fitted shirt

Body-hugging button-up

A fitted shirt is cut to follow the contours of the body rather than hanging loosely.

The term distinguishes from relaxed or boxy cuts: He prefers fitted shirts that show off his physique.

Fitted shirts taper at the waist and have narrower sleeves, creating a more tailored silhouette without being skin-tight.
