Wear Mastery Strategies:Avoiding the baggy look

Covering up love handles, bellies and other body parts judged as too flabby with larger clothing adds even more volume to one's appearance. Fitted clothing always makes you look slimmer, even if some of your body forms show. 
I say "too baggy" and the response is "but it is comfortable." Is that really true for you? Extra layers of fabrics molding and folding around you? Does it not sometimes feel slightly cumbersome? Like walking around in a blanket, which you might trip over?
I do understand that there may be an emotional need of wanting to hide. I had those moments and oversize clothes fulfill that requirement.  
Nowadays we do have stretchy fabrics woven into jeans, dresses and tops and fitted clothing is much more comfortable than it used to be decades ago.
