A shirt with stretch/movement

I want to wear a shirt with a vest under for the autumn, long enough to cover my bum when wearing leggings. But shirts I’ve tried in the past haven’t had any ‘give’.
So looking for a shirt where the sleeves will stay rolled up, there’s some give in the material, and as breathable/cotton as possible.

I am looking for something similar in a light cheesecloth type material that I can leave open over a vest, want it in white and finding it impossible to get. Long enough to cover bum but not down to knees like some beach cover up types.

No suggestions but watching with interest 😉

Not stretchy but they had a range of cheesecloth shirts in new look - I got a peach coloured one but they had blue and possibly a green.

I’ve never worn shirts, but developed the same desire, except I didnt even think of stretchy. I am busty, and thick/ stiff shirts come straight down from my tits and turn me into a very large box. I also loathe it when shirts have 2 pockets , although I don’t mind one. I ordered loads and found 3 at Next, 2 in the sale, which was good. 2 are cotton and 1 is satin which I didn’t think would work, but does. I think they all fall in a column from normal sized shoulders, whereas some shirts are oversized in the shoulders and therefore balloon out across the body. This is very cooling in hot weather

I got one from Anthropology, in white cheesecloth material, I saw a blogger with it on and took a look, its the first shirt that doesn't make me look like a box, seems to follow the figure and not hang from the bust, I'm also large busted, I was worried it wouldn't fit my boobs as many don't, that why I don't own any others, I did order the small, as the blogger said it comes up quite big, I love it, it's short in style, I like that as I'm petite.
