Dress Up, Dress Down: A Blazer's Versatility Knows No Bounds

Once a jacket that symbolized the uniform of men at country clubs and boys on boating teams, the blazer has now evolved into a timeless and foundational wardrobe staple embraced by women. 

It's chic, it's luxe, and it's classic — and the best part is that you can style it in countless ways!

1. The Classic Layer

According to Vogue Magazine, between 2006 and 2011, wearing a blazer as a statement piece layer over a dress was a significant trend that emerged among women. This style choice allowed women to effortlessly blend femininity with a touch of tailored structure, resulting in a fashion-forward ensemble that still holds its allure today. 

Not to mention, the blazer makes the perfect layering piece for any ensemble. Whether you’re running out for errands or heading into the office, rocking a blazer as a jacket is the easiest way to add a polished finishing touch to any everyday look.

2. The Day-to-Night Blazer Dress

For those seeking to push fashion boundaries, wearing a blazer as a dress is another one of the latest renditions of the piece that presents an ideal option for an easy day-to-night look. You can tap into your bold side and allow the blazer to take center stage, letting it speak completely for itself.

3. The Versatile Third Piece

Creating separate looks with different blazers, whether with structured and luxury pieces or casual and unlined jackets, allows you to play with your wardrobe and personal style. You could go from styling a blazer with slacks for a polished and professional look to pairing it with shorts, denim, or joggers for a trendy, casual vibe. 

The blazer effortlessly transitions from work to play, which is the reason why we love it! 

The jacket that keeps giving back.

This classic piece and its legacy have been and continue to be reclaimed, reimagined, and reinvented by bold and empowered women around the world. And you can always count on these jackets being on-trend because no matter your personal style, there's always a way to embrace the blazer and make it your own in your wardrobe.
