Whatever your body type, trendy and flattering clothes can help you feel more confident and comfortable. If you are overweight and don’t know how to dress, don’t worry! There are many options to help you look more handsome and stylish. For any outfit, proportions, fit, and comfort are key. Choose well-fitting clothes, body-contouring fabrics, and complementary accessories. Above all, wear clothes that make you really comfortable!
Steps
Wear clothes that fit your body shape
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/98/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/98/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose clothes that fit well instead of baggy or tight clothes. Avoid hiding your figure with baggy clothes, as it can make you look sloppy and disrupt your body’s proportions. Clothes that are too tight are not much better. The trick is to buy clothes that fit you. [1] X Research Source
- Make sure to choose the right clothes for you right from the start. You may have to buy new clothes later if you lose or gain weight, but the right clothes can make you look better now.
Tip: If you don’t know your size, ask the staff at the clothing store for advice. If you’re apprehensive, you might be more comfortable shopping at a boutique that specializes in plus-size men’s clothing.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/05/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-2-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-2-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/05/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-2-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-2-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose a V-neck shirt instead of a round neck, boat neck. V-necks help elongate the face and neckline, so look for this collar style when shopping for t-shirts and sweaters. On the contrary, a boat neck will not detract from the focus and can increase the roundness of the face. [2] X Research Source
- Nice and sharp V-neck t-shirts are often very functional. You can wear a V-neck top and linen pants to a barbecue or pair it with a blazer for a casual business look.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/34/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-3-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/3/34/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-3-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-3-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Look for button-down shirts with wide necklines to match your round face. The distance between the neck corner of the shirt is called the opening. When shopping for button-down shirts, look for ones with wide collars to balance out your face and round necks. [3] X Research Sources
- Ideally, choose a collar angle that opens more than 90 degrees. Observe where the two collar edges meet at the top button and form an angle. This angle must be greater than 90 degrees.
- Narrow collar is not suitable for round face. Narrow collar will make the face and round neck look bigger.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e4/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-4-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-4-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e4/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-4-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-4-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Pair with straight-leg, medium-waisted and pleated pants. Stand up pants can help balance the ratio between legs, waist and belly. Pants with wide thighs will be very suitable if you have a large midsection but have small legs. Ankle-length flares are fine, but don’t wear them too long (unless that’s your style!). [4] X Research Sources
- Slim-fit jeans (almost like skinny jeans) with wide thighs and tapering slightly towards the shins can make your legs look smaller and make your midsection look bigger.
- Pleated looks can make you look fatter, so choose pants with a flat front.
- Also, choose clothes with a long hem, especially if you are short. They can help stretch your body. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/db/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/db/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Make sure the shorts don’t exceed the knee length. The shorts you wear should fit snugly and be about knee-length. If the shorts are too long and reach the middle of your shins, your shins will be small and out of balance. Your waistline will look bigger. [6] X Research Sources
- When you’re overweight, it’s important to focus on your body’s proportions. If your legs are too small, the rest of your body will look bigger.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/7f/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-6-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-6-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/7f/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-6-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-6-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wearing a 3-button blazer with wide lapels will improve your look. A blazer is an ideal choice to flatter your figure and give you an elegant look. Look for jackets with square shoulders and three buttons to make them look longer. [7] X Research Sources
- Always button down the center button of your blazer. Whatever you want to wear with square shoulders, be sure to avoid shoulder pads. Shoulder pads can make you look fatter.
- Avoid jackets with thin lapels, as it will throw off your balance and make you fatter.
Tip: When wearing a blazer, wear a pocket scarf to draw attention from belly to bust. [8] X Research Sources
Choose fabrics and colors that flatter your body
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8a/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-7-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8a/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-7-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use lightweight to medium-weight fabrics to avoid the feeling of bulkiness. Pocket pants, hoodies, and oversized sweaters made from thick fabrics can make you look fatter. Cotton, linen, and other naturally thin fabrics are wise choices. If you sweat a lot, natural fabrics can also help keep you cooler and prevent sweat stains. [9] X Research Source
- Although thin fabrics are often preferred, remember that you are trying to hide body flaws with clothing. Fabrics that are too thin and sticky won’t cover your entire body. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/81/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-8-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-8-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/81/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-8-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-8-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose vertical stripes and avoid horizontal stripes. Even a very small matte pattern on the fabric can create a vertical line and elongate the body. Vertical stripes will make you look slimmer, but remember that horizontal stripes can make you look fatter. [11] X Research Source
- Regardless of the model or style, you need to be modest when wearing stripes, and do not wear the whole outfit with stripes at the same time. For example, you can wear plaid pants, a V-neck t-shirt, and a dark jacket for the meet and greet at work. Or you could go to your lunch date in a striped shirt and dark trousers.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/fb/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-9-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-9-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/fb/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-9-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-9-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wear dark colors, but don’t just wear all black. Dark, dark colors will become your best friends! Navy blue, bronze, dark blue, dark brown and black are all colors that help in slimming. On the other hand, light colors can make you fatter. [12] X Research Source
- Although dark colors are effective slimming colors, that does not mean that your wardrobe will be colorless and look monotonous. Enhance your outfit and wear darker colors instead of just wearing all black. [13] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/04/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-10-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-10-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/04/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-10-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-10-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose neutral dark colors instead of colorful patterns. In general, try to avoid patterns with lots of stripes, small plaids, and any clothing with prominent horizontal stripes. Shirts with bold, colorful patterns can draw attention to your midsection and make you look fatter. [14] X Research Source
Tip : If you’re going for a patterned outfit, wear less colorful patterns, such as polka dots, large paisley prints, or large checkered squares. Large and less colorful patterns are more suitable than complex patterns with small details.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/93/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-11-Version-3.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-11-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/93/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-11-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-11-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Take advantage of color schemes to accentuate body proportions. People are often attracted to light colors while bold colors will help to look less fat, so you can take advantage of this color scheme. For example, if you have smaller feet than your midsection, light pants and a dark top can help balance your proportions. [15] X Research Source
- If you are short and fat, avoid too sharp contrast. For example, avoid wearing a black top with light khaki pants. The stark contrast will create a horizontal line in the middle, making the belly bigger and making you shorter.
- If you want to keep color contrast to a minimum when you have a chubby body, light colored tops can draw attention upwards and elongate the body. For example, try wearing a medium to dark blue V-neck sweater and black pants.
Be wise when choosing accessories
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/0e/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/0e/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-12-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-12-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Try replacing your belt with a trouser strap. It takes time to get used to trouser straps (also called trouser straps), but many guys find them more comfortable and supportive than belts. The belt will give you a better figure, as the belt will divide your body in two and focus the attention on your abs. [16] X Research Source
- Trouser straps go well with casual and formal business attire, and would look great with an eye-catching jacket.
Tip: If you wear less formal clothes and want to wear a belt, choosing a large belt will complement your figure better than a small belt.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/5d/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/5d/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-13-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-13-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose large, simple watches and jewelry. If you like to wear watches, choose designs that are large and proportionate. Same goes for tie clips, rings, bracelets, and any other piece of jewelry. [17] X Research Source
- As a general rule, jewelry should always be in proportion to your body proportions. A large watch worn on a small wrist looks funny, but on a large wrist it will be more balanced.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/80/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-14-Version-2.jpg/v4-460px- Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-14-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/80/Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-14-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-14-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Choose wide ties and knots. Look for ties with at least 7.6cm wide tongue. Since proportions are so important, a wide tie will complement a large bust. On the other hand, a tight tie can make your torso look larger. [18] X Research Sources
- Similarly, a wide knot, such as the Windsor style, can give balance to a wide neck and face. Remember that a button-down shirt with a wide collar is a great choice for voluminous bodies. The split neckline will create plenty of space for a wide Windsor knot.
- Make sure the tip of the tie touches the top of the belt and is not lower than the bottom of the belt buckle.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/ea/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-15.jpg/v4-460px-Dress-Well- As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-15.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/ea/Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man- Step-15.jpg/v4-728px-Dress-Well-As-an-Overweight-Man-Step-15.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Carry your essentials in a briefcase or bag instead of bags. Keeping your wallet, cell phone and other items in your pocket can make you look fatter. To avoid stuffing your clothes bag and avoid drawing attention to your waistline, you should buy a briefcase or crossbody bag. [19] X Research Source
- If you feel embarrassed when carrying a handbag, don’t think of it as just a man’s handbag! A briefcase can convey a message of responsibility and connection, and a backpack or leather crossbody bag is perfect for casual style.
Advice
- Confidence makes a big difference! Wear clothes that make you comfortable and confident, and try not to be too shy.
- Good posture can also help you look slimmer, so stand up straight and keep your head up! [20] X Research Source
