Asymmetric Wrap Blazer with Belt

Introducing a sophisticated women's blazer pattern featuring a unique asymmetric wrap front, a tailored silhouette, and a chic integrated belt with buckle detail.

When To Wear

This versatile blazer is perfect for adding a touch of tailored elegance to various settings, making it an excellent choice for:

Business & Professional Settings: Its refined tailoring and sophisticated design are ideal for smart casual or business attire.
Elevated Daytime Events: a stylish option for luncheons, gallery openings, or chic outdoor gatherings.
Resort & Travel Wear: The elegant silhouette and optional vibrant fabric choices make it suitable for sophisticated vacation wardrobes.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: a tailored, fitted silhouette through the body, extending to a flattering hip length with an asymmetric front hem.

Neckline: a clean V-neckline formed by the graceful overlap of the wrap front, without a traditional collar or lapel.

Closure: Features an elegant asymmetric wrap front, secured by a single external button and an integrated belt with a stylish buckle, complemented by an internal button for a secure fit.

Sleeves: Classic full-length set-in sleeves, offering a polished and tailored arm line.

Back: Structured back with a center seam, princess seams extending from the shoulders to the hem, and a defined waist seam.

Hem: Distinctive asymmetric front hem, creating a contemporary and dynamic visual interest, while the back hem is straight.

Waist: Accented by an integrated waist-defining belt, which cinches the silhouette and fastens with a buckle.

Level Of Difficulty

Advanced. This pattern requires experience with tailored garment construction, including precise seam matching, lining insertion, interfacing application, and setting structured sleeves and shoulder pads.

Cutter's Must

If the patterns have a double contour, seam allowances are included. If the contour is single, seam allowances are not included. Seam allowances: all seams 1 cm. Hem allowance for the bottom of the garment and sleeve hem - 3 cm. Attention! First, print out the paper patterns and lay them out on the fabric width (fabric width can be from 90 cm to 150 cm) to determine how much material you will need (do not forget to consider paired and symmetrical pieces). When stitching pieces, pay attention to the notches - they must match!
