Statement Blazers for Weddings, Prom and Holiday Parties: Manzini Guide

A Manzini designer blazer is the fastest way to own the room at a wedding, prom, gala or holiday party. Bold patterns, satin lapels and rich colors do the talking, so the rest of the outfit can stay simple. Here is how to choose the right one, from our Baltimore store's Manzini wall.

Quick answer: our favorite Manzini blazers right now

Most Manzini blazers are about $147 to $230, often marked down from $299 to $399.

How to choose by occasion

  • Weddings: ivory, cream and champagne jacquards look elegant without upstaging the couple. Grooms often choose ivory with a black or champagne lapel.
  • Prom: go bold. Burgundy paisley, rose gold, eggplant and metallics photograph beautifully. Match one color to your date's outfit.
  • Holiday parties and New Year's Eve: red, gold and black baroque or paisley patterns feel festive and luxurious.
  • Galas and cruise formal nights: black and gold or midnight and gold blazers with a satin lapel read as black tie.

How to style a statement blazer

  • Keep the trousers plain: black works with almost every Manzini blazer; ivory or white for light jackets.
  • Choose a white or black dress shirt and a bow tie that matches the lapel color.
  • Finish with polished shoes; patent leather adds shine for evening events. See our Patent Leather Shoes.

Fit and alterations

Manzini blazers come in jacket sizes from XS (36) up to 5XL (52), depending on the style. Most are single-breasted, one-button dinner jackets. Alterations are available at our Baltimore store for a fee, so sleeves and waist can be tailored before your event. Most are dry clean only.
