If it were me, I’d probably redo the side seams. You can put on the top inside out, put in straight pins (parallel to the side seam) where you would like the seam to be. Mark it with a fabric marker and then sew along the line It might not follow along with the vertical stripes perfectly since your seam is more custom but it should have a better fit. Hope it works out for you.
