Black blazer cuts: single-breasted and double-breasted

This essential piece of the women’s wardrobe comes in a wide range of cuts, from the most classic to the most original. At Facettes Studio, we design perfectly timeless cuts to flatter as many body types as possible. Our cuts are neither too fitted nor too oversized, to withstand ephemeral trends. Discover the Lauren cut, a single-breasted jacket , as well as the Christy, a double-breasted version. Traditionally, women’s jackets are buttoned right to left, with buttons sewn on the left front panel. At Facettes Studio, we've chosen a masculine left-to-right buttoning, a deliberate break from outdated sartorial codes that date back to the Middle Ages.

For summer, the black jacket comes in linen, cotton, or lightweight cold wool.

For winter, the black blazer comes in thicker wool like gabardine or flannel, and for the warmest versions in cashmere and mohair. Thicker cotton velvet is perfect for the holiday season.
