Shawl Collar Long Sleeve Blazer — Fit, Fabric & Care

How we measure this blazer (garment measured laid flat)

Chest (pit-to-pit)

Lay the blazer flat and fasten the front. Measure straight across from one underarm seam to the other. Multiply by 2 to get full chest circumference.

Waist

Measure across the narrowest part of the jacket body and multiply by 2 for circumference.

Hem

Measure across the bottom edge of the blazer and multiply by 2 for full hem circumference.

Shoulder width

Measure straight across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.

Sleeve length

Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff along the outside sleeve seam. (Alternatively, for overall sleeve measurement, measure from center back at the base of the collar to the cuff.)

Center back length

Measure from the base of the collar (nape) straight down to the hem.

Armhole / sleeve opening

Measure around the inside edge of the armhole, or measure across the opening and multiply by 2 for circumference.

All garment measurements are taken with the blazer lying flat and may vary ±1–2 cm. To choose a size, compare your body measurements to the garment measurements and add desired ease: fitted +2–4 cm, classic +6–8 cm, oversized +10 cm+.

How to measure your body

1. Chest: Wrap a soft tape measure around the fullest part of your chest, under the arms and across the shoulder blades. Keep tape parallel to the floor.
2. Waist: Measure around your natural waist (narrowest point).
3. Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips while standing with feet together.
4. Shoulder width: Measure across the back from shoulder bone to shoulder bone.
5. Sleeve length: From shoulder bone (where a shoulder seam would sit) down to the wrist with a slightly bent elbow.
6. Center back length: From the base of the neck (nape) straight down to the hemline.

Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm.

Materials & construction

Shawl-collar blazers are made from a variety of fabrics and constructions. Common examples include:

• Polyester/viscose/elastane blends (e.g., 65% polyester / 32% viscose / 3% elastane) — smooth drape, light stretch, wrinkle-resistant and easy-care.
• Wool or wool blends (e.g., 70% wool / 30% polyester) — structured, warm, usually dry-clean only for best results.
• Linen or linen blends — breathable and textured, ideal for warm-weather blazers; natural creasing is normal.
• Cotton or cotton blends — casual appearance, comfortable and breathable; care depends on lining and construction.
• Lining — commonly 100% polyester or acetate to aid movement and preserve shape; interfacing and shoulder pads are typically non-woven or foam.

Buttons and trims vary by style (resin, metal, etc.). Exact fiber content and trims differ by SKU—always check the product label for precise information.

Care guide — to keep it lovely longer

• Follow the care label first. The label reflects the exact fabric and structure of the blazer.
• Dry clean: Recommended for structured, wool or fully lined blazers to maintain shape and finish.
• Machine-washable blends: Close buttons, turn garment inside out, use a garment bag and wash on a gentle cold cycle with mild detergent. Remove promptly and hang on a broad-shoulder hanger to dry. Do not tumble dry unless label allows.
• Hand-wash: Use cool water and mild detergent, do not wring, gently squeeze out excess water and reshape while damp.
• Ironing & steaming: Prefer steaming to remove wrinkles. If ironing, use a low-heat setting and a pressing cloth to protect fabric and lining.
• Spot cleaning: Blot stains gently with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid vigorous rubbing. For oil or difficult stains, consult a professional cleaner.
• Storage: Hang on a wide, shaped hanger to preserve shoulder lines. Use breathable garment bags for long-term storage; avoid plastic covers that trap moisture. For wool, use cedar or other moth prevention.
• Avoid: bleach, high heat, and prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fiber damage and fading.
• Travel tips: Use a garment bag when possible; if you must fold, fold along natural seams and unpack/steam promptly on arrival.

Style tips

• Work ready: Pair with matching trousers or a pencil skirt and a crisp shirt for a polished office look.
• Smart casual: Wear open over a white tee or lightweight knit with slim jeans and loafers or sneakers.
• Belted: Add a narrow belt to cinch the waist and create an hourglass silhouette—great over dresses or high-waisted trousers.
• Evening: Layer over a slip dress with heels and statement jewelry for a modern evening outfit.
• Layering: A thin turtleneck or fine-gauge knit works well under the blazer in cooler months; choose an unlined or linen-blend version for warmer weather.
• Accessories: Pocket squares, brooches, or a bold necklace elevate a simple blazer; choose shoes and bag to match the formality of the look.
• Outfit formulas: Blazer + white shirt + dark jeans + ankle boots = elevated casual. Blazer + matching trousers + pumps = classic formal.
