A character is getting ready for a date with a beautiful girl or a party with his friends. He has just finished showering and has just put on some cologne, but when it comes time to put on his clothes, he puts on his pants, but when he puts on his tuxedo, he finds that he is having problems trying to button it. Just when he finally gets the suit all buttoned, the buttons suddenly pop off after a few seconds and fly in different directions. Apparently, the character has either gained weight, or the suit is not as big as he remembered it to be. This is a Comedy trope in which a character has trouble buttoning his shirt or pants, because he has either gotten too fat or the clothes are too small for him. Of course, there are also some cases where when the shirt is buttoned, the buttons don't pop off, but the shirt is completely stretched out at the buttons. It's also happened with belts as well as it also happening at the breasts. You can see this trope pop up in most forms of media. Can go hand in hand with Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing, Temporary Bulk Change, Breast Expansion, Hulking Out or Balloon Belly. Can also lead to a Fat Flex, if the clothing was hiding some well-concealed flab. While it's not quite this dramatic in real life, this is to some extent Truth in Television. Pregnant women do sometimes experience this, especially with the more form-fitting varieties of maternity wear. It also happens to teenagers, because hormonal changes can sometimes cause you to suddenly gain weight or muscle. A woman's pelvic bone needs to grow during puberty, but not very much so sometimes this can happen over a single night. It's just enough growth to burst the buttons on your skinny jeans. Also, a woman's breasts actually get larger as she gains weight: so this can happen with dresses or shirts that might otherwise fit. Obviously this is more common with formal wear which tends to get stuffed into the back of your closet until you need it. Compare Splitting Pants. |

The TaleSpin episode "Gruel And Unusual Punishment" had Baloo getting ready to go to the Pilot's Ball with Rebecca, but when he gets his old tuxedo all buttoned up, the button pops off and ricochets all over the room. It was a sign that Baloo definitely needed to go on a diet. | |

Instead of Popeye's traditional "Popeye the Sailor Man", Wimpy sings "It's bad to be tar-dy to a ham-bur-ger par-ty, says Wimpy the Bur-ger Man", and two buttons pop off of his shirt in place of Popeye's "toot toot." | |

American Dragon: Jake Long has 2 examples. In "The Long Weekend", Jake's dad, Jonathan, was wearing his old Cougar Scout uniform, from when he was a kid, and the buttons popped off because it was too small. In "Furious Jealousy", Jake's been on a junkfood binge, making his belly so big and fat, it popped the buttons on his shorts. |

My Dress-Up Darling: Happens to Shinju Inui a couple times when doing the Souma-oniichan cosplay. Gojo tries to lend her his school uniform for it, but the first time she tries it on without any chest compression, the size of her breasts pops the buttons clear off mere moments after she fastens them. It later happens again during their photoshoot, as once the Sarashi and B-Holder give out, her chest comes loose and the buttons presumably snap off (offscreen) again. | |

Snorkle raiding the refrigerator one night, he warns the Sarge what might happen if the last button pops off of his shirt. In the extended dream sequence that follows, Sarge's belly grows so big that his last shirt button pops off, enabling him to swell up even further into a human balloon. | |

In D-Frag!, Takao usually doesn't bother zipping her gym jacket up, due to her breast size, but wanted to prove she wasn't just too cheap to buy a new uniform when she outgrew her old one. She managed (to great applause), but later popped the zipper with enough force to knock Kenji out. | |

In Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory, this happens to Violet when she turns into a giant blueberry (her belt pops off and the rest of her outfit is stretched out down to the buttons). | |

In an episode of The Critic, Jay tries on some new clothes and makes a whole song about popping the buttons off of his shirt. I'm, too tubby for my shirt (pop), too paunchy for my shirt (pop), so bloated it huuuuuuurts (pop, pop). | |

In one chapter of Sgt. Frog, Natsumi tries to brush off having put on a few kilograms over the winter by pointing out to herself that it doesn't really show... then a button tears off her skirt as she's getting dressed. Cue Keroro discovering Natsumi doing aerobics in her room with the heater turned up. | |

Happy Heroes: In the "Fairy Tale Adventure" story arc's take on Cinderella, Cinderella (played by Miss Peach) is portrayed as being overweight due to an eating problem. During the ball, Miss Peach eats a piece of cake, causing the buttons on her dress to pop out and hit a nearby robot attending the ball, some wine glasses, and one of the lenses on Doctor H.'s glasses. | |
