Style and simplicity have long walked closely with each other in the fashion world. Because women's blazers have become an indispensable part of the basic wardrobe.
What is it?
It is still difficult to give an exact description of the word “blazer”. This English word came to the world of fashion thanks to the captain of the English cruiser Blazer. It was he who introduced a special uniform on his ship - a jacket with a vertical strip in blue and white colors.
Initially, the blazer was a kind of uniform; it was worn by members of elite golf clubs, staff of fashionable hotels and hotels, and airline employees. Now, a blazer is part of modern fashion
So, a blazer is a classic jacket with one or two sides and pockets, most often with metal buttons in one or two rows.
How is a blazer different from a jacket?
Modern fashion trends have erased the line between a blazer and a jacket. But, despite the fashion trends, there are still a number of differences.
So, a modern blazer:
- loose fit;
- has patch pockets. There may be more than two. For example, an extra small pocket on the chest;
- metal buttons arranged in two rows. Although modern designers miss such a distinguishing feature and make blazers without buttons;
- has no patches on the elbows.
