Blazers have been with us for centuries. Although it is omnipresent, it is still monotonous. Every year, new ways are found to modernize the blazer. While a black, straight-cut, collared blazer will always have its place in our wardrobes, spring warrants a different approach – one that reflects the season through lighter colors and fabrics as well as interesting silhouettes and cuts. That’s why we’re focusing on the spring blazer trends that are trending this season. They’ve been on the runway, as part of editors’ spring outfit rotation, and in the feeds of all our favorite fashion creators. It’s not even re-inventing the wheel. You’ll find that these little edits to classic blazers make them feel fresh again.
The blazer has earned its reputation as an instant outfit elevator. Throw one on over almost any look, and you’ll feel undeniably chic (yes, even with joggers, I promise!). This is a must-have piece in any capsule, and a wardrobe hack for those days when you can’t figure out what to wear. A blazer on top is the answer to a lot of frustrating fashion questions. Now, for spring, a handful of trends are already making themselves known. Collarless blazers and cropped blazers have appeared in a steady stream, as have belted blazers and ruching and other textured details. Color-wise, khaki has given way to black blazers as well as butter yellows and creams.
If you’re a big supporter of blazers, you’ll want to scroll through and take note of the following spring trends.
5 Spring Blazer Trends to Add to Your Wardrobe
1. Belted Blazers
Style Notes: Waisted silhouettes are still going strong, but belts are now slowly taking over from the former trend. In this combination, a The belt serves as a tool to adjust the shape and proportions of your blazer and as an accessory that gives more dimension to your look. Caroline’s butter yellow blazer and leather tie belt is such a beautiful springtime pair.

2. Collarless Blazers
Style Notes: Collared blazers have been in trend for a long time and are still a staple in our wardrobes. However, this spring, designers have taken a creative look at this feature and decided to remove the collar altogether. As Anouk’s look shows, even without this distinctive component of the blazer, the jacket can still feel infinitely polished—it just gives your outfit a different look. Pair it with a light yellow knit, and you have the definition of a stylish spring outfit.

3. Khaki and beige tones
Style Notes: Spring calls for lighter colors, and khaki and beige are two colors that are popping up everywhere. My understanding of why this is has to do with the versatility of colors. First of all, khaki and beige come in many different shades – in some light they are green, in others, they look more brown or beige. It’s the ultimate chameleon and exactly the kind of color you’d want a blazer in. Taffy paired hers with a sleek white dress, a timeless spring look.

4. Cut Cuts
Style Notes: We’re entering the season of repurposing all things once again, and I can hardly wait. In this regard, the cropped blazer is the perfect transitional piece between winter and spring, as Alexis’s outfit proves. It feels crisp and classic, but the shorter length suggests dressing for warmer days. This style of blazer is a great candidate for styling with high-waisted trousers and skirts.

5. Rough and textured
Style Notes: With simple ruching or texture, a blazer can feel completely different from its sleek counterparts. The crinkled sleeves and textured front spring on Sylvie’s blazer completely liven up the image of the blazer, giving it a little more visual interest. Buttoned up, it can serve as a top and jacket.
