I'm interested how you are washing them.

@151949 I wash them in cold water on delicate cycle and hang to dry.

See, I have no desire to have to put that much effort into a t shirt. I want my casual clothing to wash on regular perm press and dry in the dryer on perm press. I do not have anywhere to hang up clothing to dry. The only clothing I hang to dry are swimsuits, which I put in the BR over the shower curtain rod.

I am a pear shape and I think the design of the TSV would be good for my body but I just dislike that lace so much! Money saved!

I don't like the seaming or the elbow length sleeves.

@151949. Well, probably best that you avoid D&C lace products

I hang almost every top I own to dry. Not bum around shirts but pretty much everything else. I got in the habit of doing it and it's just a thing now. Doesn't take me any longer to do so because sometimes well ok most times I leave clothes in the dryer too long and they wrinkle. Hanging them up if I need a wrinkle out I can throw it in the dryer on medium for a minute and they're good to go.I have a shower that doesn't get used so that's where I hang everything.

I find that the dryer can ruin clothes.  I just tumble for a few minutes and then hang to dry.

I agree this TSV is a good fit for an hourglass or a pear shape. The length of the sleeves balances the hips nicely. Looked great on Jane last night! I actually didn't think it looked as good on the narrow hipped models...And as usual the top didn't increase in size proportionately so on lovely Maria it was just baggy...

I bought a top with 3/4 length lace sleeves from D&Co a couple years ago. It was very pretty but that nylon lace did not stand up to laundering. It pilled and stuck to itself - seemed like a very poorly made fabric. I ended up donating it after only one washing.

I love the style of todays TSV and would buy a couple if it weren't for having that same nylon lace sleeves.

I had the exact same experience. After one washing.

I hung mine to dry and washed it on gentle cycle. It still fell apart.

soon as I read "fitted thru the bustline" I clicked out. Gary has been making the mistake of tightening in at the underarm and thru the bust, lately.

I'm gonna quit buying his clothes because of this.

I order a 'L' and it has always been perfect, but, starting this yr. I noticed his clothes started getting to tight under the arm pit and no stretch across the chest any more. 

I blamed it on overseas manufacturing by folks who are smaller then we Americans, but, in watching the TSV video I see where he's doing that intentionally.  "Fitted".   Leaves me out.  Jackie, in the video needed to size up too.   I won't be buying.

I noticed both Carolyn and Jacquie needed to size up.

IMO, those two usually need to size up.
