Problem: My quest for the perfect dress shirt became urgent after a disastrous start of a date. I walked into the café feeling confident, wearing a striped soft cotton blue dress shirt tucked carefully into my low-slung jeans with a pearl chain necklace to match. Ten minutes after meeting my date (a perfectly nice guy) I found him staring at my chest. How rude! I looked down to find that the buttons on my shirt had gapped open, leaving my bra in plain view of my date and about 25 other people in the café. What’s a girl gotta do to find a button-down shirt that doesn’t gap, forms to our curves, and looks feminine?
Solution: The designers at Rebecca and Drew solve this dilemma by designing shirts that are sized according to a woman’s bra size, height, and chest circumference. I love the extra long classic shirts – the fabric is luxurious; the two sets of twin buttons in the front provide extra precaution against gaping and allows you to open the shirt to exactly where you want; the longer length accommodates to my long arms and stays tucked into my lower-rise trousers. Rebecca and Drew also makes short sleeved shirts and other fun but still classy button-down shirts with embroidering and prints. Find the Classic Shirt on RebeccaandDrew.com for $165.
