Morphology

buttony = button (transparent) = button + y

Formation is the productive adjective-making suffix '-y' added to the noun 'button' meaning 'having or covered with buttons', which is directly inferable.

Etymology

Buttony comes from button plus the ending -y, which means 'full of' or 'having'. So a buttony shirt or jacket is one that is covered in buttons.
