Classic blazer
A jacket has long been one of the must-have items not only for men, but also for women’s wardrobe. Most often it is used as an element of a business or evening dress.
Modern designers create many models of jackets for any occasion. They can be of different lengths, cut, made from different fabrics. Each new season, at the height of fashion, more and more new models appear, but the classic jacket is relevant regardless of fashion trends.
Models
Analogs of modern jackets appeared several centuries ago. Many years have passed since then, fashion trends have changed more than once, but the jacket finally entered the men's wardrobe only at the end of the 19th century. The women's jacket came into fashion much later - in the second half of the 20th century.
A classic jacket can be single-breasted or double-breasted. The difference lies in the number of vertical buttoned planks. Single-breasted has one plank, double-breasted - two. The single-breasted jacket is the most popular model and is perfect for everyday use.
The double-breasted blazer is considered to be an element of a more formal and austere style. It is often an obligatory part of a business trouser or skirt suit.
Jackets are made from different fabrics, most often they are suiting, tweed, wool, denim, leather, knitwear, corduroy, velvet.
The jacket can be of different lengths, but it is believed that the classic model should be mid-length or just below the thigh.
The classic model can have a loose or slightly fitted cut. A straight cut allows you to hide flaws in your figure, and a tight fit emphasizes all its advantages.
Jackets with elbow pads are not only practical, but also very stylish.Inserts, as a rule, are made of leather or other wear-resistant material and can have a similar or contrasting shade in color.
The color scheme of classic models is traditional: black, blue, gray, brown, white. However, modern trends have made it possible to significantly expand this line, adding shades of green, violet, lingonberry, sand and other colors.
As for prints, the classic patterns for jackets are always unchanged: a cage, a strip, a "goose foot".
