FAQs
How long should a blazer be on a woman?
A typical blazer for women hits just above the hip bone, but blazers come in so many sizes and styles; check out our range to find the perfect one for you!
Should a women’s blazer be tight or loose?
It depends on personal preference and the occasion. For a more formal look, a blazer that is snug but not tight is ideal. For a casual look, a slightly looser blazer can be more comfortable and relaxed.
How should you sit with a blazer?
Make sure you have undone any blazer buttons before sitting. Sit back in your chair, keep your back straight, and relax your shoulders. Don't let the blazer ride up too high or bunch.
How do you know if a blazer fits right?
It should feel comfy, not too tight or loose. You should be able to move easily, and the buttons should close without pulling. The shoulders of the blazer should end at your natural shoulder and the sleeves shouldn't go beyond your wrist.
Should I get my blazers one size bigger?
Whether or not to buy your blazer one size bigger depends on your personal preference and the fit of the blazer. It's generally recommended to try on blazers in different sizes to determine which one fits you best. If the blazer feels too tight or restrictive in your usual size, or if you prefer a looser or more relaxed fit, you may want to consider sizing up.
