Blazers

The Shiza Collection blazer edit gathers ten tailored pieces that sit somewhere between office dressing and evening wear. Double-breasted blazers, cropped jackets and fitted zip-up styles share the rail, with faux fur, tweed and textured fabrics giving each one a distinct finish.

The tailored end of the range includes a double-breasted blazer made for office and events, a cream textured blazer with decorative trim, and a black tweed cropped jacket with faux fur trim. Fitted zip-up jackets bring a more casual edge — faux suede with a stand collar, gingham check in a cropped cut, and a blue grey leopard print with a faux fur collar.

Two pieces are typed as jackets rather than blazers, and one short khaki trench-style piece is grouped here too. They sit on this page because they are cut and worn the same way as the blazers — structured shoulders, a fitted body and a length that works with skirts and trousers — even though their labels differ.

Details to look for: sculpted seams, flap pockets, stand collars, peplum shapes and faux fur collars and trims. The palette runs from navy, black and khaki to dusty purple, cream and a single leopard print for those who want one louder piece.

Wear them over blouses and knit tops, with the matching skirts from the dress sets or with tailored trousers. A good blazer is the fastest way to make a simple outfit look finished.
