How do you style an oversized fit?
When it comes to styling oversized clothing it’s best to go bigger on the top and smaller on the bottom, for example an oversized jacket with a fitted mini skirt.
This tends to be a fail safe option as it allows you to keep your body’s proportions without losing the oversized fit.

How many sizes bigger for an oversized look?
The trick would be to not go too oversized with your blazer or outerwear as it can risk looking boxy and being a bit too big.
To avoid this we’d recommend sizing up by one or two sizes in regular fit blazers/coats, or sticking to your usual size if the blazer/coat already states to be oversized.
Be sure to take a look at the PLT size guide onsite if unsure.
Another way of ensuring to still show off your silhouette when styling oversized blazers would be to keep your base layers fitted or cropped as well as opting for drop shoulder detailing for any oversized coats or jackets.

Oversized or baggy doesn’t mean it has to look ill-fitting or big, for example oversized balloon sleeves give a classic and elevated statement look.
