Sorry is someone else has already addressed this subject, but I just had to
respond to the above statement. Big-chested women do NOT look their best in
a tux. I have to wear one in one of the performing ensembles I'm with, and
it just looks ridiculous. The shirt poofs all out below your chest, and you
feel like you've got a big white tent down there!
