GlossaryWhat Is A Fit Check? Amber EllisSeptember 29, 2025
Fit check and #FitCheck are ways to spotlight an outfit, usually on social media. It is basically “check out my outfit” packaged for the feed.
Deep Dive
Meaning: “Fit” is short for outfit, and “check” means look it over. Together, it cues a quick showcase of what you are wearing.
How it is used: People post a mirror selfie or a short video, then say “fit check” or tag #FitCheck. It often includes brand tags, prices, or where items were thrifted.
Formats: Full body pan, point at each item with on screen labels, or a jump cut that reveals the final look after a GRWM.
Platforms: Big on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, also common in Stories.
Variations
Airport fit check – travel look
Gym fit check – workout clothing
Seasonal fit check – “fall fit check,” “NYFW fit check”
Related slang: OOTD (outfit of the day), GRWM (get ready with me), drip, soft launch (subtle reveal)
In the wild
“Quick fit check before brunch.”
“Festival fit check, thrifted the jacket, sneakers are vintage.”
“Do a fit check in the comments, rate mine 1 to 10.”
Usage tips
Good lighting and a clean background help.
Credit designers or link dupes if followers ask.
Keep the caption short, let the visuals do the work.
