It's not too big, you're just rocking a "French fit", which is all the rage these days among the retro crowd.
Kinda like a high-fat diet, big flexible frames used to be considered a bad thing in the '90s and '00s, but are now considered benign or even good by many in the know, and (of course) were always espoused by the French.
