What to Wear: Tailored Blazer for a Holiday Party
A holiday party calls for a look that's festive within reason — one statement element, not five. Here's how to make a tailored blazer work for it — plus a way to actually see it on yourself before you commit.
Getting the silhouette right
For this occasion, look for shoulders that sit at the natural shoulder line, not padded past it. A structured wool or wool-blend holds a crisp line through a long day.
- Leave the bottom button undone, always
- Sleeves should end at the wrist bone, showing a half-inch of shirt cuff
Color and finishing touches
- One neutral base color so it pairs with everything else in the closet
- A contrast lining or pocket square as the only pattern in the outfit
What the occasion actually needs
A holiday party is festive within reason — one statement element, not five.
- A coat check plan matters — wear (or bring) something you don't mind carrying all night
- Richer, deeper colors photograph better under string lights than pastels
