Squeezing into tight jeans or a body-hugging dress might seem fashionable, but it can seriously impair your comfort and health on a long flight. Airplane seats are often narrow and leave little room for stretching out, so restrictive clothing can hinder your ability to move around. Worse, it can contribute to poor circulation, leading to issues like deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a condition where blood clots form in deep veins, usually in the legs, due to long periods of sitting still.
Wearing loose, breathable fabrics like cotton or linen allows for better circulation, reduces the risk of swelling, and helps you stay comfortable during your flight. If you prefer fitted clothes, try layering them with a loose cardigan or wearing stretchable fabrics like leggings or joggers.
