some of us are built with dad bots but when it comes to finding good style resources and advice
it's pretty limited that's why i'm here to give you five style tips on how to dress with a dad bod
right now tip number one is to avoid fitted clothing because it doesn't compliment your
body very well dad bots sort of fall onto both sides of the spectrum when it comes to
body types you can be on the muscular side as well as on the huskier side at the same
time with a little bit of differences on both sides of the spectrum buying directly fitted
sort of this one size kind of fits all type in like medium or large or whatever size
it it's not going to be great because yeah you may get a great fit across your chest your shoulders
your arms that feels really good but then you can get a crappy fit around the waist and really
highlights the muffin top and we know if you notice that it makes you look fat in one area
you're going to not feel your best wearing that so i suggest you would avoid going with stuff that's
fitted or even on the slimmer side because again they are meant for guys who are muscular and lean
not muscular and husky tip number two is to go with slightly oversized shirts to help build up
your chest and delts we're going for that classic v taper look maybe you are working out right now
you're putting in the work but this is an instant fix that can work if you have a shirt that's a
fits really well across the chest and delts and is a little bit roomier throughout the waist it
is going to highlight that v taper it's going to make your chest your shoulders your traps look
way more developed and actually hide some of that muffit top giving you the illusion of having an
instant v-taper the shirt that does this the absolute best is my gp basic tees that are wrinkle
resistant breathable and yes slightly oversized i spent two years developing the shirt to make it
fit your absolute best for guys who are built with dad mods like myself and guys on the larger side
with plus size options going up to a 3 xl the key here is the three centimeter mock neck actually
makes your chest and your traps look wider the sleeves they come down but they fit very snug
so you get a nice relaxed fit and through the body you can't see the muffin top yes i do have
a gut but this shirt hides it as best as possible but still keeps you comfortable it fits well it's
wrinkle resistant and it's 50 percent off and it beats every other brand unico it beats essentials
in terms of price fabric quality and you can actually find something in your size that works
for your body type you can pick it up in the link in the description tip number three i'm revealing
some of my secret sauce and it is the oversized sweater tucked in trick this is great for keeping
your body looking proportionate and comfortable as well as it is meant to highlight the actual
outfit in terms of the pieces that you're wearing and your color coordination rather than dressing
for your body type what i like to do here is like to pick out a nice oversized sweater a nice
loose fit i like to have a nice pair of pants the pants could be on the fitted to looser side
usually if they're a bit loose at the waist you can get a much better tuck because you can always
adjust it with a drawstring waistband or maybe there's some elastin worked into the fabric
or even a belt this keeps your body looking proportionate and it draws attention towards
the fit and since we're going with an oversized top your torso length is proportionate but you
don't get any of the attention to the muffin top or problem areas and you're highlighting your
style your outfit and not your body we're dressing modestly man tip number four is to layer with
structured pieces or use light layers in warmer environments this is a super simple thing that
a lot of guys on the larger side already do so i'm here to reinforce it and this is an excellent
fit because you can wear something that is very loose breathable and comfortable underneath like a
t-shirt or a tank well this tank that i'm wearing is not that loose but you get what i mean and if
you have a light layer over like a jacket which is a shirt jacket it can just basically cover
up some of the man boob areas and cover up your love handles and you can still get an excellent
fit and even on the lighter side stuff like floral shirts or really light raincoats provide
a nice structure because you have an extra layer of fabric that can again build up your chest and
shoulders if you wear it open it's going to cover up some of the man boobs and also cover up some of
the love handles again bringing more attention to the outfit rather than your body type tip number
five is to stick to neutral colors neutral colors go great with every body type every skin tone
and with a lot of neutral colors they tend to look a little bit more slimming because what
i recommend you guys do to not just leave you with a pretty bare ass tip is to go with darker
neutral tones i like using this reference image right here for when it comes to neutral tones i
love all these colors they work great but they do feel a little bit plain or generic what you
can do is you can take one of these colors and try to find them in different tones maybe
some darker tones find them in slightly lighter tones some lighter tones in some darker shades
to really elevate dressing with a neutral color palette you'll look at the benefits of the darker
neutral tones going great and complementing your body type by making you look a little bit more
slimmer but you're also elevating your style by really having those fine details working
in different shades of the same color to really make it a tasteful yet a little bit more unique
