Black Widow's Boobs

If you haven't seen it yet, new character posters for Black Widow, Nick Fury and Thor have been released to promote Avengers: Age of Ultron. In case you didn't notice after looking at the blant Blog title, I want to focus on Widow's for a bit:

I know a lot of people are focusing on the glowing addition to the Black Widow costume (some complain and some blindly let Whedon do anything because he is a comic book movie god), but I'm focusing more on her costume's chest area.

Hear me out: I just noticed this is her first costume that seams the fabric around ScarJo's boobs!

When I see female comic book costumes it always bothers me that the fabric molds into the perfect female body. Especially to show where the boobs are. Wether we are male or female, we all know where the perfectly round, and totally inaccurate, boobs are!

I've taken a few art clases and I know clothes don't mold themselves to the body that way. I know; I made this mistake before in my art. Especially because you learn anotamy first...

Now this movie is doing exactly the same thing... I know it's late to be complaining about female super hero costumes since everybody else on the Internet does it but... c'mon:

I couldn't find a screenshot from The Winter Soilder, but this still gets my point across.

Accentuate her sexy body all you want. I mean it is Scarlet Johanson we are talking about here. My question is, why is there a need for the costume department to mold the costume to her body, or more specifically, her boobs? They are literally inventing clothes in order to show off her boobs.

Excuse the rant. Sayonara!
