It's bad right now because most clothing manufactured for young people is made for a waif-like figure to fit well and look good in, because that's the popular model sillhouette. The alternative is getting plus sizes, which (if you're young and slim in other places) don't fit, either. You may as well wear a baggy T-shirt and have done with it! I mean, there are quite a few slim, toothpick prepubescant young women walking around who fit the stuff, true... but there are just as many in a variety of sizes who don't, who have to wear T-shirts or else make our own clothes!
I meant the proportion of her ribcage to her waist to her hips. That "final woman form". It's typically less-pronounced in the teen years and shifts until you stop growing.
As for topic: I've been a D/DD (US) my whole life, on a size 10-12 frame. Any shirts that fit my breasts don't fit in my shoulders or waist. Anything that fits in my shoulders and waist makes me look like I could apply for a job at Hooters. And get it.
