The Classy Jacket Style Fashion People in Paris, New York and London Are Wearing Before Committing to Coats
By Harriet Davey,

For quite some time, relaxed could-be-borrowed-from-your-grandpa style blazers have dominated the world of fashion. Just look at The Frankie Shop and Arket's most popular styles. But for autumn 2024, before the fashion set commit to coats and puffers, we're seeing a shift in the humble blazer's silhouette and fitted styles are taking over from their baggier counterparts as the layer of choice. The Classy Jacket Style Fashion People in Paris, New York and London Are Wearing Before Committing to CoatsAnd you know what? I'm not mad about it.
I once thought of fitted styles as the stuffy office uniform type, but now, thanks to Hermès, Max Mara and MSGM putting more tailored versions (in a fresh way) on the autumn/winter 2024 runways––I'm converted. Often, the blazers that are fitted at the waist, or all over, look best done up. What does this mean? Well, this means the blazer becomes the outfit, so often you don't even need to consider what you style them with underneath––this should shave a few minuted off you morning routine going forward.
Not sure how to style fitted blazers? Here's some inspiration from fashion insiders, along with 24 styles (that suit all budgets) that are all worth adding to your new season wardrobes.
How to Style a Fitted Blazer:
Ticking off multiple trends in one, Marilyn has nailed autumn with this heritage check fitted blazer. Extra appreciation goes to styling the new season staple with leather Bermuda shorts and pointed flats.
A blazer so fitted, it can be tucked into suit trousers––now this is a chic way to try out the look for new season.
Even though Renia's blazer has volume at the shoulders and waist, it's all about creating that fitted silhouette by belting at the waist. A top styling tip for this year.
