Rebecca & Drew Makes Custom Shirts for Women

As every professional woman knows, it is difficult to find the perfect fit in a button-down shirt. Men have it so easy, with entire franchises built around making sure their shirts fit well. Rebecca & Drew is working to change this double standard, and we have to say: they're doing a darn fine job!

The photo at right is from their adorable shop at 344 West 13th Street in New York City's West Village. I headed down there to see what all this buzz about "fit shirts" and "custom design" was. I was not disappointed!

For starters, the shirts have specially-placed buttons so that you never get that "from the left you can see my bra" effect. They come in two fits: "Soft and Smooth" and "Strong and Confident." From what I gather, this means "has a small waist" and "has less of a waist." The shirt sizes are based on that and bra size. Why haven't we been doing this all along?

Once you know your Rebecca & Drew size, you can order any of their items online and know that it will fit. And if you happen to order the wrong size your first time? They'll exchange it no problem -- they'll even pay the shipping.

Have a look through our gallery where I try on one of the fit shirts, explain how they work, and show you a couple of our favorite items. The basic Rebecca & Drew shirts are $195, $175 for short-sleeves. Get one here!
