I got an expensive t shirt in size bigger than I am and the chest is so fitted and you can see the exact shape of bra. Their all like this and everyone is wearing them. Why do they make them like this?

Yes, unfortunately sometimes you have to size up 2 or 3 sizes when they come so tiny. Very disappointing. Hugs

They are also so short. If one has a large bust, you need a taller skirt or shell to cover your stomach. They should make shirts longer.

You're all validating me!! I sized up on new clothes this season.. tried shopping on SheIn but everything was so skimpy. I stuck to local stores where 1 size up is doing it for me.

Hanes has good solid ones that aren't too fitted.

I do tell stores if something bothers me. If more people complain the more they will do something about it.
The ribbed shirts are terrible.

It's crazy! I took my slim 12yo shopping and could only buy size women's large! Obviously there is nothing that fits me. Meanwhile I have normal tznius shirts from banana republic and Nordstrom. But if I overspend at the frum stores it's impossible to find anything tznius.

Yes. They all make them sooo tight. I really don’t get it.

Check out roseandharrysny.com. Their tops are not fitted but have a nice shape.

In Boro Park, if you look closely, about 95% of women and girls wearing tshirts are wearing shells underneath.

The colors are lovely, but the neckline looks a little low on the models. How do these shirts fit on the collar bones?

Also, how thin are these shirts?

Are you speaking of the Eddie Bauer shirts, or Ts in general?

In general. I’m not familiar with Eddie Bauer specifically, but in my experience almost all women shirts are clingy and/or not long enough and/or way more expensive.
