a lot of stores. I am pretty small on top otherwise, so it's very hard to get a top that fits right.
I remember a few years ago I was in Club Monaco and I asked them about it-- and the sales girl told me that the shirts are made to fit a 34B because that is the average size. P!ssed me off.

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
Hmph
I really liked the dress, but I"ll be damned if I'm going to buy it two sizes too big and then spend another $50 to have it altered.
Jcrew is slowly falling in the totem poll of stores I frequent

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
I'm trying to lose weight and tone up for the summer, and I REALLY hope that their D cup bikini tops are really and truly D cup. If they aren't, then I'm going to be mad

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
I think bathing suits are a different story, since they sell them by the cup size.
I had a similar experience at JCREW with a sweater dress-- so cute, but it would have been OBSCENE if I actually wore it out anywhere.
The thing that really annoys me, is that the catalog/internet pics are misleading, because the items do not fit as pictured.

I TOTALLY agree. Unless they are using models who truly do not have boobs. I mean less than an A cup.

Try Victoria's Secret - I bought a bunch of bathing suits from them and they fit perfectly. Love them.

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
that model looks like she has boobs though. I think they probably pinned the dress, or whatever... like they do on mannequins.
Whatever, I love JCREW, but their clothes were never the best fit for me. I usually only end up getting sweaters, to cover my apparently gargantuan boobs.

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
I love that dress! My problem with JCrew lately is the pricing...
It seems like out of nowhere that they think they are extremely high end or something... Every time I walk out of there I am like..  how did I afford this stuff in high school and college on baby-sitting and money from an afterschool job?

Grrrrr
I've been saying this for years! I never buy dresses there 
I was thinking of trying that dress on, too.
Ann Taylor Loft has some cute wrap dresses that are doable!

Yeah, well, unless your bra size is a 32a, don't even think about trying it on!

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
I bought a few items from them the other day and because I was in Italy a couple of days prior, my credit card refused the charge. J.Crew sent me an e-mail to correct the problem and I was like "um, nah...I don't think I even want the stuff after the flip-flop debacle..." I also completely agree with their pricing...INSANE!

Maybe this is why I like jcrew so much - they accomodate my small (and ever shrinking) boobies

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
Good to know! I was going to order this dress, but I'm like a DD, so it would never fit me on top!

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!
I have been noticing this about a lot of their tops lately. I already knew their bottoms were always narrow but their tops used to be nice. Now everything is so body conscious.
I agree that I refuse to size up just to get something to fit and then have it altered.
I love a lot of their sweaters but the other stuff is just took hard to fit into these days..

Re: JCrew is ticking me off!

I has a similar problem with a dress at the gap, it was on sale so cute but barely covered my boobs, it was obscene.
