Venus, the other thing is...are you wearing the right size? Does it fit just right everywhere else except along the ribcage? It is possible too if you have a small waist or narrow shoulders that you need just one size up and then to bring those in a little bit. Because sometimes, even with foundation garments, too tight is too tight.

Also ladies in the 50's were better about deportment which when used slims the abdomen and ribcage by walking tall.

I'm coming to this thread late. I checked the box for what I would wear if it is fitted. Some styles are blousy with no bust darts, so then I would buy a larger size and look at the shoulder to shoulder measurement to get an idea of the size .
