Dress gaping at bust

I have a dress that I love that gapes at the bust now (post baby). Is there any way to salvage it?

Sew in a tiny snap right at the gape. I did this for a dress that was a bit low. Snaps are very inexpensive at a sewing shop, and easy to sew on.

Also try on a minimizing bra; it squishes them in a bit!

Wear a "boob tube" underneath or a simple strappy top.

Clothes designers seem to have minimal understanding of women's bodies.
