Fashion hacks to dress well as a chubby man
Let your outfit shun all judgments about you! Styling yourself the right way doesn't only make you confident but also does justice to your body frame. And if you are a chubby man, it becomes all the more necessary to not appear more wide or large than you are. Below are some excellent fashion tips to help you dress well.
Say no to horizontal stripes
Clothes featuring horizontal stripes should never make it to your wardrobe. The reason? Well, horizontal stripes can make you appear wider and shorter. They can also draw one's attention to your body parts that you are not confident showing off. Instead of that, clothes with vertical stripes are suitable as they give out the illusion of a slender and taller body frame.
Skip baggy or tight cuts
Baggy clothes are trendy but sadly, they aren't useful for chubby men as they can make you look sloppy. Even tight or body-hugging garbs can take the shape of your figure, promoting self-consciousness. The trick is to rather invest in well-fitting clothes that fit you exactly the way you are. Measure your sizes accurately while shopping or get your clothes stitched by a tailor.
Choose a V-neck instead of a round/crew neck collar
A V-neck collar elongates your neckline and adds more length to your face, especially if you have a large/round one. However, ensure that the pointed collars do not fall too far down the chest. Now as you wear this, you may fear your neck coming out as too bulky. That's when your beard can come to your rescue as it can hide that area.
Stick to straight-fit pants and avoid skinny ones
Chubby men should steer clear of skinny fits or slim-fit styles when it comes to pants as these make their legs look disproportionate and exaggerated. Instead, you can safely opt for straight-fit pants as they help balance your legs, waist, and stomach. Additionally, avoid trousers with pleats as they can add unwanted bulk to your lower frame.
Ensure your shorts don't go beyond your knees
If you are someone who loves wearing shorts, make sure you are wearing them the right way. Your shorts should fit you snugly and finish right above your knees. If they fall past your shins, your legs could appear smaller than they are and your waist larger than it is. A small bottom body frame can instantly make the upper frame appear much wider.
