As workplaces are transforming and suits aren’t always necessary, here are some business casual essentials that every plus size guy should have in his wardrobe:
- Denim in different materials and colors. So you can wear dark-colored and thicker materials in Winters while light colors and skinny jeans work best for Summers.
- Dress shirts. Instead of wearing 3 piece suits, you can easily wear these formal shirts with jeans for work. If you’re buying printed ones, make sure to keep it simple and non-invasive.
- Bomber jackets. They can be a good alternative to the traditional blazer and I recommend having at least 3-4 different bomber jackets as part of your wardrobe. At least 2 of these should be in neutral colors so they can be paired with most of your shirts.
- Camel coat. This is another wardrobe essential for men as it’s easy to layer under and it looks great on plus size men. Moreover, the color is sure to make you feel good whenever you wear it.

The color of the shirt and sweater contrast fabulously to turn these simple elements into a wonderful outfit.
