If there’s one piece that’s really found its own in a post-pandemic world, and making us rethink our whole wardrobes, it’s the blazer. Now with no office or desk required, the new way to wear your blazer is nowhere near the photocopier—so your blazer-based autumn outfit options are almost endless.
One style in particular has been all over Instagram lately: the Bea Oversized Blazer from The Frankie Shop. It’s long been on my wish list (as has this & Others Stories iteration) but it’s Bea’s oversized boxy shape that makes it the undisputed favourite with the style set. However, with greater proportions come new styling challenges, and to make it work for you, there are a few pointers you might want to bear in mind. Firstly, always keep your blazer unbuttoned for the most elongating and modern silhouette. If you don’t want to feel swamped by the generous fit of some of this season’s most trending styles, simply pair them with something sleek on your bottom half. Experiment with a blazer over your summer dress and enjoy the high-low ratio the combination brings. More generous cuts are ideal to layer knits under as we enter the cooler months.
There’s a reason blazers are having a moment: easy to throw on, they instantly pull a look together and are the perfect piece to see you through the transeasonal months ahead. So, shake off any notion that blazers are just for power dressing and let us walk you through nine autumn blazer outfits that work perfectly.
