It looks like the noted line “fit is everything” has become obsolete. Avant-garde fashion is continuously growing and oversized clothes are officially the new thing as it has been affirmed by a number of luxury brands such as Alexander Wang and Balenciaga. While many still choose to be old school and lean towards the perfect fitted look when going to a night out, stylists and fashion goers today are encouraging everyone the fashion principle of less emphasis on the human figure but rather, appreciating the garment as a whole and embracing the harmony between comfort and style. The trend has caused mixed reactions however we’ve compiled a few oversized suit looks that will potentially make you appreciate it better.
Oversized Suit With Fitted Bottoms
Leg-hugging trousers or pencil skirts will complement the oversized suit making the whole outfit balanced and pleasing to the eyes. Jeans may also be worn for a more casual look.
Shop the look: Oversized blazer, $89.99, available at MANGO
Oversized Suit With Oversized Trousers
Talk about comfort! You may look casual to some but just remember to pick the right fabric and style to successfully pull off this look. Wearing a pair of swanky high heels will instantly glam up the whole outfit.
Shop the look: Oversized Double-breasted blazer, $99.90, available at Zara
Oversized Suit With Belt
Putting a belt on accentuates your figure and diminishes the boxy look of the blazer. You may choose to layer underneath with a basic tee or turtleneck or if you’re ambitious, treat the blazer as your primary top. Make sure to pair it with fitted bottoms to complete the outfit.
