What Is Glamoratti? How to Wear the Baggy Suit Trend This Fall

Glamoratti brings back '80s power dressing with roomy suits, sculpted shoulders, funnel necks and chunky gold. Here's how to wear the oversized suit trend so it looks intentional, not borrowed.

What is Glamoratti?

Glamoratti is Pinterest's name for one of its big 2026 trend predictions: an '80s-inspired take on luxury built around roomy tailored suits, sculpted shoulders, funnel necks and bold, chunky gold jewellery. After several seasons of quiet luxury and barely-there logos, it swings the other way. The look is polished and a little dramatic, and it's meant to be noticed.

Pinterest based the prediction on its own search data, which showed searches for "baggy suit" up 90% and "80s luxury" up 225% on the platform. Fall is when that turns into something you can actually wear. Wool suiting, heavier knits and layered jewellery all make more sense once the temperature drops.

The baggy suit: roomy on purpose

The centre of Glamoratti is the oversized suit. Picture a blazer with a strong, structured shoulder and a relaxed, boxy body, worn with wide-leg trousers that pool slightly over the shoe. Double-breasted styles lean most into the '80s mood, but a single-breasted blazer with a generous cut works just as well.

The trick is that oversized should look chosen, not accidental. A suit that is simply too big slips off the shoulders, gapes at the neck and swallows the hands. A suit that is cut to be roomy keeps its shape. The shoulder seam sits where the designer intended, the sleeves stop around the wrist bone, and the volume lives in the body and the leg.

Sculpted shoulders without the costume feel

Strong shoulders are what make this trend read as Glamoratti rather than just a relaxed suit. They create a clean, confident line and give the rest of the outfit room to be loose. If full '80s padding feels like a lot, look for a blazer with a structured but natural shoulder, or a slightly extended one, and let the fabric do the work.

Balance helps here. Wider shoulders pair well with wider trousers, so the outline stays even from top to bottom. A cropped or slim trouser under a big-shouldered blazer can work too, but it takes a more deliberate eye.

Funnel necks, belts and chunky gold

The layer under the blazer matters more than usual. A fitted funnel-neck or high-collar knit keeps the neckline clean and adds warmth, and it's one of the details Pinterest named directly. Cream, black and camel are easy starting points.

A wide leather belt over the blazer is the easiest way to give an oversized jacket shape without changing its cut. It pulls the waist in wherever feels right to you. Then add the gold: one chunky cuff, a stack of bangles, or bold earrings. Pick one statement piece rather than all three if you want it to feel more everyday.

How to wear Glamoratti day to day

For work, wear the full suit with a funnel-neck knit and loafers, and add one gold piece. For weekends, break the suit up. The oversized blazer goes over straight jeans and a tee, or the wide trousers go with a chunky knit and sneakers. For evenings, go all in with the belt, the gold and a heeled boot.

You don't need a new wardrobe to try it. A blazer you already own a size up, or a thrifted '80s or '90s suit, can get you most of the way there. Vintage tailoring is often ideal for this trend because much of it was cut with this silhouette in mind.

Oversized still starts with the right size

Here's the part that surprises people. Roomy suits still depend on fit, just in different places. The shoulder width, sleeve length and trouser rise decide whether a baggy suit looks sharp or sloppy, and those measurements vary a lot from brand to brand. One label's oversized medium can fit like another's regular large.

Before you size up, check the brand's size chart against your own shoulder, chest and inseam measurements. Then decide how much extra room you want. Knowing your starting point makes it much easier to choose volume on purpose.

Shaku can help with that starting point. Take two photos and get your body measurements, then see your best size match against a brand's actual size chart, so your oversized suit is roomy exactly where you want it. Find My Size — free for 7 days.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Glamoratti trend?

Glamoratti is a Pinterest Predicts 2026 trend that brings back '80s-style luxury: roomy tailored suits with sculpted shoulders, funnel-neck tops, wide belts and chunky gold jewellery. It's a bolder, more glamorous follow-up to the quiet-luxury look.

Should I size up for an oversized suit?

Not always. Many oversized blazers and trousers are already cut with extra room, so your usual size may give you the relaxed look. Compare your shoulder, chest and inseam measurements with the brand's size chart first, then size up only if you want even more volume.
