All designs, images and border from Lazy Oaf |
Lazy Oaf's style manages to be both casual and neat, giving off vibes of effortless chic while keeping the wearer comfortable. Their photos and styling shows someone who isn't afraid to speak their mind, make weird jokes, but who also likes to be left alone to do their own thing. I can see why they have such a loyal fanbase with this aesthetic.
The overall silhouette is loose, flattering, with interesting shapes. I was inspired to look for sewing pattern inspiration to achieve a similar look in terms of fitting. My aim isn't to copy any pieces or ideas, but to make some wearable pieces that have these silhouettes.
