Anyone else think the same as me? The times I’ve found which I think are really lovely blouses and turn them round and lo and behold they have a T-shirt Back, it really grinds my gears, if I want a T-shirt I will buy one. Rant over !

I have never seen a blouse with a T shirt back, where were these?
Seasalt, LandsEnd, White Stuff and Boden have lovely blouses

White Stuff used to make shirts with T shirt backs so I know what OP means. I have such a shirt. Great front and sleeves, but the back creases badly due to the type of fabric. The rest of the shirt would pass muster without needing to be ironed, not so the back.

I love shirts and blouses. Damart have some, and Bon Marche too. I wait for the sales in department stores for good quality ones.

What I dislike about so many blouses these days, even in M&S, is the need to cut them so low at the front they expose more flesh than I'm happy to show, why is that.

Start looking at higher quality labels. You will find lovely blouses to your liking. That kind of short-cutting is a manufacturer’s way of cutting costs. Cheap clothing.

You may pay more for a better label but you only need to buy one or two blouses from year to year to keep your wardrobe going.
