BONNIE | Drapey collared button up

No gap at the third button. I have not been able to say that about a shirt in years.

The button-down shirt has one failure and every woman who has bought one knows exactly where it is. Woven cotton holds its own shape, so it pulls across the bust and opens a small gap between two buttons, and you spend the day either checking it or wearing something over it. The usual fix is to buy a size too big and swim in the rest of it.

Bonnie is cut in a soft fabric that drapes rather than holds, which means it follows you instead of bridging across you, and the relaxed cut gives it the ease to do that without going shapeless. It has the collar and the full button front that make a shirt a shirt, so nothing is lost in the trade, and it is machine washable and breathable enough to keep on from a morning meeting through to dinner.

Why women our age keep coming back to it

• It drapes, so it does not gap. A soft falling fabric follows the body instead of bridging across the bust, which is where a stiff cotton shirt gives way.
• A proper collar and button front. You keep the polish of a shirt without the starch that causes the problem in the first place.
• Machine washable. It goes in with everything else, so it stays in the weekly rotation rather than the good half of the closet.
• Six colors, three of them soft. Blue, white and navy for the plain days, light pink, dark pink and light gray when you want something warmer near the face.

How it fits

Bonnie is a relaxed drapey fit and true to size, in S through 3XL. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one, but you should not need to buy up the way you would with a stiff shirt, because the drape is doing that work already. The size chart lists chest, length and sleeve in inches, measured flat.

A few recent reviews

I usually buy shirts two sizes up to stop the pulling. I took my actual size in this.

The light gray is a warm gray. I have it and the light pink.

Washes and hangs dry without a press. That is why I wear it twice a week.
