ABOUT
The Jasika Blazer is a classic tailored jacket with a semi-fitted shape that will never go out of style.

Fabric suggestions:
- For the jacket body: medium to heavyweight suitings or lightweight coatings with surface texture such as wool melton, wool flannel, crepe and tweed. Velvet, medium-heavy weight cotton, seersucker and linen may also be used. Please note: tightly woven, smooth surfaced suitings like wool gabardine are not recommended since they can be difficult to fuse using an iron.
- For the lining: rayon bemberg, charmeuse, crepe de chine, silky cottons like voile
- For the pockets: sturdy cotton like shirting, quilting cotton or muslin (1/4 yd / .25m)
