Work Jackets & Blazers

Women's work blazers and jackets

A blazer turns a top and a pant into an outfit, and a dress into a suit. The range covers single-breasted, double-breasted, collarless, belted, cropped and short sleeve cuts, plus bombers and longline vests, in sizes 4 to 18. Many share a fabric with a matching pant or skirt.

Choose your blazer

A single-breasted blazer like the Sutton Single Breasted Blazer is the most versatile piece in a working wardrobe: it suits a straight or wide leg pant, a pencil skirt and a fitted dress. A double-breasted cut is the most formal and sharpest with a slim or straight pant. A collarless blazer, such as the Aaria Collarless Blazer, sits cleanly over a shirt collar and is the current alternative to a traditional lapel.

Cropped jackets balance a high-waisted wide leg pant, and a short sleeve blazer is the answer for a warm office. A longline vest does similar work when a full jacket is too much.

The details that change the look

Small details change the whole character of a jacket: the shoulder, the buttons, the waist. Structured shoulders give a stronger line, while built-in belts and cinched waists define the middle. A good blazer shows in how it sits, with clean seams, flat shoulders and lapels, and fabric that holds its shape without pulling.

Fabric and fit

Most styles are cut in suiting blends with a little stretch, which is what lets a fitted jacket move with you through a working day. Sizes run 4 to 18. If you plan to layer a knit underneath, check the size guide before choosing between two sizes.

Build the suit

Shop a blazer with its matching pant or skirt in suit sets, or pair it yourself with work pants or a work skirt. Over a fitted style from work dresses it reads as a suit without the separates, and the wider workwear range fills in the pieces underneath.
