Blazers: what are they and how are they made?
Blazers are structured, elegant and versatile jackets. Unlike a classic jacket, the blazer is distinguished by its more defined cut, often featuring lapels and fastening with one or two buttons, making it perfect for both casual outfits and more formal looks.
The single-breasted blazer has a central closure with one or two buttons and a minimalist design, perfect for a modern and versatile look. It easily adapts to both formal and casual outfits.
The double-breasted blazer, on the other hand, is distinguished by two rows of buttons and a more defined structure, often with slightly padded shoulders. This style bestows a more sophisticated and formal allure, perfect for those looking for classic elegance.
The blazer is available in various fabrics, like cotton gabardine, triacetate cady, satin blend, linen, velvet, wool, silk and technical fabrics, to adapt to all seasons and different style needs.
Women’s Blazers: Features and Differences
The women’s blazer stands out for its versatility and ability to adapt to different occasions. The cut, fit and the sartorial details are essential in defining its style and function.
More structured blazers, with padded shoulders and defined lines, give a formal and professional look, perfect for the office or important events. Then there are looser, more deconstructed styles, which offer a relaxed and modern touch, ideal for free time.
Length is another distinctive element: short blazers emphasize the waist, while longer ones, such as oversized styles, create a slender and refined effect.
Closure details are equally important: jewel buttons, knotted belts or zips add character to the garment.
Finally, the choice of fabric plays a crucial role. While cady and wool ensure elegance and structure, satin blends and linen provide lightness and flow, perfect for warmer seasons.

How to combine a blazer?
To mix and match with a blazer, the key is to play with contrasts: a blazer with fixed lines goes well with light fabrics, while a more flowing style can be paired with structured garments for a balanced look.
By choosing the right style and combining it carefully, it is possible to create looks that enhance the curves with elegance and confidence. For those looking for a blazer with an impeccable fit, the design and materials make the difference: from cotton gabardine to cady, linen and leather, every detail contributes to making this garment a wardrobe must-have for every woman with curves.
Elegant formalwear blazers
For special occasions, an elegant blazer can become a sophisticated alternative to the classic dress.
For a daytime wedding, a double-breasted linen blazer goes perfectly with a light dress or a full skirt. For the evening, a cady blazer with satin details is perfect with palazzo trousers or a little black dress.
Blazers with casual outfits
The blazer is also perfect with more relaxed looks. An oversized blazer, paired with straight jeans and trainers, creates a balance between elegance and comfort.
For those craving a touch of originality, a satin-blend style with a belt adds character to the outfit, without being over the top.
Blazers for an office look
In the professional world, the blazer is synonymous with authority and elegance. A cotton-canvas blazer, worn with tailored trousers and a silk shirt, is the ideal choice for a formal, but never stuffy look.
The details make the difference: jewel buttons, prominent lapels or light structure on the shoulders give character to the ensemble without weighing it down.
Blazer and jeans: a timeless combination
One of the most popular pairings is the blazer with denim. For a casual-chic effect, the ideal to aim for is a leather blazer worn with cropped jeans and Texan ankle boots.
A sophisticated alternative is to pair a black blazer with flared jeans and a silk blouse.

Choosing the right item to wear under your blazer is essential to defining the entire outfit.

A lace top or a snug bodysuit is perfect for the evening.

Those who prefer a casual approach can opt for a graphic T-shirt or a fine turtleneck, ideal for the winter season.
A black blazer, in particular, pairs perfectly with garments with essential designs, while a colourful blazer can be enhanced by neutral tones and minimal details.
