Invest in a plus-size fit that really suits you

Struggling to find clothes in larger sizes can feel like a nightmare. This article is for you!

Ready-to-wear brands impose their standards and struggle to meet the needs of their customers, especially those requiring larger sizes. Finding brands that offer a wide range of sizes and cuts tailored to specific body shapes can be a real challenge. Indeed, ready-to-wear clothes are often simply "enlarged" in bigger sizes without considering the unique characteristics of a rounder physique. The body changes differently beyond a certain weight, requiring a complete rethinking and adaptation of patterns. Unfortunately, these adjustments involve additional costs that most brands are unwilling to bear.

  4. The shoulder seam is slightly rounded to follow the natural lines of the body.

FAQs plus size shirts

Why are ready-to-wear big size shirts not always suitable?

Most brands only make shirts wider without adapting the pattern to a rounder body shape. This leads to discomfort, excess creasing, or tightness around the stomach. LE CHEMISEUR® optimizes every aspect for a perfect fit.

How do I keep my shirt tucked in with a large belly?

LE CHEMISEUR® shirts have a longer front than back, so your shirt stays neatly tucked even when you move or sit for hours. This ensures a flawless look at work. See details

What if my shirt rips at the button or the elbow?

A shirt that rips usually lacks room at the stomach or sleeves. You probably need a wider cut in those areas. LE CHEMISEUR® offers personalized adjustments for every critical area and a 100-day Fit Guarantee for free remakes. Learn more about the Fit Guarantee

Can I easily order a large size custom shirt online?

How do you prevent the shirt from pulling at the belly?

Ensure you have around 2 cm of extra fabric on each side of the stomach. Overly fitted shirts will cause tension at the buttons. Custom tailoring lets you adapt the fit exactly to your shape. See tips on adjusting the waist

Choose natural, breathable fabrics: cotton poplin, linen for summer, lightweight flannel for winter. LE CHEMISEUR® offers materials for all seasons. Guide to fabrics - Choosing your shirt

Which patterns and colors help you look slimmer?

Vertical stripes lengthen your silhouette and dark colors make you look slimmer. Avoid big checks and very light colors that highlight the stomach. Find suitable fabrics at LE CHEMISEUR®

Should big men choose shirts with a pocket?

A chest pocket draws the eye upward and helps balance your silhouette, especially if you want to attract less attention to your belly. For a clean look, skip the pocket — that's always possible with custom shirt brands like LE CHEMISEUR®.

Can you wear a fitted shirt with a belly?

Yes, if it's custom cut for comfort at the tummy, with no button strain. Custom tailoring is the best way to combine elegance and ease.

How should larger men accessorize a shirt?

Go for a wide tie and a sober, properly sized belt to visually balance your body. A blazer is another great option to add structure.

Which shirt collar is best for a thick neck or double chin?

Classic closed collars, such as French or Neapolitan, add length to your neck. Avoid very wide or high-cut collars. Adjust collar size to your actual measurements. Fit Key info - collars
