There are companies now that sell button-front shirts by bra size, which is supposed to take into account the fit issue, because you can specify your shape. I have yet to try them, but I'm curious.

It's like the promised land! Do you know the name of any of these companies?

The only one I remember off the top of my head is a company called Rebecca & Drew. There may be another one, but I think this was the one I originally saw. They can be pricey -- around $200 -- but hey, if it fits, you can wear it forever. Their web site is here:

Also try Anne Fontaine -- while they do not go by bra size, they are known for their forgiving fit up top and their sizing (much more shapely.) I think they're in the same price range as Rebecca & Drew but it might be worth checking out. They do mostly white blouses, with different styles, and they do different colors and patterns every season. They have a great wrap top.

Yikes. that would be...about 10 times what I normally spend on a shirt ;). Even the clearance is expensive. Which is too bad as they are pretty and I think they'd fit...(er, think they'd fit when I'm not pregnant, anyway ;).

There's also Bravissimo (http://www.bravissimo.com/bravissimo/ProductList.aspx?cid=Clothing_Fitted+Shirts&language=en-GB).

I saw them! I had never heard of them before encountering one of them in real life in Oxford when one of the other bridesmaids dragged me to it. (She's 34DDD or something like that. It's her holy land.) They did have nice clothes.
