Are you in the U.K.? Marks & Spencer's women's shirts have extra, inward facing buttons over the bust area to stop that happening. Alternatively, it might be that your shirts are a size too small.

Silk / cotton shell. Or a dress. Just skip the buttons, it's too much hassle

The problem is that anybody else seems to be so welcoming and open-minded, except for this one guy. Any advices?
