They should be a special range of clothes for fat bastards. Giving that these types of clothes are generally baggy (don't fit the wearer), It would be great to see people wearing circus tents.

On another point why do rappers always wear big fuck off baggy suits at award shows, with big massive shirt collars and ties. Looks like they're kids who have been playing dress-up with their old boys clothes (even though most of them don't have dads and probably dressed up in there mums clothes eg. The Game).
