Not On Board With Oversized Coats Trend: You Are Wrong, This Is Why

I get it, a streamlined look can look polished and put together, but most of the time they don’t provide that effortlessly chic look we all crave. Sometimes wearing fitted suits and coats may look like a result of extra effort, instead of a natural one and it may feel too stiff. An oversized coat will save you from looking too rigid, but mostly it will grant you the flexibility to wear that fitted blazer underneath. If you’re on the shorter side, try a mid-length coat and if you are on the heavier side, try one with a belt.

Three benefits of an oversized coat

It lets you wear your favorite blazers underneath. Perfect to wear them over suits to go to work or on top of a blazer.

Layering on top of jackets and big sweaters is terrific. I love an oversized coat over thick sweaters or jackets because it adds that great overlayer, very fitting for cold weather without feeling bulky.

It’s timeless. Yes, oversized jackets and coats are merely timeless and elegant.
