Day to Night Glamour: Why a Blazer is Your Versatile Wardrobe Staple
Very few pieces exude class and elegance like a meticulously tailored blazer. An indispensable staple for every wardrobe, a blazer is the ultimate sartorial chameleon, able to effortlessly transition between any season and occasion. It can take you from your 9-to-5 to an after-hours cocktail.
At NADINE MERABI, we understand the power of a perfectly crafted blazer, from the luxurious feel of the fabric to the impeccable structure that flatters every silhouette. In this guide, our style experts break down how to master day-to-night glamour in one of our tailored blazers.
How to Style a Blazer
Mastering how to style a blazer begins with understanding the silhouette. Whether you are reaching for a signature MERABI embellished piece or a structured velvet classic, the way you anchor the look defines your aesthetic and dictates the energy of your ensemble.
Choosing the Perfect Fit
The first step is to choose the type of fit – tailored or relaxed. A tailored fit is designed to nip in at the waist, creating a feminine hourglass silhouette that’s emblematic of formal events and traditional power dressing. Conversely, a loose fit offers a more contemporary edge. This relaxed shape provides a modern contrast to more fitted underpinnings and is perfect for draping over your shoulders to achieve an effortless, editorial look.
When buying a MERABI blazer, always refer to our size chart to find your ideal fit. If you’re after a loose-fitting look, we recommend going up a size or two. If you want a structured, tailored fit, choose your size according to the guide.
Daytime Styling
The secret to longevity in your wardrobe is knowing how to dress down a statement blazer. You do not have to save your intricate embellishments and 3D details for midnight. You can rock our DAVINA Black Velvet Blazer and her crystal-embellished sleeves or our RILEY Black Blazer and her 3D gold floral hardware with black trousers. The MONICA Blazer Dress is an excellent piece for day-to-night styling; it can be worn with smart flats in a work setting, then be dressed up with heels and refined accessories for after-work drinks or dinner.
Nighttime Styling
When the evening calls for drama, blazer night-out outfits should embrace glamour and opulence. Trade your daytime denim for matching co-ord trousers, like the CHARLOTTE Black Trousers, to create a commanding power suit that exudes confidence.
For a bolder approach, wear a relaxed-fit blazer like ALISSA and her three-dimensional flower embellishments with the RAYE Micro Shorts, paired with sheer tights and stilettos to elongate the leg.
Day-to-Night Styling: Outfit Ideas
Once you've chosen your dream ensemble, styling it thoughtfully will complete your vow renewal look.
For accessories, less can often be more. Delicate jewellery, such as pearl earrings or a subtle necklace, can add a touch of sparkle without overpowering your outfit.
Choose shoes that are both stylish and comfortable, especially if you anticipate standing or dancing for an extended period. Elegant heels, sophisticated flats, or even embellished sandals can all work beautifully depending on your dress and venue.
