If you've been on the hunt for a new-season buy that will aid your winter-to-spring transition, then look no further. In a long-sleeve, full-length cut, I've found the springtime jacket of dreams, and it has already been officially co-signed by a lot of stylish people.
Aligne's Daphne Waisted Blazer (£175) evokes a quietly optimistic feeling that complements the energy of early spring days. The round-neck jacket features a pinched-waist silhouette and a longline design, offering the coverage and warmth that a spring layer calls for, coming in a delicate banana-milk, deep navy and classic black colours.
And it's gotten the stamp of approval from some of our favourite fashion people. At Aligne's New York Fashion Week event, the navy version was a definite crowd favourite.
If you're second guessing whether to add this blazer to your wardrobe, rest assured that the fashion set are working hard to prove its versatility—whether in the classic button up, scoop neck, or checked version.
The blazer has also popped up at various times during Copenhagen Fashion Week seen styled without its corresponding trousers, instead paired with wide-leg jeans and black kitten heels.
Tia Dewitt also favours the yellow hue as she was seen paring it with deep blue jeans for a look that screams spring-time. Whilst Emma Rose Thatcher stuck to the classic styling that only a black blazer can provide.
The jacket sold out so fast last year that we can only imagine a rerun is about to air, so add it to your spring wardrobe before any FOMO kicks in.
Read on to shop the fresh jacket that fashion people are lining up for, along with our other favourite new blazers.
