She's got the "borrowed from my boyfriend" look down pat.

Bianca Umali has never been the type to shy away from experimental fashion trends. Whether she's going abroad for a work trip or gracing the Eat Bulaga stage, the Preview Best Dressed 2023 awardee is always spotted in an unconventionally stylish OOTD.

She's particularly been obsessed with androgynous dressing these past few months, thanks in part to her stylist John Paul Dizon. Laid-back yet sophisticated, her recent looks are a masterclass in elevating masculine silhouettes and boyish styles! Check out some of her most effortlessly chic looks ahead to glean inspo for your next "borrowed-from-my-boyfriend" outfit.

LOOK: Bianca Umali's Best Menswear-Inspired Looks 

1. We've seen plenty of fashion mavens don boxers outdoors lately, but Bianca took it up a notch and went for a pair of muay thai shorts instead! To balance out the casual piece, she teamed it with an oversized blazer and pointed knee-high boots.

2. Clad in timeless earth tones, Bianca injects a feminine flair into the classic coat and tie combo with pristine white slingbacks. She caps off the look with a matching handbag!

3. Style tip from Bianca: Borrow your boyfriend's favorite graphic tee for an Instagram-worthy ensemble. Here, she layers hers over denim shorts and a collared top, then accessorizes with a bright beret.

5. If you want to mix different prints together, it's best to stick to a cohesive color palette. For example, Bianca ties in the green on her pinstriped top with a plaid vest and a monogrammed bag in similar hues.

8. FYI, tonal dressing can still look visually interesting! Case in point: Bianca's black and white ensemble catches your eye since it seamlessly combines both masculine and feminine elements.
