Tailoring used to mean rigid shoulders and razor-sharp lines. SS26 reimagines it: relaxed shoulders, softer fabrics, looser fits. The blazer no longer signals "office" — it signals "considered".
The new tailoring proportions
Look for blazers with dropped shoulders, lower lapels, and a longer line that hits at the hip. Pair them with pleated trousers in the same tonal family for a relaxed monochrome look.
How to wear tailoring without looking corporate
Soften the contrast. Skip the white shirt — try a cotton tee or a fine-knit polo underneath instead.
Mix the textures. A linen blazer over silk trousers reads more "art gallery" than "boardroom".
Wear it with sneakers. Clean white leather sneakers ground tailoring without dressing it down too much.
