Working demo in this demo StackBlitz Demo

You need to add below css code in app.component.scss..

::ng-deep .auto-width {
    .mat-form-field {
       width: auto !important;
    }
    .mat-select-value {
       max-width: 100%;
       min-width: 100%;
    }
 }

In order to detect and apply style to deep level component you need to add ::ng-deep before class name .auto-width. and other option is you can add .auto-width class inside style.scss file so that every component will use this global css configuration.
