Hourglass Blazer’s Are Trending in Paris and New York This Spring

Coat season is, for better or for worse (depending on how you look at it), coming to an end. During the winter months I’ll lean on a smart, wool coat to keep me looking put together, but when springtime rolls around, lighter layers are called for, and it’s time to get a little more creative.

On the lookout for a new spring jacket that will maintain the polish I’ve been working hard to cultivate, I’ve set my sights on a particular blazer to fulfil this role. This spring, I’m investing in the hourglass blazer trend.

Saturating the streets of New York and Copenhagen this fashion month, as well as on the social media feeds of French women I follow, the style set are already incorporating this fresh blazer silhouette into their spring rotation. Featuring a structured shoulder and a longline cut, this elegant jacket tapers in slightly at the waist before lightly flaring out at the hips, giving it a distinctly hourglass shape.

Whilst the jacket looks supremely chic worn with a flared trouser or wide-leg trouser, those in the know are already declaring it a firm staple, styling it with their favourite jeans on repeat.

We’ve already spotlit the fact that the peplum top trend is one to watch this season, so it’s no surprise that the hourglass blazer is on the rise, too. Read on to discover our edit of the best hourglass blazers to shop this spring.
