How tall are you, what is your skin tone, how much do you weigh, etc?
I'm a tall dude, likely a lot taller than you're used to seeing in everyday life. Not sure if I'm a good person to ask, but I'll still talk about it.
Since I'm tall, I automatically stand out and try to always look at least decent. I stay gym/casual when I can just because it works for being a taller guy. Joggers, hoodies, compression leggings and shorts, and some nice light shoes (Adidas Boost, etc). For a bit more, I'll usually rock something from Zaras or Ralph Lauren, or something I ordered from Jacked Threads. The brand does not really matter, just the fit/cut and how it looks
on you. I used to have a lot of issues with finding clothes that would look decent on me but I started taking cues from bigger and taller cats. Everyone from Chris Hemsworth to male models to like Badr Hari to NBA athletes. I'm not trying to copy them, I'm just trying to find what looks good on them and kind of adapt to that.
I also do the custom shirt thing online and that has worked out well.
Things that tend to work for
me:
Mandarin collar shirts
Tops like this:
DARK TOP - View all-T-SHIRTS-MAN | ZARA United States
Trusty tanktop
Oxfords:
Short-Sleeve Oxford Shirt
--- Or I'll rock a custom Oxford that looks similar to:

There is a lot of other stuff, but those are some of the basics. I used to try and rock stuff like the Shia LaBeouf vintage military look
:

or the Lenny Kravitz look
, or something like that but I could never really pull it off. I just looked and
felt (which is most important) awkward and long.
One of the reasons I rock the Rick Fox avi is because dude taught me a lot about style and embracing my body type. I remember an interview where he said, "yea, I used to try and rock the Italian custom suit look with Kobe, but then I realized it just didn't work with my body."
shyt was a revelation to me B. Rick Fox is
that dude and even he had to figure this stuff out. Even he had to go through trying to look like something he ain't before embracing what he is.
Hope some of that made sense man.
