Blazer

Oversized blazers are no longer just office basics, but a real must-have in every wardrobe. Their loose fit makes them look relaxed and chic at the same time. Whether worn casually with jeans and sneakers, elegantly over a dress, or in a cool layered look with a hoodie, they adapt to any style.

With your own choice of fabric, you can make your blazer your very special favorite piece. In the top fall 2025 trend colors – such as Electric Purple for a bold statement or Mocha Mousse for a warm, elegant look – it is guaranteed to be a winner. If you like a classic look, go for gray, black, or dark blue. Patterns such as checks or pinstripes add exciting accents, while corduroy will give your blazer a particularly autumnal touch.

Chiara from @by.kicki opted for a dark beige [Stoff] fabric, creating the perfect oversized blazer for every occasion.

Please note:

When printing the pattern, select setting "Actual size" or "100 %" to avoid measurement deviations. We recommend printing the test square (10 × 10 cm) first and checking the measurements. If the square has the correct dimensions, the entire pattern can be printed.

What size fits me?

Important: Our sizes cannot be compared with ready-to-wear sizes. It is very important that you take your measurements before you start.

Tie a tight thread around your waist and pin the ends together.
Take notes of your body measurements and use the measurement table to determine your sewing pattern size.
Compare your body measurements with the table measurements. Your measurements may vary between different sizes. Choose the size closest to your measurements.
Choose tops (for example dress, blouse, or jacket) according to the size of your bust; pants and skirts according to the size of your hips/waist.
Always compare the body measurements with the table measurements, never with the paper pattern pieces. All pattern pieces already include a comfortable allowance.

How to take measurements:

Full body length: From head to toe.
Bust: Over the fullest part of the chest. The measuring tape should be placed horizontally around the body.
Waist: Measure at the waist. The tape should be at the level of your navel. Add 2 cm if you prefer a looser fit.
Hips: Place the measuring tape around the widest part of your buttocks. The measuring tape should be placed horizontally around the body.
Back length: Measure from the bottom of the neck (protrudes slightly) to your waist.
Upper arm circumference: Place the measuring tape around the widest part of the upper arm.
