Putting it together:
- Start with a jacket that reaches about fingertip length and has a slightly drapey cut (anything too stiff can feel a bit '80s).
- To balance the length of the blazer and offset its menswearish vibe, go for a dress that hits mid-thigh and has a little lightness and movement. A trapeze or tunic shape works best.
- For the most sophisticated combination, limit your palette to whites and neutrals for the dress, and shades of gray and black for the jacket.
