FAQs

What is the primary material of this blazer?

Refer to the size guide and consider the blazer's regular fit with a gently shaped waist. Measuring your bust, waist, and hip can help ensure the best fit. The length is approximately 79cm.

Can this blazer be worn in warmer weather?

While polyester is breathable, the double-breasted structure makes it more suitable for transitional seasons or layered looks. It's ideal for air-conditioned environments.

What makes the ruched sleeve detail unique?

The signature ruched sleeve detail adds a subtle dimension and a sophisticated, contemporary touch that sets it apart from a standard blazer.

Is this blazer suitable for professional office environments?

Yes, its tailored double-breasted front, notched lapels, and longline cut make it highly suitable for professional and office settings when styled appropriately.

What kind of occasions is this blazer best for?

It's ideal for a range of occasions, from professional settings and client meetings to evening events, sophisticated brunches, and even smart-casual outings when paired with denim.

Troubleshooting

Blazer appears creased or misshapen.

Gently steam the blazer following care instructions. Use a cool iron on the reverse side if needed. Ensure it is stored correctly on a hanger to maintain its shape.

Buttons feel loose.

If buttons feel loose, consult a tailor for secure reattachment. Avoid pulling forcefully on the buttons.
