Boobs vs Buttons

While I have bust-friendly clothing, I still sometimes end up buying a dress a bit too snug on top. I've had to employ the help of 3 safety pins to secure the gaps and also provide reinforcements to these poor little buttons. I don't know what I was thinking when I got dressed this morning except "You're late--keys and shoes, boobs later!"

What I wouldn't do for the chance to take a few long deep breaths right now without the fear that I'll get stabbed by the very devices helping prevent my dress from popping open.

Aside from safety pins (and buying the right size clothing), what do you ladies tend to use to prevent the tell-tale too small blouse button gaps? Do you avoid buttons altogether? When you're at work/school, do you sneak to the washroom to unbutton and get a little breather?

  • as a 32J, i've mostly given up. When I was a bit smaller i managed to find some that only gapped slightly . . . .

  • I don't wear anything that is too small on top, not worth the aggravation.

    If I'm willing to deal with a small amount of BS then I prefer for that BS to be geared to tailoring the waist of a buttoned shirt/dress in the next size up, so that it fits everywhere. It's usually about $15-20 and only has to be done once.
