OS: BLAZER EDIT
Since starting my brand in 2017, I’ve focused on creating premium quality products at affordable prices by keeping my business small and selling directly to you, my amazing customers. I’m often asked about adding more items like denim, coats, and blazers, and whilst I never say never - right now the market is very crowded, so I’d prefer to share my knowledge of design, sourcing, and manufacturing to help you find the best of what’s available. Through years of experience in designer fashion, I've learned to distinguish timeless quality across varied price points. So what better place to start a new series - there is plenty I don’t make, but it doesn’t mean you miss out on what I would be considering if I was in the market for a blazer. Here are 5 blazers I love, starting from $199. Enjoy!
MINI CHECK
Isabel Marant Mini Check Blazer
100% Wool, unlined with bound internal seams, making this a super versatile, tran-seasonal option that can be easily layered. Thanks to the Wool this will be warm in Winter and cool in Summer. A perfect option for travel or commuting. The surface texture creates just the right amount of interest.
Suggested styling with our A-Line Leather Skirt and La La Tee.
TUXEDO
PINSTRIPE
A great value option, 100% Wool fully lined in Viscose. Classic Navy with a subtle chalk pinstripe in a twill weave. The slim line, narrow front with single breast concealed closure creates a premium, modern look.
Suggested styling with our Navy Stretch Leather Jogger, La La Organic Tee and Rue Silk Shirt in White.
RE-SALE
The Real Real Maje Blazer New with Tags
According to the BOF, re-sale will make up 23% of global retail sales by 2027. That's an enormous number and re-sale is a fast moving category. If you're new to re-sale, it can take some getting your head around, as its a crowded market with varying quality. Starting with a legacy site like The Real Real and looking for items that are brand new with tags is a great way to find value for money while building your confidence and knowledge in this arena. Here's a fantastic blazer from the French retailer Maje. It's fluid fabrication ensures there's no bulk when cinched with the self-belt, and you can remove the belt for an oversized, flowing silhouette.
Suggested styling with our Black Stretch Leather Boyfriend and Rue Silk Shirt in White.
NEUTRAL
Not to be confused with the White Tuxedo option, a neutral blazer is an essential, wardrobe foundation piece. This designer option from Swedish cult favourite Toteme is currently 50% off and is Viscose/Wool blend that is fully lined and and features a 2 button, single breast closure. I love a longer line option, as it creates versatility and elongates the silhouette.
Suggested styling with our Camel Stretch Leather Boyfriend.
