Blazers: A Trend That Will Never Be Out Of Style

Are you also the one who wants to be trendy yet formal? Then, Blazers are your answers! So, here are a few things you should know before buying any blazer.

 You all must be familiar this basic things when buying- sleeves, sizes and body.

Focusing on the sleeve’s length. They should end about a half-inch above your hand, allowing room for your shirt cuff to show. If you are 5’7”, try a short jacket length. If you’re 5’8” to 6’, try a regular jacket first. If you are 6’ or taller, you’ll probably need a long. Tip: Wear a long sleeved dress shirt when you get fitted in your blazer. This helps the tailor know how to adjust the sleeves. 

Not to state the obvious, but first figure out your size. Most critical is the fit of the shoulder. The seam on the jacket should sit directly above the edge of your shoulder. Most guys buy jackets that are too big. Even the best tailor can’t fix an ill-fitting shoulder, so get this detail correct and you’re off to a good start. 

While we’re on the subject, have you seen men trying on suits waving their arms around like fools, complaining the jacket is too tight? This garment is intended to provide structure, and therefore it should not fit like a Snuggie, although off the rack, the body of the jacket might be a little boxy. If that’s the case, ask your tailor to have it taken in so it skims your torso. Traditional fits are typically longer in the body, while modern fits are cut shorter. Either way, if the bottom of the jacket falls below your butt, it’s too long. Ideally, the end of your sleeve and the bottom of the jacket should more or less line up. 

Now let’s have some detailed understanding:

When buying the first blazer always doubts arise about trim, details, colours and fabrics, the 10 tips below hopefully leave our most readers will on this occasion. The most important thing is that for your first purchase a discreet and versatile piece will break your stick, then with more options in your closet, you can afford to buy more striking and stylish pieces.

Combinations – Vary the parts that come with the blazer can give a totally different air to it. Plain shirt and tie fall more formal, as knitwear, shirts and even hoodies are ideal for relaxed situations.

 Sleeves – The sleeve length is the same suit jacket, she must finish in the wrist stone fruit, leaving a little of the shirt cuff showing

Details – Stripes, military insignia, martingales, elbow and metal buttons call much attention and leave the marked piece, which is not advisable if you have to use it twice in a row

 Fabric –The cold wool blazer seems a more appropriate choice, the fabric is cool in summer and warm in winter, i.e. can be used in any weather conditions

Buttons –As I have said on other occasions, three buttons draw attention to the face and are most suitable for the chubby, 2 buttons or even one button form a straight arrow to his stomach, so it’s good that there is not much volume there

 Colours –Versatile as black, dark grey and navy blue go well with almost everything and are suitable for all occasions

 Lapels – Thin are more detached and are best if you want to use it also in an informal occasion, as the ballad has rounded face therefore less desirable

 Trim – Modelling leaves you slim, but if the extra pounds are left opt ​​for a model with straight cut

Patterns and prints – Fabrics without patterns or prints are more discreet and easy to match
