What is a blazer? You might think a blazer and a suit jacket are the same thing, but — spoiler alert — they may look similar, but they serve a completely different purpose in each wardrobe. A blazer is generally less formal and used for a diverse list of occasions. The blazer was fashioned for a rowing club in 1825. They were called the red “blazers” of the Lady Margaret Boat Club and their blazers were made of bright red material. You’ll also find that blazers are generally part of uniform attire for groups that want to look professional and cohesive, like airline employees, schools, sports clubs, and more. But that’s not the only reason to wear a blazer!
