We love the oversized trend because it’s just so comfy while looking effortlessly stylish. Oversized pieces can serve as one of those “backup outfits” that you stash in your closet for when you don’t feel like dressing up, but still want to look fresh and chic. Here are a few outfits to inspire you:

This is the ultimate oversized piece that still manages to look stylish. The rich berry colours paired with the thigh-high boots in a complementary hue make a huge statement, and it’s easy to wear, too – just be sure to wear safety shorts. You can also add a burgundy or black velvet ribbon choker for extra sass. Photos: Kenzo/Net-a-Porter, Zara
This look is very simple but still captures the oversized look. It isn’t always about bulky sweatshirts and baggy pants; large flowing pieces are good too! Photos: Zara, Superga
The thing about the oversized trend is that it can look super covered up, which is not actually a bad thing! Throw the long jacket over the basic tee and you’re pretty much set. Balance out this look with sexy thigh-high boots. (Ahem, safety pants!) Photos: Zara, Mango
Throwing in something special in the matchy-matchy mix makes for a good outfit. This particular look may seem unorthodox at first, but tuck in the front of the oversized white T-shirt into the track pants and you’ll end up looking deliberately “messy” in a super cool way. #Effortless glam, made all the more stylish courtesy of the pop of red on your feet.

This ensemble is ultra stylish and super streamlined. Pair this with some equally sleek shades (cat-eyes are a definite yes) and people are going to think that you’re a celebrity!And again, remember to wear safety pants! Photos: Acne Studios/Net-a-Porter, Zara
This is one of the more head-turning oversized looks on our list. A plain white crop top can be layered under the coat, or you can simply button up the coat for a sleeker military-inspired look. To emphasise the vaguely Japanese vibe of this outfit, wear it with kawaii white sneakers with high socks. Photos: Zara, Adidas, Topshop
When putting together an oversized outfit, it’s generally a good idea to not have more than three pieces put together. And if the coat like the one above is heavy, balance it out by layering it over a skin-baring crop top. Wear this with nude or black heels and you’re good to go. Photos: Zara, Mango
The oversized trend is all about layering! Layer the sweater over the shirt, and if you aren’t feeling the large trousers then substitute it for slim black trousers. Photos: Zara, Mango
