baggy

This term describes a lack of tension or structure, evoking an image of fabric that folds and sags rather than clinging to the body. It is most frequently associated with a relaxed, casual, or intentionally oversized aesthetic in fashion, often carrying a connotation of comfort or a specific subcultural style. When applied to items that were once tight, such as socks or elbows of a sweater, the word implies a loss of elasticity or wear and tear. In these instances, it suggests a degraded state where the material has stretched out and can no longer return to its original shape.
