White Button Down Shirt?

Sandy

It's my first post! I love the forum and I was hoping you guys could help me out.
I've been looking for a nice white button down and I've had terrible luck. My main issue is that i'm fairly busty (36D-34DD) and have issues with button downs. I own 3 The Limited short sleeve button downs, but they don't carry them anymore. I was hoping to find a nice crisp white button down that doesn't gap, doesn't make me look like a rectangle, isn't see through, and is no more than $50. Any store suggestions?

I'm about your size on the top and I've found that J Crew's perfect shirt fits me really well in a 10 or (I think!) medium. I'm not sure whether your shoulders and waist will fit, but that size fits me nicely over the chest and is still fitted through the middle.

They are between $70 and $80, so a little more than you are looking to spend, but they fit nicely. One caution, I don't think it is really possible for a shirt not to gap a little bit and still be fitted over the chest. I always find that a little safety pin in between the top and bottom bust buttons makes things lay a lot more smoothly. I'm convinced it is a physics thing. You can't make flat fabric curve over round objects very well.
