Jeremy Allen White should be in the middle of your menswear moodboard right now. Yes, because he's a hot chef in the hottest show of last year (The Bear, in case you lived under a rock), and yes, because he was a frontman in the hottest Calvin Klein campaign of last year. But also because every single guy can pick-up his latest fit and fly with it.
Spotted on the streets of Los Angeles (not at a farmer's market this time), White had this whole baggy fit thing on lock. Up top, he wore a white cotton shirt with the top two buttons undone and the sleeves rolled up, and everything's been left untucked for a super casual vibe. It's the same kinda story down south too, with a pair of slightly loose-fitting light wash denim jeans that aren't too short and aren't too long. This is just right.
It's miles apart from the tight T-shirts that the Brooklyn-born actor wears on The Bear. But even though it's a lot baggier, what White isn't drowning in his clothes. The cut of his shirt still has some structure, and while his jeans are definitely on the bigger side, they're just the perfect length to show off his fave trainers of all-time: the Nike Cortez.
But that's not to say that all slouchy fits need to be made to measure. Take Justin Bieber, for example. His entire wardrobe is obviously two or three (or four) sizes too big for him, but he keeps it consistent. He's not pairing a 9XL leather jacket with slim-cut trousers. That would be wrong! Instead, he's going all-in with the enormous proportions, and that just works too (albeit on the madder side of the menswear scale).
But if you want to emulate a more solid, wearable rotation from Jeremy Allen White, repeat after him: White shirt. Solid jeans. Classic sneakers. You've got this, buddy.
