Top down. It's my shirt - I'll button it how I want, DAD.

Thumbs into collar to orient, line up top button but do not button, button from the second-to-top button down to the bottom.
If I'm not wearing a tie, the process is complete, top button not buttoned.
If I am wearing a tie, this is when I put on and button my pants (if I'm not wearing a tie my shirt isn't tucked in and my pants went on before my shirt), flip up the collar, button the top button, tie my tie, and flip down the collar.
This is my reasoning also. I wear a button up shirt nearly every day. And always button starting from 2nd to the top and go down from there. Buttoning from the bottom up seems totally unthinkable.
The only correct answer is the middle out method.
I start from the top down, get to almost the bottom only to notice it's uneven, and let out a heavy sigh as I have to undo all the buttons before resorting to matching the bottom hems and rebuttoning from the bottom up.
I put on my shirt from the top down.
But I put on my pants from the bottom up.
Top to bottom, always. Whether putting one on or taking it off.
