Claire Oversized Blazer

A black Oversized Blazer for women, cut roomy through the shoulders and body for a relaxed drape rather than a tailored line. The viscose-blend fabric gives it a soft fall, and the single-button front, classic lapels and front pockets keep the shape clean.

If you want one layer that carries a plain tee and jeans as easily as it does an office shirt, this is the piece that does both without fuss. The oversized cut is the point here: it sits away from the body, so you can throw it over almost anything and still look put together.

How to wear it

• Office: a shirt with smart trousers
• Smart casual: over a T-shirt with jeans
• Evening: over a dress or blouse with heels

Not for you if you prefer a sharp, fitted blazer that follows the waist. This one is deliberately loose.
