I’m 5’4" and a 10DD (I think that’s a 32-34DD) - and avoid standard t-shirts like the plague. If I do wear them I can get away with a small (I’m narrow through the back, shoulders and small waist), but they tend to hang directly down from the twins giving a boxy shape I hate. I would only recommend you buy the shirt if it’s a little shaped, in which case I’d go with the medium given her size).

Better yet, buy her shoes - regardless of the chest size, shoe size is pretty standard, and most girls love shoes! (Me anyway…)🙂

Absolutely. Anyone who is built that disproportionately should be wearing tailored clothes. Otherwise, it looks like you threw on a tent. That look is never cool.

Well I’m 5’4" with 34 D, and I can usually do fine with a medium shirt. However, I have not heard of this thing called a “standard medium”. I’ve only ever been frustrated because with women’s clothing there is very rarely ever standard sizing, and it very much depends on the brand.

I expect many of them are looking forward to breast reduction surgery when they can afford it.

I’m a 34DD, which isn’t as busty as a 34F, but it’s close. Medium is too tight on me and I generally wear size large tee shirts.
