Day-To-Night Dressing with Sapna Rao
Forget everything you thought you knew about blazers. That stuffy office staple has evolved into something far more interesting – the secret weapon in your wardrobe that works around the clock.
The Power Proportion
The key to the modern blazer isn't just in the fabric but the fit. Take a cue from Sapna and create deliberate contrast between structure and flow. Think an oversized shoulder with wide-leg trousers, creating that coveted silhouette that looks effortless yet intentional.
What makes today's blazer truly different is how it breaks old rules. The perfect fit? Actually slightly imperfect. Too neat looks dated – a touch too big looks current. Think of it as borrowed, not bought. The sleeves should fall just past your wrists, creating that subtle nonchalance that defines the blazer's latest new look.
The Unexpected Pairing
The real style secret lies in contrasts. Black with light blue creates visual interest that a matching set never will. This high-low mixing – formal blazer with casual striped trousers – speaks volumes about understanding true style rather than following trends.
A completely monochrome look also offers another lesson in modern dressing: when going all one colour, make sure to vary the textures to create interest. Pair your matte tailoring with trousers that have a slight sheen or shirting that has ruffled texture details. These extra points of difference add dimension that flat colour-matching misses entirely.
Beyond the Classic Suit
The difference between looking put-together and truly stylish often comes down to how you wear it, not just what you wear. Leave the blazer unbuttoned for movement and a 'just threw this together' vibe. Push up the sleeves slightly and let your shirt peek out underneath. Don't fuss with it once it's on – confidence comes from forgetting about your clothes once you're dressed.
Morning meetings to evening drinks, weekend brunches to summer parties – this approach to blazer styling transcends settings and seasons. It's exactly the kind of versatile, confident dressing that defines The Season–Fenwick's take on summer style that works far beyond traditional occasions.
This isn't just about looking good. It's about the quiet confidence that comes from knowing you've mastered styling your wardrobe essentials–just like Sapna.
