No garment is more elegant or flattering than a well-cut blazer. It’s what every professional lady needs and what every fashionista should don and alter according to her outfit. At some point in your life, you’ve surely had the fortune of having to wear one and odds are the cut wasn’t necessarily the right one for you.

A nice blazer makes everything look savvier; a dress prettier, and shorts classier. A bestowal of sheer elegance you might say! If you are a good observer of fashion, then you’ve surely noticed the buzz created around having the perfect blazer fit. But you needn’t worry, we’re here to assist you in this quintessential task.

First thing’s first, the shoulders; one way to make sure that it is not too tight or not too large is to perfectly examine the shoulder seam. In other words, the latter shouldn’t be too close to your neck or too trailing downwards.

The second step is to make sure your sleeves are hitting the top of your wrist bone. If your wrists are not covered, the blazer is definitely not for you!

Next comes the bust, where measurement is quite simple to cover. If you witness any wrinkles, then the bust is too tight. If the material is excessively overlapping, then the blazer is too large. It should properly fit you whether it is buttoned or unbuttoned.

Now that you have these guidelines, what are you still waiting for to stock your wardrobe with this magical garment?
