I'm trying to change my style to a more casual sophisticated look.
I want to wear v-neck sweaters & collared shirts.
And also instead of baggy clothes i want to slim it down a Lil bit with some Hood's and shirts.
but I'm a tall 6'5 200lb male and i don't want my clothes to look tight or small/short.
So i was looking for some help on this subject also any sites or clothing labels that caters to this type of style.

bc you are a bigger guy. you want to look for styles of clothing to fit your shape, not necessarly labels. any clothing company has casual denim (jeans). You'll want to stay with a strait leg or a denim that is more strait in the thigh area (i work at AEROPOSTALE and we call this style Authentic bootcut, compared to our Orginal bootcut that is looser in the thigh area which will look too baggy). Also, stay away from any pleated pants (these look like that fabric is gathered up in the front by the pockets). Pleated pants will make you look bigger, stick will flat fronted pants. Any pants or jeans for guys are sized by waist and length, so you dont have to worry about them being too short, just buy a longer length.
For shirts, you will look best in collared shirts that have little stripes in them, or an all neutral colored shirt. getting wide stripes will make you look bigger as will bright all one color shirts. to make sure you have the right size, bring the size you think will fit you and a size bigger and smaller into the fitting room - try on the middle size, then stretch your arms out in front of you, the length of a long sleeve shirt should come right below that little bump on your wrists. as for short sleeves, raise your arms up above yoru head. the shirt should move freely - not stuck to your stomach nor should your bully button show
It seems like you like the style of clothing that is in store like the one i work at, Aeropostale and others like it for instance; American Eagle, Hollister, Abercrombie. Some stores that are a little more dressy are Express or Banana Rebulblic. Most of these stores have Sales Associates that will be more then happy to help you. just tell them exactly what you asked here. you want some collared shirts and some slimmer fitting jeans.. they will help you find your size and get you set up with a nice outfit. i hope this helped

You will be able to do this easily. I have a friend that is about 6'0'' and he is probably over 200lbs but he still dresses very nicely. There isn't anything wrong with the way you look, but wanting to dress more nicely is understandable. A clothing label that you could go for though is American Eagle. They offer a wide range of sizes that look nice on guys, and of course, they have collared shirts and stuff like that. Try it out, I hope this helps!

It really depends where you live with the label thing...

In australia, We have Tarocash, Roger David etc.. who are all about this style of clothing.

Ralph Lauren, and sometimes Deisel to cater for it.

And Deisel jeans are made long... so are perfect for the tall guys :)

If you don't want them looking to tight, buy a size bigger, maybe? Or just try it on and see what you think....

That's always a bright idea.
