An outfit may look larger on screen, but its appearance does not mean its hitbox is larger.
What Epic says about Fortnite skins and hitboxes
Epic Games Support uses the term “outfits” for what players commonly call skins. Its guidance says: “Some Fortnite outfits may visibly appear larger in-game, but they do not differ in hitbox sizes.” In other words, a character’s apparent size is a visual feature, not a change to the area the game registers for hits.

Epic also states that “Fortnite outfits are cosmetic only and do not provide a competitive advantage nor enhance performance.” The official answer covers outfits generally; it does not identify a particular skin comparison or quantify how appearance might affect a player’s perception.

Do reactive skins or cosmetics affect play?
Reactive cosmetics can alter their appearance or play sound in response to an action or in-game event, when their conditions are met. Those effects change what players see or hear; they are not evidence of a different hitbox. Epic specifically says reactive kicks do not provide a gameplay advantage.
