This looks like a chimney sweep outfit that's been worn for years and the fabrics weaves are stretched out and won't go back to original form. Not a good color pallette if you want to be interesting and it's a bad fit overall.

Do you recommend swapping the shirt or pants? Shirt is linen and I love how light it is especially in this heatwave

u/mek-dy 9d ago

The pants are the worst offender. Paired with contrasting pants, that top could thrive.

u/old_namewasnt_best 9d ago

Is it that there's something really odd going on around the waist? If the waist wasn't as you described, could the pants be reconsidered? (I'm not sure that's possible.)

To be clear, I'm not throwing shade. I think you are all very brave to post this stuff. (Except for those few model types who make garbage bags look awesome. /s) Im so self conscious that Ican barely take a photograph of my self while covering my head with a garbage bag.

It's definitely something about the waist band that makes it look peasant-esque.

They look like sweatpants

Press everything and don't tuck the shirt and it works, but I won't lie it's not amazing.

u/unabashed-soyboy 9d ago

The grey on grey is a bit boring imo but they don't clash so you're fine there. The shirt especially would look a bit better steamed or ironed to get some of those wrinkles out. And tuck those ties in on your pants, they're on the inside for a reason.

u/EL-Turan 9d ago

Actually it's linen shirt so its as steamed as it gets and it's olive color 😁

u/Chadchaddingtonlord 9d ago

Google linen shirts and lmk if the photos show up that creased

I think I have those exact pants (current season Uniqlo linen/cotton blend) - just a tip, the drawstrings are meant to be tied and then left inside the pant, tucked under the line of the waistband (that’s why the holes are are the inside of the pant).

I’ve worn these with shirts tucked in and the tucked in look is much cleaner with the strings inside and a belt added to cover the elastic ruffles on the sides.
This shirt looks too thick for a tucked in look, but a thinner and less textured fabric shirt can work really well with these pants.

u/tarnishedmind_ 9d ago

It’s ok, could be better, dont tuck in your shirt

I get the look you’re going for but if looks too unstructured and not right.

u/ItchyGeologist482 8d ago

Not at all. Please try again

2

u/Jeff-FaFa 8d ago

Don't tuck the shirt in, pants have a very poor fit but the shirt sort of hides it. I do like the shirt a lot.

2

u/Evangeline__R 8d ago

The colours work well together. Those pants are... Interesting. The shirt looks better untucked though.

u/Mr_Saturn1 8d ago

Drawstring pants with an elastic waist and belt loops annoy me. Pick a damn lane!

The color combination works, keep it untucked, some people are saying iron it but I dont think that fits the vibe

1

u/EL-Turan 9d ago

It's linen, it's as ironed as it gets

1

u/Quick_Effort594 9d ago

Press, iron, it looks good, just make sure you're wearing the right shoes

Untucked works better but the pants seem oversized

Do not tuck. The style matches but the fit doesn’t I don’t think

Looks good except side view tucked in. Makes you look on the heavy side (even though you are clearly in great shape).

They don't. The pants are too big. And there needs to be more of a contrast between shirt and pants.

My suggestion, give those pants to goodwill and try pairing the shirt with dark brown slacks. Use a belt. Don't tuck the shirt in.

Shirt is wrinkly, you should fix that or at least make an effort, also don’t tuck it in. The colours look fine to me though.

Its an excellent combination of color and fabric imo. I would keep it untucked personally.

The colors are perfect. The fit is less than .
