The most important measurement for looking big in clothes - Interscye distance

[EverythingMattersCel]

This one is easy to measure and you don't need callipers for accuracy, unlike biacromial and bideltoid length. It's a common misconception that solely delts and clavicles contribute to looking big in a shirt. In reality, the back is equally if not more important for looking big in clothes.

Boulder shoulders for a strong v-taper topless but a back with wings for looking big in a shirt.

Delts give the thickness. Shoulder circumference is definitely important in motion. Shoulder width is still more important than circumference though because broad shoulders and a small waist look dimorphic from a frontal view. Still, I would argue back size is an underrated metric that is often overlooked here. I have never heard anyone talk about interscye distance before.
