No soultions, just sympathy.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-862266 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 20:13:16 +0000 Echo 862266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I experience this a lot, especially on sheer tops. The weight of the collar in comparison to the rest of the fabric makes sense, though. It happens to me more when I have more buttons undone to show more of the underlayer than when I have them buttoned up higher. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-862256 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 20:10:20 +0000 cciele 862256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting... some of my shirts slide back and some slide forward. I need to find out if there's any rhyme or reason to that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-862251 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 20:08:12 +0000 jayne 862251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it is the weight of the collar ..I mean being most shirts have a collar --- I experience it on some jackets that seem out of balance with a heavy collar, but I cannot explain that better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-862138 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 19:05:14 +0000 Anonymous 862138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No clue as to why. This happens to me too, I just figure it is because I have a small bust. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861987 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 17:59:15 +0000 transition 861987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with elpgal; I'm always tugging the back to keep from showing too much cleavage. I have scoliosis. . . I wonder if that's why? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861788 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 15:53:56 +0000 elpgal 861788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the opposite problem; I have to tug them down the back. I think it has to do with my upper spine curvature. The shirts don't lie flat and glide down along my back; they bunch up near my nect and deltoids. I have the same problem with moto jackets or anything with a pronounced collar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861781 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 15:50:08 +0000 Nicole D 861781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe the back is too long, so that when you sit you pull it down. Feel like I need a degree in fashion engineering to figure that one out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861773 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 15:44:03 +0000 Suz 861773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm. Interesting. I am like Claire - I had the problem constantly with oversized fits, but don't seem to experience it now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861659 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 14:16:05 +0000 Anonymous 861659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This used to be a chronic problem in for me with the oversized shirts in the 80s. I don't notice it so much now though. Maybe the armholes on my blouses are smaller now? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861641 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 13:50:47 +0000 bj1111 861641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i get this too. i think in the course of the day with the arm movements and general being out and about, i do a periodic yank in the front especially if i don't tuck or the shirt has a short front tail. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shirt-fit-question#post-861633 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 13:36:16 +0000 Mander 861633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why do my long sleeved button down shirts always slide down my back? I feel like I am constantly having to tug them down in front, especially if they are under a sweater. They don't seem too small anywhere. </p> <p>Is it just a product of sweater-shirt friction? </p>
