Yes, unfortunately when the “vertical” strip isn’t laying vertical, it is no longer flattering. But, I have to say, I have “grown” to accept my “diagonal” stripes. :)
When you’re carrying around too much — I’ve been there; I must have gained and lost the same 50 pounds a half-dozen times over the years — shirts that button down the front are never comfortable, and don’t look good. Think polo shirts. Or a hoodie. Or in extreme cases, a toga….

I think the gaps between the buttons are the real culprit.

If vertical stripes are slimming, why are they never on the racks?

In all my life, I’ve never seen anyone look good in stripes no matter what direction they were going!
