The Ultimate Guide to Smart‑Casual Blazers for Women’s Body Types
Author: Stylist at TellarDate: 2025
S mart‑casual blazers are a cornerstone of versatile wardrobes—add polish to denim, sophistication to trousers, or structure to dresses. This guide breaks down the best styles by body type, highlights high‑street, designer, and independent boutique picks, and explains how Tellar.co.uk ensures perfect sizing every time—no guessing, no returns.
Why Blazer Fit Really Matters
A well‑fitted blazer boosts confidence and elevates outfits. But poor fit—tight shoulders, gaping front, or excess length—can ruin the look. That’s why precise sizing via Tellar is essential.
Body Type Meets Blazer Style
Body Shape | Ideal Blazer Style | Notes |
---|---|---|
Hourglass | Fitted, single‑breasted, nipped waist | Enhances natural curves |
Rectangle | Peplum, belted or draped lapels | Adds waist definition |
Apple | Longline, open jacket | Elongates torso, avoids midsection pinch |
Pear | Cropped with structured shoulders | Balances proportions |
