I'm gonna say that you need to decide which you want to do first: Get yourself in shape or get new clothes. Because if you ditch your old gear and spend $$ on clothing, then lose weight or change your shape thru lifting, you're going to have to start from scratch again.
Before you decide, know that a lot of fashion/style clothing cuts are based on physically fit or slender fit models. IMO a better investment than clothing or a personal shopper would be a personal trainer. I don't know your bone structure but if you can get down to, say, a 32-34 waist and 40-42" chest you'll be able to fit in most designer's L sizes. Anything bigger than a 36" waist and 44" chest and you're back to the mall brands -- or at least severely limited in your choices.
Besides, if you get in shape, then drop a ton of dough on clothes, that will incentive to stay fit.
Good luck...
I'm comfortably a 36'' waist now. I have very broad shoulders from sports a few years ago, and still have a pretty massive chest at about 48''. I'm not "fat" .. Just a little bit of a gut. Which will go away by winter (working hard on that as well). I've thought a lot about this as well... I guess with that much more information, what do you think?
