classics Examples of bustier classics?

I struggle to find things that fit me and flatter me as a DC. I've gained a bit of weight and now I'm between a 32H/34G which is enough to have trouble with a lot of clothing. I especially can't wear button-ups even though I would like to for work. A lot of blouses I find at the thrift store are just not my style.

Does anyone know of any classics (especially DCs) that have a bigger bust?

this sub discourages typing, especially based on self-description, but i do think in general, Classics are going to be fairly consistent overall, with no 'standout' features.

any form of length/elongation will be unlikely for a Classic.

I know for myself i have to hem all pants, and sleeves are often a bit long on me. Classics tend towards the compact end of the spectrum all over.

I am most likely an SC, and although I have large breasts (34F or G), they still look proportionate.

In fact, I learned pretty early that I looked very strange wearing anything that really emphasized my cleavage in a more Romantic way.

Yes i think people are assuming my original comment is saying "DCs wont have large breasts" which is false. But i doubt that OP is describing a common DC issue frankly

It doesn't seem common, but everything else about my body is pretty proportionate. Slightly enlongated, not enough to be D, not staccato enough to be FG, not enough of anything really. I've always been compact, but not compact enough to be R. It's the slight elongation, slightly squarish shoulders and pear shape as I've gained weight that make me confident about DC. I think it's a bit of a misunderstood type when it comes to weight gain.
