To wonder why no clothes suit me

[user1496262496]

I am 5’10 tall, 49 years old and do an outdoorsy sport that means I have broad shoulders. I teach this sport professionally at a high level. I am size 18/20. I feel like a beast. I don’t have any non-outdoor type clothes. When I try on regular clothes I end up looking terrible… old, frumpy… think Nanny from Count Duckula or Matron from the Carry On Films. This is really getting me down. I really don’t know where to start. AIBU to ask where to look for nice things…

What sort of thing are you looking for?

If you're fit and sporty you can probably make the 'athleisure' look work for you in all but in the most dressy settings.

Are you me? I'm 5ft 10, broad shoulders and feel like a lumbering giant next to my friends

I'm about 5'8.5, but quite broad and all legs so people always think I'm taller . Getting trousers to fit are a nightmare and "short" dresses and shorts are always too short. Can't win 🤣
