• Crushed velvet fabric with a distinctive crinkled texture that catches the light with every movement
• Tie waist belt in matching fabric cinches the silhouette and can be styled loosely knotted or neatly fastened
• Deep notch lapels and a double-breasted button fastening give the jacket a sharp, structured front
• Part of a co-ord set - pairs with the matching wide-leg trousers for a complete head-to-toe look
• Tailored shoulders with a longline cut that works equally well worn open or belted

The kind of blazer that does the work without trying too hard. The crushed velvet texture brings depth and tactile interest to a silhouette that is rooted in classic tailoring - notch lapels, structured shoulders, a clean double-breasted front - while the self-tie belt keeps things relaxed rather than rigid. Worn as a co-ord with the matching wide-leg trousers, it reads as a considered, complete outfit that suits everything from an evening out with friends to a festive gathering or a birthday dinner. Break up the set and wear the blazer over a simple fitted top and straight-leg jeans for a more casual take, or layer it over a slip dress for something with a little more occasion. The model wears it with statement drop earrings - a simple way to let the texture of the fabric speak and still feel dressed up.
