A long, clean line gives this Evan Picone silk blazer its poise; the irregular black-
on-cream spots supply the mischief. A single dark button draws the front together,
with a low opening, flap pockets and a hem that extends past the hips. The print
covers the jacket without disguising its shape.

Evan-Picone’s roots are in American women’s sportswear. Co-founder Charles Evans
brought menswear ideas into women’s dressing, including a front zipper on a skirt.
That practical approach to separates is useful context for this later blazer, estimated
to date to the 1990s: tailoring you can work into a wardrobe, rather than an outfit
that needs to stay together as a suit.

Here, the silk and spotted pattern bring a softer mood to the long jacket shape.
Black and cream make a surprisingly accommodating base for color. Our fitted blue
styling shows one way to do it, with an uninterrupted line underneath and the jacket
fastened at the waist.

## Make it your own

Wear it over a black camisole and ivory pleated trousers, with loafers for daytime
or a pointed heel after dark. A narrow black dress lets the longer jacket hem frame
the outfit. If you want more color, try raspberry trousers and a simple black top,
keeping the rest of the outfit free of competing small prints. A compact [bag](https://shopquirkla.com/product-category/bags/)
and a pair of earrings are enough to finish it.
