To truly flatter a tall man, clothes shouldn’t be too big and baggy or too tight and clingy. You’ll want to check your closet and keep these tips in mind the next time you hit the shops:

• Nothing Too Baggy

Steer clear of baggy clothing; flapping fabric is very unattractive.

• Nothing Too Clinging Either

Avoid wearing very fitted suits and jackets, because you don’t want to advertise stick thin arms and legs.

• Avoid Vertical Lines

Opt for horizontal lines with glen plaids to help you look a little meatier. Minimize vertical lines as they accentuate your height.

• No Shoulder Pads

To avoid looking like a lollipop, don’t wear blazers or jackets with big shoulder pads.

• Check Your Top

0Make sure your top fits comfortably around your chest and shoulders no matter how big they are.

• Check Your Pants

Your pants should be worn over your hips. Also, be sure to wear high-rise pants. They have a longer distance between the crotch of your pants and the top of the waistband.

• Check The Break of Your Pants

Make sure your trousers fall freely on your shoes and avoid revealing your socks.

Hopefully, these tips can help you look better. Who knows, once you start noticing the difference a few small changes can make, you might be ready to tackle your shoe collection.
