^ Oh, please don't bring up the Mulleavys & start that conversation again

Here's what's wrong with the fit of Courtney's shirt:
  • See the extra fabric billowing out at the top?
  • Pulling around yoke
  • Highlighting of that ... I don't know what it's called, but the roll of fat between the bustline and the tummy
I suspect she may have gained a couple pounds since she bought the shirt, and it used to fit better. (Or maybe the cleaners shrank it ...)

Button-front shirts are a dicey proposition for well-endowed women, but a ruched shirt might do the trick for Courtney ...
