A new fashion trend dubbed “old man style” is now taking over young Chinese women’s wardrobes as they increasingly seek comfort over beauty with oversized men’s clothes to combat body-shaming.

Chinese Gen Z May has recently discovered a whole new world during a shopping trip with her father. Delighted by the fit and feel of men’s clothes, she started wearing them not only for comfort but to “feel respected again.” 

Swooping in to save the day, the rise of the “old man style” has given women like May a newfound way to dress comfortably and confidently that goes completely against the grain of typical Chinese beauty standards.
