– What is a blazer?

Its origin

Basically a masculine jacket, the blazer has been fully integrated into the women’s wardrobe since the 1920s and the great creative era of Gabrielle Chanel. The term ‘blazer’ comes from the English ‘to blaze’, flamboyer. Today, its colored and printed variants make it a strong asset in your wardrobe.

The blazer has thus become a suit jacket for everyday wear. It dresses you up in the blink of an eye and gives you a lot of style. It structures your bust thanks to its V-shaped closure and goes very well with several types of bottoms.

Cuts and materials

The blazer has two cuts:

• The fitted cut that marks your waist, approximately hip length. It can be short or a little longer (and in the latter case it can also be crossed thanks to four buttons instead of one or two).

• The straight cut that gives you verticality and elongates you, with a length up to the beginning of the thighs. This is the quintessential suit jacket.

In terms of materials, choose wool or cashmere in winter; cotton, silk or linen in summer.

You can also find two other models to favor or not according to your personal tastes:

• The tweed version, straight, short and with a round neck. It is worn in a two-tone mottled version with jewel details such as golden buttons. Be sure to offset this rather stuffy jacket by combining it with pieces of an opposite style: sneakers, boyfriend jeans or leather pants for example.

• The tuxedo jacket, which must be black with a shiny satin collar; straight or curved if you want to play more or less on its masculine-feminine side.

Why is the blazer at the heart of your style?

At the same time timeless, elegant and stylish, the blazer is at the heart of your style because it is an effective all-purpose piece that has character at the same time. Pretty good, don’t you think? What does not spoil anything, it is also very feminine when it is well chosen and well worn.

In addition, the blazer can give a touch of style to any outfit, even the most basic. A white t-shirt + jeans + sneakers can take on a completely different style depending on the type of blazer that accompanies them.
