 You'd think with all the breast enhancement surgery going on that it
 would be easier to find shirts/blouses/etc. for a good-size
 rack/pair/your euphemism.  It also makes me wonder how women who are a
 size 0 except for the bust manage with dresses (probably stretch
 material, right?)

Here in the UK, there's a new chain of bra shops "Bravissima", for the "curvier girl", with a generous selection of designs for the larger breasted woman - including swimwear and a few shirts. It has been excellent for me, as they have a wide range, and for the first time I have choice. Unfortunately I have to drive to Cambridge (UK) to shop there. Talking of which, gloat, gloat, I was sitting in King's College Chael, behind the choir, for the festival of nine lessons and carols this Christmas. It was truly wonderful, especially gazing at the 16th century Flemish glass, and listening to hymns contemporaneous with it.
