On today’s blog post, I’m sharing a list of outfit ideas for plus size folks who are looking for masculine clothing, androgynous outfits or who identify as butch!
This blog post is all about plus size masculine and androgynous outfits.
Masculine of Center, Androgynous & Butch Plus Size Outfits
I’ve wanted to put this round up of plus size masculine of center outfits together for a while, but something stopped me:
Using words to describe gender is complicated.
And, what the heck do we even mean by “masculine clothing” anyways? Like, clothing has no gender.
Le duh.
Buuuut, people are using these terms to find resources
That said, I *know* that folks are looking for specific style lines and silhouettes when we talk about “masculine plus size fashion.”
I know folks are looking for these clothing items, because they often message me on Instagram asking for outfit ideas and brands to check out. I’ve put together this post as a sort of stylist, sharing plus size outfit ideas and options that some folks may gravitate to. I don’t expect every human to want to purchase every outfit on this list. <3
(I also wrote blog post HERE with a round up of brands that make plus size masculine clothing for androgynous and butch folks!)
If you’re typing those words into Google, it’s because you’re probably looking for plus size clothing that is gender affirming. Generally, folks are looking for:
- Clothing that doesn’t “nip in” at the waist or accentuate it much
- Plus size masculine button down shirts
- Plus size masculine or butch clothing in patterns we typically find in the “men’s” section
- Plus size blazers or suit jackets that look “more masculine”
[Note: This blog post was originally published on August 2, 2021. It was last updated on September 1, 2023. While I do my best to keep my blog posts updated, brands do like to change things up! Please be sure to check all product information with the brand before purchasing, as their info will be the most up-to-date! Ty! <3]
Plus Size Masculine Clothing
SO, because of this, I have put together this list of outfit ideas (with LINKS) for plus size folks who are looking for androgynous, masculine, butch, etc, clothing styles.
I am *NOT* saying that I have the definition for these words, or what these identities mean to their respective communities.
Rather, I hope that this round up of plus size outfit ideas gives folks ideas – and, well, honestly helps you feel seen.
You deserve clothing that you feel amazing in.
You deserve clothing that affirms your identity.
You deserve to play with fashion.
Ok, let’s get started:
WAIT ONE MORE QUICK NOTE! (Ok, 2 Notes)
A lot of these looks are styled with accessories that may not fit your gender identity or needs. Because of this, I encourage you to look at these images and focus on the clothing. <3
Secondly, this blog post was written with folks who grew up shopping (and being forced to shop) in the “women’s section.” These folks often find it difficult to find gender affirming clothing.
Ok, now we can for realsies get started:

# Plus Size Masculine Outfit: Puffer Vest from Universal Standard
There’s this weird idea that “androgynous plus size fashion” means that folks don’t like color.
Definitely not the case!!
I love puffer vests for folks who are looking to dress androgynously, because they eschew specific style lines. I also love that this coat takes up SPACE! The layering with the denim jacket? *Chef’s kiss*!
From the brand: “You may not be a celeb, but you’ll look like one in the fashion-forward Paparazzi Puffer Vest that is sure to turn heads. This plush layer features a high neck, strong shoulders, and has a subtle high-low cocoon shape. With an oversized fit this puffer vest is the perfect layer to add some sophistication and intrigue to any outfit.”
