20 Beautifully Oversized Shirts to Wear with Anything and Everything, Every Day

An oversized shirt is a no-brainer when you want to add crisp, easy elegance to any outfit. This timeless wardrobe staple works at any time of the day, in any season, and can be easily dressed up or down whether you’re headed to the beach, office, or dinner. Plus, it’s easy-breezy levels of comfortable. The non-trend trend for quiet elegance and low-key luxe looks means this wardrobe wonder is having quite a moment too.

Easily buttoned up or down over a tank and slouchy trousers, or a silky summer midi, an oversized shirt is a wardrobe staple for life and there are so many good options to be snapped up right now. Here are 20 beautifully oversized versions you need to add to your wardrobe arsenal for spring/summer 2023.
