Günstige Tom Tailor Blazer (2024)

FAQs

How do you get the perfect blazer? ›

It's important to focus on key areas to get a flawless fit. Here's a quick rundown of what to pay attention to: Shoulders: Make sure the seams sit comfortably on your shoulders and don't slope down. Chest/Waist: The blazer should slightly nip in at your waist and fit comfortably over your chest.

In a tailored jacket adhesives are not used, but the front parts of the garment are strengthened by using horse hair and with the use of a so-called canvas. The canvas has different thicknesses depending on how rigid the desired effect; the thicker the canvas the more rigid the effect obtained.

Blazers should fit in much the same ways as suit jackets or sports coats should. Shoulders should not over-extend by more than half an inch; they should allow a full range of arm motion. There should be enough give in the chest to allow you to button the jacket.

The sleeve should end at or just before the wrist so it's when you bend your hand up with the palm down, it lightly touches the top of your hand or stops just short of it. It blazer should end around mid to lower crotch. Mid-crotch if you're under 5ft 9 inches (1.79m), lower than that if you're taller than that.

Although sometimes hard to judge, your blazer should gently flow over your waist, with a sufficient gap to prevent a feeling of tightness but not so much space that it feels baggy and loose.

Navy is typically a failsafe option, because the colour is incredibly versatile and will complement a range of denim shades. Grey is also a great choice, thanks to the fact that there are so many different hues to choose from. If you want to go for a more classic look, tweed can also look great with denim.

You'll find grey to be the most versatile colour when choosing a blazer, as it adds a modern touch to almost every outfit. Layer over a tailored-fit shirt and alongside a smart pair of trousers for a flawless formal look.

When checking the size, place your hands by your side. You can then inspect the length of your suit jacket while paying close attention to the sleeves. The sleeves should stop right at your wrists. If they go past your wrists, meaning they cover some of your hands, your suit jacket is too big.

Where should sleeves end on a blazer? ›

The jacket sleeve should end just above the large bone on the wrist. The sleeve length can be changed by a tailor. Bare in mind that if the suit has working buttonholes the length will need adjustment from the shoulder, rather than from the bottom of the sleeve, which is more expensive.

A well-fitted blazer is essential to achieve a polished look. It should be tailored to your body, ensuring that it follows your natural lines without being too tight or too loose. The shoulders should sit comfortably on the shoulder point and the sleeves should be just long enough to show a bit of your shirt cuff.

A blazer with the right girth will probably just feel right—not too loose, not too tight. As a visual check, button the blazer up completely and observe the fabric surrounding the buttons. If you notice folds naturally occurring in the fabric (usually in the shape of an "X"), the blazer is too tight.
