How to make a shirt, a blazer model - It’s a controversial outfit in the fashion world, but whether you love it or hate it, we’re here to show you how to pull off the blazer with t-shirt look.
Whether a blazer with a T-shirt look is acceptable or not is a regularly debated issue, and one that’s rarely concluded. However, we believe if it’s pulled off correctly it can look both classic and effortlessly stylish. But, and that’s a big but, if you plan to pull it off successfully there are a few key things to bear in mind to avoid looking like Roy from The IT Crowd.
T-shirt
Pattern
To get this look right there are few things you need to make sure you’re doing right. To start off make sure both your blazer and T-shirt are slim fitting and you stick to a simple crew T-shirt with minimal to no branding. Anything that’s too loud is going to take away from the formal look and make it seem like you’ve just thrown a blazer over your casual wear. If you absolutely have to go for some detail keep it small with either a subtly texturised material or with a minimal logo in the corner of the T-shirt.
Colour
If you’re going for colours make sure either you’ve either got it on your t-shirt or your blazer, not both. Combining two sets of colours is going to look confusing and clash awkwardly, and also take away the clean, smart look. Keep it simple, and if you want to go for a bright blazer make sure your T-shirt is in a neutral black or white.
Shape
For the shape choose something that fits close to the body. We’re not talking skin tight, but anything too baggy won’t work with the slim fit design of the blazer and will make the outfit look bulky. Keep your T-shirt long enough that you can tuck it into your trousers, or short enough that it just goes over the top of your trouser line.

Blazer
Now everyone comes in different shapes and sizes, so there’s different rules on what kind of blazer to wear depending on how you carry your weight. For a more in-depth read on how to wear a blazer to fit any shape read our article here. There are still a few universal rules on wearing a blazer that apply to everyone however, regardless of size. Now there’s a small difference between a blazer and what people call a suit jacket. So, what is a blazer? Well in short it’s a jacket that isn’t paired with matching trousers, giving it a more casual look. A suit jacket is always paired with trousers that are matching in colour and material, giving it a more formal look. Because of this there’s a range of blazer outfits you can create, and as long as you get the fit and colours right, you can experiment at will.
Length
If you’re wearing a blazer keep the length of it in mind. Anything too long is going to look like you’re a kid wearing your dad’s jacket. Anything too short and it’ll look like you’ve had an impromptu growth spurt. As a general rule your blazer shouldn’t end past your hand or above your waist line, and depending on your body shape can fall somewhere between the two. Sleeve lengths are much less up for debate however. As with all jackets your sleeves should never drown your hands or bare your wrists, and should fall somewhere in the middle of the wrist.

Fit
The rule on fit for blazers is more or less the same as with a suit jacket. A blazer is supposed to be more slim fitting, but if it’s too tight and there are creases around the buttons where the material is straining, then you need to bite the bullet and go for a size up. Likewise if your blazer isn’t following the shape of your body or pinching in a little at the waist then it’s not fitted enough, and you won’t get the sharp look you’re going for.

Leg wear
Obviously in order to be able to go outside and talk to people, you’ll need to wear some kind of trousers, and the good thing about pairing a T-shirt with a blazer is that the look is automatically more casual, so you have more options with your choice of leg wear.
Smart Trousers
For the classic look for a pair of smart trousers will do the job, just make sure that they’re well fitted and break just above the top of your shoes. Try ones that are a little tapered as they’ll avoid falling too loosely over your shoes and will help elongate your body, as well as fit neatly with the slim look of the outfit.
Make sure the waist line fits high enough up your body that you can tuck your t-shirt in if need be, and that it fits around your waist without the need of a belt to hold it up. An easy rule to remember is that you should be able to fit two fingers easily between your stomach and your waist line, so that it’s loose enough for you to move around in, but fitted enough to stay streamlined.

Jeans
If you’re going for a more casual look with a pair of jeans the same rules apply. Keep them slim and tapered, and for an added bit of interest try turning them up. There are various ways to do it, so experiment, or read it the different ways in our denim guide, to see what looks you can achieve. Wearing jeans automatically makes the outfit more casual, so make sure that your jeans are perfectly clean and fitted to avoid looking shabby. Avoid anything too textured or stone washed, and go instead for a neutral, deep colour that will work with the smart look of the blazer.
If you’re a skinny jeans kind of guy then yes, they can be worn with blazers, but make sure that the blazer is well fitted around the waist and arms, otherwise you can end up looking out of proportion and the overall look won’t be streamlined.

Footwear
You can get your outfit bang on – have the right fitting blazer, the perfect colour arrangement and leg wear that matches perfectly – but if the shoes aren’t right then the whole look will fall apart. Shoes need to be kept simple and slim when paired with a blazer. Anything that’s too chunky will disrupt the narrow look of the outfit and give the impression that your wearing shoes that are far too big for you. Keep them well fitted, but experiment with styles.
Casual
If your outfit is feeling a little too formal just change up your footwear and try out a pair of simple canvas plimsolls. Not only will they be comfortable but they’ll tone down the outfit in a stylish and subtle way. Avoid patterns and go for a mono-coloured look with, for example, a pair of white lace up trainers. Anything too busy will detract from the blazer and look out of place.

Formal
For footwear that stays on the smart scale try out clean designs like derbies, monk straps or loafers. They’ll match effortlessly with the rest of the outfit and will smarten up your outfit if you went for more casual leg wear, like jeans.
If you’re wearing loafers you can try different looks, like penny or tassel styles, that will add some interest if you went for a plain blazer. Different textures can also change up the look, and you can go for a sleek leather pair to compliment a sophisticated style, or try a more relaxed suede look. You can pair loafers with pretty much any trousers you want, from chinos to jeans, and can transform a look by giving it a boost of sophistication.

For a super formal look try a pair of high shine patent leather shoes. They will instantly add a boost of formality to your outfits, so avoid wearing them with jeans as the contrast will be too high. Pair them instead with some slim fit, well ironed and plain coloured trousers that will compliment the eye-catching shine of these shoes.
