As a “Tall Woman” trying to find the perfect blazer that can actually fit the length of our arms is almost impossible sometimes, but this tailored blazer by Calvin Klein was definitely made for us. The arms are around 24.5 inches long, double-breasted with gold buttons…which we all love. This particular style may be sold out, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any out there fit for us tall women. So how do you pick the perfect blazer? Good questions. Always take into consideration your shoulder to wrist length, bust size, back width and cut of the blazer. This will make choosing the perfect blazer a lot easier.
PICKING A BLAZER
Let’s first start out by saying they ARE NOT ALL created equal. From cropped to oversized the options are endless. So it would depend on your style, but I say try them all out. You never know what new style will fit your body frame.
- Cropped Blazers
- Oversized Blazers
- Business Blazer
- Casual Blazer
- Single Breast
- Double Breast
- Boyfriend Blazer
The styles are endless and I will always recommend taking a day and go shopping and find the perfect blazer. If there’s a specific brand that you love because of the quality but the fit is just a little off. Finding a tailor will be your savior and best friend. This is solely to take your basic blazer to the next level, so get one!
