Wear Clothes that Make You Look Strong
Slender men are typically viewed as weak. With a less muscular shape, you’ll easily look like flimsy cardboard. Luckily, there is a straightforward way to counter this issue: wear clothes that will make you look strong.
Are there such clothes? Of course, there are. If you haven’t noticed, there are actually slim guys out there that carry a thick and strong look effortlessly.
- Tapered shirts
- Blazers
- Sports coats
- Padded jackets
These clothes give men a more muscular look. They expand the bulk of the shoulders, improve your torso’s appeal by achieving a more desirable V-Shape (smaller waist, bigger upper body), and an overall addition to size.
2. Avoid Baggy Clothes
As per Wesley and Tanya, both promoting slim-fit dress shirts, as much as possible, you should wear clothes that complement your size just right. Wear clothes that fit but not very tight. These two approaches actually have contradictory effects.
Clothes that are double your size will make you look smaller. The tendency is that you’ll shrink behind your oversized clothes and will look much smaller.
On the other hand, clothes that fit you just right will make you much bigger. Allowing your shape to show, you’re displaying the presence of some size underneath those threads.

Take Advantage of Horizontal Stripes
Stripes have their way of making look things wider or taller. Vertical stripes will “magically” add up a few inches to your height instantly while horizontal stripes will increase your size: make you look more muscular.
Know how to work with horizontal stripes:
- The thicker the lines, the shorter and wider you’ll look.
- Distinction of colors means more emphasis on the widening effect.

Increase The Size of Your Neck
Look stronger and more muscular with a “sizeable” neck. You’ll instantly look a bit more buff once you’ve covered that curve along your shoulders and neck.
Try on a turtle neck and see how the magic works. Even a scarf will do perfectly given the right occasion and weather. Always make sure that you don’t only look good but proper as well.
5. Pick the Right Color
Besides lines and shapes, colors also have their own corresponding visual effects on things and us, limbed creatures.
Two cars of the same model will look different when one is white and one is black. Have them parked close together and the white one will stand out. The black one will appear smaller and compact. Why? White makes the illusion of more space or size. All light colors do actually.
This means clothes that are light-colored or white are best for skinny guys like you.

It’s an Investment
What you spend for your clothes is not a waste of money when you are able to improve your confidence and overall wellbeing. It’s an investment you should make. You’ll not only improve your looks but leave a good impression to your colleagues and people you meet as well.
