f:id:plussizemensclothing:20220324203721j:plain

There was a time when men, regardless of their body shape and size, used to get fashion advice from slim people whose fashion guidelines seemed more like an attempt at patronizing the bigger-sized individuals.

However, those were the bygone days, and thankfully with increasing awareness, fashion is now all-inclusive. While there is an increase in wardrobe variety and clothing options, there is also a lot of information that you can leverage to make the right clothing choices so that you look good and feel confident.

If you are plus size and looking for ideas to amp up your look, here are a few tips and tricks you can incorporate into your wardrobe.

Get the right fit

Whether you dress casually or for a formal affair, it is never a good idea to wear baggy clothes. If you are trying to hide behind the baggy and bulky clothes, you are only drawing attention to your bigger frame. Instead of making you look dressed up, baggy clothes tend to make one look frumpy. So, the next time you are shopping for clothes, consider getting outfits that are the right fit and avoid getting bigger sizes.

The right fabric

One of the critical aspects you need to consider while shopping for outfits is the fabric type. The right kind of fabric that complements your appearance can instantly improve the look. So if you are bulky, consider getting outfits in lighter fabrics that define your shape. You can always add a well-fitted jacket or another form of outerwear to combat the cold. However, it is better to avoid bulky or heavy fabrics that only serve to add more volume to the shape.

Structured outfits

One clever technique that fashion gurus always preach is visual trickery. There is a lot you can achieve with the right wardrobe choices. Your silhouette plays a major role in how you look and if you want a leaner appearance, consider adding structure to your outfit, for instance, wearing well-fitting trousers and keeping the shirt tucked in.

Consider adding statement pieces like smart belts to add definition to the overall look. It is good to consider pieces that add structure to the overall look without adding volume to make you look bulky. For instance, you can wear a smart-fitting jacket that frames your shape and defines your structure without adding more volume to your appearance.

Solids

You may have heard this several times before, but solids are a great wardrobe choice if you are plus size. Now, we are not discouraging you from buying prints, but consider getting smaller, discreet prints, checks, or stripes that look elegant and complement the look.

If you are conscious about certain aspects of your physique, you can consider adorning dark monochrome clothing to make you feel comfortable yet confident in your wardrobe choices.

However, this doesn't mean that you should completely steer away from light colours. Light-coloured clothing is stitched well and fits nicely can look great. Similarly,  if you are not bulky in all parts, you can reserve lighter-coloured wardrobe choices for the slimmer areas and use darker colours for areas you are not very confident about.

Lastly, whatever you wear, own it and wear it with confidence and grace and embrace your style. When you are confident in your own skin and what you are wearing, it shows in your personality and overall appearance.
