Spring-Summer Looks for Big and Tall Men

As the weather warms up, it's time for men to lighten - and brighten - things up for the summer. Kristen Pascucci of Rochester Clothing and Casual Male XL has some tips on the latest trends for big and tall guys. She also suggests some stylish and comfortable outfits appropriate for various spring and summer events. And these ideas might help anyone looking for Father's Day gifts.

Kristen says, look for:

  • Bright colors: a pop of color adds so much to a look – from a bold polo to a brightly-colored pattern.
  • Plaids: plaid has a lot of personality. From preppy patterns to more traditional favorites, it's easy to work into your wardrobe. Try it bold, in a subtle windowpane or even an overprinted pattern with a little more attitude. It's definitely the style to have for summer.
  • Cargo pockets: they are popular and trendy this summer.
  • "Many of our shirts also are technically-treated to help keep guys cool and dry - whether they're on the golf course, working out or at work in an office," Kristen adds.
