The Everyday
Blazer
This project was an individual investigation into Lifestyle apparel and design. Engineered as a reversible blazer, it is constructed from a Ponte stretch fabric with a solid black side and a color-blocked grey and chartreuse on the other side. The Ponte stretch fabric allows the blazer to retain a structured tailored look while still being extremely comfortable to wear. Both left and right cuffs have hidden functional cardholders inside and out. Due to time constraints of the investigation period, only one sample garment was made. After examination of the sample prototype, the designer would have explored other colorways for the color-blocking side.
