Not every Man is Born Glamorous, Blessed with a Lean Built or a Sturdier Natural Physique.

However, the truth is that nothing can still stop you from looking your best if you know your body well.
You haven’t won the genetic lottery, never mind, but with appropriate clothing and grooming, you can make the best of what you have got.


If you are dealing with weight issues marred with a not-so-confident appeal, do not stress, read these fashion tips and learn how to compliment your body.

1) Strip The Stripe

One of the most prominent fashion faux-pas an overweight man can make is by wearing horizontal stripes. They are a strict no-no, so are the diagonal stripes as they tend to focus one’s attention on areas that you’d want to hide. Instead, wear vertical stripes which draw attention downwards. That makes the silhouette elongated, thereby making the person look slim and thin. Pinstripes suits are best suited for bulky people. Wear it with a crisp black shirt, and rest assured people will believe that you have thinned down.









2) Tight FrighT

We know we are stating the obvious. But even if you come across a garment that’s oh-so-perfect, but doesn’t fit you properly, steer clear from such pieces. Your clothes should always fit you well. Clothes which are tight would reveal all your bumps and lumps that you’d rather not draw attention too. Alternatively, loose clothes will hide your fat but will make your body look huger. Fish out for clothes that smooth out on your body.



3) Go DemurE

Say no to bold prints or loud patterns. Why? Because it will make you stand apart and will put your upper body in focus. Also don’t opt for contrasting colours, as that will make your bulky middle evidently visible. Try wearing clothes with similar or single shades, dark or solid colours, which will help you in creating a leaner visual impression. A black on black, for instance, will never go wrong.






4) V For VictorY

Try wearing V-neck sweaters and T-shirts because they help create an illusion of elongated neckline. It will direct the focus on the chest area instead of the neck region, which will help especially if you have a double chin. Also, wear shirts with pointed collars and full sleeves for a much slimmer look. Turtle necks and round-neck T-shirts should be totally shunned away. They hide your neck making you look shorter and thereby fatter.




5) Low-rise Is The New Wise!

Wear low-rise trousers that cover up the hips instead of wearing denims that hit at your waist. Also, make sure the waistband of your trousers accommodate your mid-section entirely so that the belly does not protrude out over the pants. That will make your torso look bigger and your legs shorter- which is not an attractive combination. Wear pants which have longer hem and no pleats.




6) Hit The GyM

We couldn’t resist ourselves, but yes, that will work in the best interest for anybody. Have a diet plan approved from your dietician and shed those extra kilos. Although, it goes without a doubt that one should be comfortable in their own skin but try and invest your little time in exercising. After all, getting in shape can be the best thing ever!
To sum it up, don’t stress too much about how you look, a confidence stance can bring a much bigger change in you than new clothes. And these tips will only help you become a confident man.
