Shirt reconstruction.
I have a long torso.
And big boobs.
And I’m tall.

After, a hot interesting, long, ooh-la-la top:
I scooped the neck, added some stretchy black fabric as a band, attached some double wide bias tape for the back tie, and fashioned a cute birdie applique to the front. (I attached that with fusible double sided webbing.)
I used this cute little guy as my stencil (I simply silhouetted him out in Photoshop):
