I love Uniqlo they have Rayon shirts in every colour, drapes beautifully, feels like silk.

Have you tried JL or Debenhams they have a good selection of different brand names and styles.

Not crisp cotton. These are the ones that don’t ‘drape’ but just stick out, make you look bulky. Yes, have checked out M&S and Next (sent 2 back as see through).

I don’t want a shirt that looks like school uniform either. Although this is our band ‘uniform’ we are looking for something a bit more feminine than that. There are several of us in the same position needing new blouses and finding it almost impossible. I’d be willing to pay above the odds for the right one.

M&S schoolwear. Unless you have a huge bust! The teenage sizes are fine for adults, some of whom have huge busts!

Next! I think it's the style you're looking for and nice crisp cotton.

Who would think it so difficult to find a white shirt?

I play in an ‘ensemble’ and our uniform is black skirt or trousers and a plain white shirt. My old shirt has finally come to the end of its life and looks decidedly scruffy so I need a new one.

I’ve searched everywhere. They are either too thin and reveal too much, or the material is too stiff and doesn’t ‘drape’ well (thus over-enhancing a chest which is sufficiently well enhanced already) or linen. Now some people can were linen and look casually chic, I just look crumpled.

It must have a collar and 3/4 or full length sleeves and be available in a size 14 and preferablly a longer line rather than those silly short shirts that just stop at your bottom therefore emphasising the part your rather have covered.

I’d settle for ivory or off white.

Please - any suggestions.
