How to make men's oversized outfits look stylish? Cordage examples & recommended items

In this article, we focus on oversized outfits, which have been gaining popularity over the past few years, and introduce tips on how to coordinate them well!

First, let’s review what oversized means!

Oversize refers to clothing made to a larger size than one’s own body shape. It is one of the three main size categories (tight, just right, and oversize), and is characterized by its loose silhouette. The loose silhouette makes it easy to hide weak points in the body line, and its somewhat relaxed atmosphere fits the current trend, making it popular since the mid-2010s. Currently, all brands, from street brands to maison brands and fast fashion brands, are offering oversized items.

Simply sizing up is not enough to create the oversized look of today’s fashion!

What you need to be aware of when creating an oversized outfit is the silhouette. Careful attention should be paid to the silhouette, as easy choices such as simply sizing up the clothes you normally wear have the disadvantage of making the overall balance look bad and making the legs look shorter. Therefore, for creating a seasonal look, the best choice is oversized clothes while keeping the length to orthodox dimensions. Tops that are just the right length with broad shoulders and body width are easy to balance with bottoms and look fresh and stylish.

If you want to incorporate oversized clothes into an adult coordinate, choose one that is not too fussy!

If adults are going to wear oversized clothes, they should pay more attention to the balance of the silhouette so as not to look childish. Rather than the shoulder-lined, full-bodied tops often seen in street brands, the oversized tops worn by the men shown here, with the shoulders slightly sloped, are more suitable. This top can be easily matched with tapered slacks, which are standard bottoms for adults, and a modern look can be achieved immediately. It is also important that the neckline is not loose.

For example, here are some combinations…

Oversized outfits in monotone for a stylish look

One of the characteristics of oversized clothing is that, for better or worse, the presence of the wearer increases dramatically. In other words, one wrong move can make you stand out from the crowd, but the quickest way to avoid this is to use a monotone color scheme. By combining everything from tops to bottoms, shoes, and accessories in white, black, or gray, you can create a sophisticated outfit with a sense of unity. This is another oversized dressing strategy for adults.

The use of gold accessories gives this oversized outfit an impressive look.

The combination of wide shorts, mid-cut sneakers, and mid-cut socks gives this street coordinate a skater-like atmosphere. Like the above coordinate, it is also monotone, but the gold accessories are accentuated rather than suppressed. The monotone color scheme is also effective in making the use of accessories look stylish.

Choose leather shoes for an oversized outfit to give it a more mature look.

In addition to the navy and white color combination, the use of leather shoes on the feet gives the outfit an elegant look. The oversized T-shirt is tucked in for a more mature look. Combined with the tapered white pants, the look is truly smart.

For example, this combination…

Oversized shirt tucked in with the front open for a light and stylish coordinate

At the most recent Pitti Uomo, we saw many fashionable people wearing oversized shirts tucked into the front. By tucking the shirt in, the clean white T-shirt is differentiated from the others, while still making the most of the clean look of the shirt. Furthermore, the sleeves of the T-shirt are pulled out from the shirt sleeves and rolled up to create a sophisticated atmosphere. This is a coordination full of techniques that we would like to refer to.

A tone-on-tone combination of top and bottom makes this oversized casual coordinate beautiful.

An oversized white T that does not pick up the lines of the body is paired with ecru-colored pants to achieve a tone-on-tone look. The clean color combination makes the casual coordinate look beautiful, which is a good point. The black sneakers on the feet keep the overall look from becoming blurred.

Oversized shirts and shorts can also be combined to create a fresh silhouette.

If you are looking for an oversized summer look that makes a difference, take a look at the oversized shirt and over-the-knee cargo shorts for a fresh silhouette. It is also a good idea to take advantage of the shirt’s stooped silhouette without tucking in the arms or tucking in the shirt.

For example, a combination like this…
