Blazers

Discover timeless elegance with the Maison Close Blazer. The blazer has long been a wardrobe staple, symbolizing both power and sophistication. At Maison Close, we've reinvented this fashion staple for a more unique experience. Our Maison Close blazer embodies timeless elegance with a contemporary twist.

 

What are the origins of the blazer?

 The first blazers were sports jackets worn by members of rowing and cricket teams to represent their club or team. These jackets were often made in bright, distinctive colors, with insignia and badges embroidered to identify membership of a particular group. It was a way of showing your commitment to the team or the club.

 

Over time, the blazer has become a more versatile piece of clothing, moving out of the sporting arena and into everyday wear, particularly in British academic and social circles. It has become synonymous with elegance and refinement.

 

How should you wear a blazer?

 A unique garment steeped in fashion history, the blazer is a wardrobe essential.

Embellished with lace, it lends a sophisticated chic touch to your outfit, and a close-fitting cut hugs your waist, giving it an hourglass look whatever your shape.

The blazer is one of those versatile pieces that can instantly transform your outfit, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication. Whether you're on your way to a business meeting, a casual evening out with friends or a chic dinner party, here's how to wear a blazer with style and confidence.

 

Today, the blazer is an essential part of men's and women's fashion, worn in a variety of contexts, whether for formal occasions, the office or even casual events. It is appreciated for its versatility, elegant cut and rich history. Modern blazers can be found in a variety of styles, colours and fabrics, making them an essential part of the contemporary wardrobe.

 

What is Leavers lace?

 Leavers lace is much more than just a fabric. It's a real work of art and prestigious textile, synonymous with elegance, refinement and tradition. This lace technique takes its name from the town of Calais in France, where it was created in the 19th century. Leavers lace is renowned for its finesse, delicacy and exceptional quality.

 

Leavers lace is woven on special shuttle looms, which give it its incomparable quality. Each pattern is created with extreme meticulousness, resulting in intricate and detailed designs. This lace is then assembled by hand to create exceptional pieces of lingerie.

 

At Maison Close, we have a profound admiration for the craft of Leavers lace. That's why you'll find this exquisite lace in so many of our Vestiaire items. When you choose our Leavers lace products, you're choosing quality and craftsmanship.
