As someone who's had to relearn a few things about personal fashion...
I have come to realize personally that such large garments are an
attempt, at least by me, to hide who I was inside by hiding behind the
oversized garments I wore on the outside. It had nothing to do with
fit, but personal body image and a lack of self esteem.
