5 Ways To Wear This Season’s Cropped Blazer Trend
A blazer is the wardrobe hero that adds instant polish and this season, it gets a snappy makeover with boxier shapes and cropped lengths. The look has been spotted on countless celebs, from Hailey Bieber to Cara Delevingne, as well as in the collections of Saint Laurent, Gucci and Bouguessa and it’s the perfect transitional layer to take you into spring.
Here’s how to work the cropped blazer look five ways, from smart workwear to cute date night
LOOK 1: For the office
The three-piece suit is everywhere this season and it will add some drama to your office looks whilst still being appropriate. & Other Stories’ directional option is giving ‘90s supermodel vibes with the longer-line waistcoat, asymmetrical cropped jacket and boardroom grey hue. Pair with off-white accessories and chunky jewels for a contemporary finish.

LOOK 2: With a satin slip skirt
Ease a trusted satin slip skirt into the warmer months my pairing with a cropped boxy jacket. Ribbed ankle socks and chunky loafers ensure the look doesn’t feel too prim.

LOOK 3: With baggy ‘90s denim
A cropped boxy jacket can feel a little dated, so give it a high/low feel with this season’s baggy ‘90s denim. Zara’s 1975 mid-rise pair come in this perfect light wash which feels very nostalgic, and the wide-leg, slightly flared cut is super flattering with a pair of barely-there heels.

LOOK 4: With added layers for a grown-up boho vibe
Add a modern feel to that grown-up Isabel Marant-esque look by layering a cropped blazer over a frilly white blouse and boho accessories.

LOOK 5: With this season’s mini kilt
Leaning into the ‘90s again, the mini kilt is back. Avoid it looking too Cher Horowitz by going for a paired back shade – we love the business feel of Charles Jeffrey Loverboy’s pinstripe number – which comes with a matching cropped jacket. Add chunky soled boots for a grungier feel and a pop of colour with your accessories.
