The Art of Layering: How to Style Oversized Tees
The oversized tee is the foundational garment of modern streetwear. But wearing it wrong can leave you looking like you are wearing your older brother’s hand-me-downs. Here is how to style it with intention.
1. Proportions are Key
If your top is huge, balance it out.
* Skinny/Slim Jeans: Creates a "V" silhouette. Classic rockstar/skater vibe.
* Baggy Cargo Pants: Leans into the "anti-fit" aesthetic. Ensure the pants break nicely over your shoes to anchor the look.
2. The Hoodie Underlay
A classic move. Wear a slightly shorter oversized tee over a hoodie. Let the hood and sleeves pop out. This works best with contrasting colors (e.g., Black Tee over Grey Hoodie).
3. The Mock-Neck Stack
Layer a tight-fitting mock neck or long-sleeve striped shirt under your oversized tee. This adds visual interest to your arms and neck area while keeping the boxy torso silhouette.
4. Accessories Matter
An oversized canvas needs framing.
* Chunky Sneakers: Balance the visual weight of the shirt.
* Crossbody Bags: Break up the large fabric expanse of the torso.
