Loose and baggy clothes style? What's it called?

Hello!

Let me just preface this by saving I've never kept up with fashions so I have little more that a basic knowledge.

Spent my 20's in skinny jeans, vest top, and a cardigan.
Spent most of my 30's in whatever was to hand because I had kids and had health issues.

Kids are older now, I'm well again, 40 is looming, I'm perimenopausal and I'm fed up of feeling like I look shit.

I want to start building a new wardrobe but a thoughtful one and not just 'oh that will do'.

I am 6'1", size 10/12, so I'm limited to buying from tall ranges,.

I recently had an interview, I wore wide leg trousers with a loose fit, fine knit top, with a knee length cardigan over the top and felt really comfortable and confident in it.

I've always liked the layered, sort of hippy/counsellor, look but I don't know where to start.

Anyway, if anyone could help start me off with a link or even a proper descriptor for the style I like I can Google it myself. 😁

Thank you.

It's called lagenlook, have a look at Gudrun Sjoden and Poetry.

And uniqlo. You're basically their target demographic.

Look at Plumo, Toast, Rundholz, Sahara, Masai

Yes Lagenlook.

Thank you; you all gave me exactly what I asked for but turns out I asked for the wrong thing. 😂

I should've said I err on the side of smart-casual rather than casual.

You sound like you have a fabulous figure. I suggest having a look at MyTall40s on insta. She’s your height, your age, I think she’s a 10, and she always looks smart/casual fabulous.

I second Mytall40's for you

Hello, do you have any stores where you buy your baggy clothes? I'd like to get some nice pants because i work from home and want to feel comfortable
