No, seriously, I feel like you look a little uncomfy in this size, and I'm not sure if it's the fit or the photo. But I like a little room to move in anything stiff (or at least, what I think of as stiff). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862796 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 02:42:09 +0000 Angie 862796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote size up in this fit. It's too snug everywhere - under the arm and on the bust too - as well as on the midriff and hips. It has potential though. I think it will work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862726 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:54:13 +0000 Jules 862726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely try the tailored for comparison, but I found it pretty fitted too - and with perhaps a little less stretch, didn't fit quite as well in some areas (on me).<br /> Interesting point about smaller fit for layering, k. I've rejected the two BR fits AND H&amp;M because they were just a smidge too small on their own, even though I really want it for layering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862697 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:36:19 +0000 K. Period. 862697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mona, they seem to last for a couple of years, but I don't wear them intensely. At $20 a pop, though, they are pretty easy to justify on a cost per wear basis! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862675 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:20:58 +0000 JulieJohn 862675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not a sizing pro, but I will say it looks great through the shoulders and bust. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862673 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:19:01 +0000 Mona 862673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now that is a great idea, k can shop. How long the H&amp;M button downs last? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862656 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 01:06:26 +0000 K. Period. 862656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mona, if you are going to wear it mostly tucked and layered, then I think it is perfect. I buy my shirts in two sizes. A larger size that fits without tightness for shirts that I wear untucked and unlayered, and a smaller size that is a little snug for shirts that I wear tucked and layered. It almost needs to be too small for me to fit nicely and flat under a layer like a v-neck sweater. (I buy my cheap layering button downs at H&amp;M for that reason.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862513 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:21:50 +0000 Mona 862513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, I am going to iron it and wear it to see how it looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862512 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:20:43 +0000 Mona 862512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, that is a good suggestion. I will order it in tailored version too.<br /> k can shop, I will iron it to see if that makes fit a little bit better. I am hoping to wear this mostly tucked and layered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862510 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:19:15 +0000 Anonymous 862510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even though it's non-iron, I think it could use a quick steam to help you decide. Since it has stretch, this could work if you want a traditional, well-fitting shirt. The petite sizing looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862505 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:12:21 +0000 K. Period. 862505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would you wear it mostly untucked? If you are going to wear it tucked or layered, then it's not a problem. If you are going to wear it untucked, could you give it a quick iron (I know--no iron, right?!?) and see if that relaxes the fabric enough to bring it together a little? I think that the creases in it from packing and shipping are throwing it off.</p> <p>Oh, and let's see it with your tank untucked to continue the white line underneath. I bet that solves it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862463 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:32:07 +0000 Suz 862463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How does it work with the bottom button undone, Mona? I think sometimes Angie suggests that solution to pretty pears. </p> <p>Another option: compare the Tailored version in the same size. That one fits a bit different, I believe. </p> <p>You look good in the white! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-non-iron-fitted-white-button-down---sizing-help#post-862443 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:05:03 +0000 Mona 862443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I recieved this shirt in the mail today. I am not sure about the size, though. <a href="http://bananarepublic.gapcanada.ca/browse/product.do?pid=7178430330006&#038;cid=26403&#038;locale=en_CA" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gapcanad.....cale=en_CA</a><br /> What do you guys think? I almost want to size up one but the shoulders fit well in this and I am afraid a size up will be too big in shoulders. </p>
