Description

Experience the joy of a classic lined blazer that actually fits and flatters your curves with the Auburn Blazer. No more blazers that don't button up or are too large at the shoulders. Sleek princess seams, a sophisticated notched collar, and a single button closure make this blazer a stylish choice. Angled welt pockets and two-piece vented sleeves complete the look, or opt for a cropped length and clean sleeve finish.

Fabric Suggestions

Woven blazer: Mid to heavyweight wovens, such as suiting or tweed made from wool, linen, or wool blends. Lightweight coating is also suitable. Avoid fabrics with a very smooth surface like gabardine, as they will likely shine when pressed.

Stretch blazer: Mid to heavyweight knit fabric, such as stable ponte, or mid-weight stretch wovens such as stretch suiting

Body lining: If using a non-stretch woven, use a lightweight woven lining such as viscose bemberg or crepe de chine. If using a stretch woven or ponte, use a knit lining for the body, such as ITY or other slick jersey.  

Sleeve lining: Light-weight woven lining such as viscose bemberg or or crepe de chine, for both stretch & non-stretch blazers.

Pocket lining: Stable woven such as quilting cotton or shirting. 

Interfacing: Mid-weight weft fusible interfacing and mid-weight knit fusible interfacing. Optional: use heavier weight interfacing for pocket welt; fusible horsehair canvas can be used for chest shield interfacing.

Notions

  • Universal (for non-stretch) or stretch needle, hand sewing needle, thread
  • View A: 2 ⅜ yd (2.2 m) of 1 – 1 ½” (2.5 – 3.8 cm) wide bias tape (homemade) or ⅝” – ¾” (1.5 – 1.9 cm) wide single fold bias tape (store bought)
  • View B: ½ yd (0.5 m) of 1 – 1 ½” (2.5 – 3.8 cm) wide bias tape (homemade) or ⅝” – ¾” (1.5 – 1.9 cm) wide single fold bias tape (store bought)
  • One 1 – 1 1⁄4” button (center front), six ½” – ⅝” buttons (sleeve vents) for View A only.
  • Shoulder pads (⅜”/1 cm – ½”/12 mm thick). Rounded jacket/blazer shoulder pads are best and are typically around 6.5” (16.5 cm) by 4” (10.2 cm).
  • Straight grain fusible stabilizing tape (Alternatively, if your interfacing has a direction with NO stretch, even mechanical, you can cut a ½” strip along the direction with no stretch.)
