How should one choose an oversized coat?
When choosing an oversized coat for adults, choose a coat with drop shoulders and gently sloping raglan sleeves, which create a relaxed and loose atmosphere. It is difficult to express a modern layered look. The key to a fashionable oversized coat is a gentle shoulder line. Power shoulder type with set-in sleeves and shoulder pads gives an old-fashioned impression, so drop shoulder or raglan sleeve type is recommended for a more modern look.
However, many fashionable people wear oversized coats with shoulder pads to achieve a mode approach. Although the difficulty of balancing the overall look is quite high, it is a good idea to try it out while exploring the ideal silhouette in front of a mirror.
