Clingy Tees

I always have trouble finding tees that work for my body. I often
need more casual and washable shirts to wear to work (I am a teacher).
I do have a larger bust and it is difficult to find shirts that do not
cling to either my bust or my stomach (creating an unflattering roll).
Are there any "magic" fabrics I should be looking for?
Thanks!

This is a Question for The SOS Dream Team. And here are the replies:

I have to admit that I avoid tee shirts. It can be hard to find one
that fits the bust and waist properly. I usually opt for casual knit
shirts instead or something with more structure. When I do wear a tee shirt, I make sure the bra is right, and the pants fit properly. If the "unflattering roll" is muffin top, then the pants are just too tight and is going to cause a problem with any shirt.

This is an example of a "tee" shirt that I might wear:

I also find that a shirt with a pattern is good too because the pattern not only minimizes a large bust but the detailing can disguise any bumps on the tummy.

ayyy, me too...all my blouses are buttondowns, either long or short
sleeved.

my only contribution is to say that those with a lot of stretch can be
a double-edged sword, as they can have a 'life of their own' and roll
up or down when they're snug or pulled down tightly.
like the famous line on 'Are You Being Served?'...'They ride up with
wear'...

I have a few fine gauge knit sweaters that are a silk/cotton/spandex
blend and are washable on delicate. I do have to dry them flat but I
love them and they are worth the effort. The don't cling or lose
their shape and wear well. I also find that they don't fade like pure
cotton. I have also had good luck with the v-neck t-shirts from The
Gap. They fit well through the mid-section without clinging and also launder well.

For very hot summer weather and really casual outfits I buy a few
mostly cotton Ts from places like Avenue and Catherine's. These are
plus sizes because I can't stand a tight fit across an already
prominent bosom, but I know other chain stores make them in smaller sizes. They now come in shaped styles so they do not hang out and away from the bust to the hem. The fabric keeps them from clinging too much. The downside is that this fabric does not keep its color and newness at all. A few machine washings and they are ready for cleaning the basement. I buy them in a few colors when they are deeply discounted. Their life can be extended by careful washing in cold water, etc., but if you are going to take that much trouble I'd go for better quality and longer lasting pieces.

I have some higher quality T type tops that need hand washing but take only a swish through the suds and rinse and they hang dry perfectly overnight. They keep their color and look new much longer.

Another tip for buying this kind of item for busty women - look VERY carefully in the mirror from all angles when you try on. If the fabric is thin and fine you may find yourself revealing the details of yourbra, or worse, your anatomy. Be especially careful about the color of the bra under since where the fabric is stretched the most, you may see glimpses of a contrasting color!
