Battling with those extra pounds is always a problem. However, dressing up appropriately is not really difficult with the sheer number of solutions available to the modern plus size man. Information is power; so read further and equip yourself with the right information to dress up in style despite those peeking bulges.

1. Invest in a blazer

If you are top heavy, a blazer is a blessing in disguise. It disguises your peeking fat and covers you up in a way that transforms you from fat to fab. Blue is a blazer color that is highest in demand since it is extremely versatile and can be paired with shirts and trousers of many colors. Choosing blazers with vertical stripes or pinstripes further makes you appear leaner.

2. Watch out for wrong sizes

Dressing up in baggy clothes or shopping for clothes that are one or two sizes lower is a bad idea. Don’t purchase clothes considering the shape you have been in or will get into; buy clothes for now and wear only those. Oversized specimens add more volume to your body and will make you appear bigger. Similarly, wearing clothes that are a size or two smaller will unnecessarily divulge all that you wanted to hide. Choose the right fit and when you don’t find one, get your outfits tailored.

3. Hail the V-neck

V-neck tees give the wearer a taller and leaner appearance. The attention in such necklines, is often on the face and seldom the body. This neckline elongates your neck and balances out portions that are rounder and fuller. V-necks are trendier and also make you look slimmer.

4. Choose the right colors

You might like certain colors but remember your body may not necessarily find an affinity to your choice. Black makes you look slimmer may be a cliché but an undeniable fact. Plus size men are better off choosing darker shades to whites and pastels. And also, monochromatic dressing can make you look several pounds lighter.
