Basic T-shirts for a large chest

5 replies

I’m in search of the perfect basic slightly loose Tshirt to wear with jeans.

I’m hour glass shaped have broad shoulders, bust and hips. Current size 16-18, 38H.

I feel like truly boxy styles fit oddly around the armpit because of the bust and oversized makes me look quite big in an unflattering way as they hang from the bust.

Does anyone else have this issue ? And has anyone found anything that works well - maybe with the right amount of stretch?!

All price points considered!

I found some T-shirts in Primark. They were quite cheap but surprisingly were good quality and seemed to hang well. I’m bid bust (42DD) and don’t t like t-shirts tight over bust. They do v-neck and round neck.
Have a look.

primark slouch tees are quite good. The neckline is flattering - (im 34gg and a size 16) just their cheap £3 type.

I hate the short boxy tee shirts out now.
They make me look like a short Hatty Jacques.

I like m&S "the relaxed fit" modal cotton ones. The modal makes the difference, they are very comfortable
