A well-cut blazer lifts almost any outfit, from a plain t-shirt and jeans to a crisp shirt and formal trousers. The Rare Rabbit blazer collection brings together blazers for men in linen blends, velvet, cotton and polyester, with styles for casual weekends, office days, parties and formal events. You will find classic neutrals such as black, navy and grey alongside bolder shades such as purple, teal, mustard and peach. Most pieces come with a lapel neck, full sleeves and a button closure, and they pair as easily with formal trousers as with jeans.
This collection leans toward casual and smart-casual dressing. Casual blazers make up the largest share, followed by party, business and formal styles. Linen blend is the most common fabric, which makes the range a strong choice for warm weather, while velvet styles cover evening and festive occasions.
Most blazers here are plain, solid-colour designs, so they mix easily with the rest of your wardrobe. A smaller edit of checked, jacquard and striped blazers adds pattern and texture for those who want more character in a look.
To narrow the range, use the filters at the top of the page. You can sort blazers by size, colour, price, occasion, discount, sleeve, pattern, collar, fabric, fit and closure. For example, select "linen blend" and "casual" to see summer-ready blazers, or "velvet" and "party" to see evening styles.
The fabric of a blazer decides how it looks, how it feels and where you can wear it. Here is how each fabric in this collection works.
Linen blend blazers form the largest part of the collection. Linen feels light and breathable, so a linen blend blazer suits warm days, daytime events and Indian summers better than heavier fabrics. The blend gives the blazer a relaxed, slightly textured surface and an easy drape.
Linen naturally shows soft creases with wear, and that relaxed character is part of its appeal. Wear a linen blend blazer open over a linen shirt or a plain t-shirt, with light trousers or chinos and loafers. It works well for brunches, holidays, daytime parties and smart office days. For more warm-weather pieces, explore the summer essentials edit.
Polyester and polyester blend blazers hold a clean, structured shape and suit regular wear. Many of these styles come in solid colours such as black, navy, grey, olive and brown, which makes them reliable picks for work, meetings and evening plans.
Some polyester blazers in this collection blend polyester with viscose, which gives the fabric a smoother hand feel. Choose a polyester blazer when you want one dependable piece that moves from the office to dinner with a simple change of shirt or shoes.
Velvet blazers bring depth and richness to party and festive outfits. The soft pile catches light and makes colours such as dark blue, teal and purple look deeper and more luxurious.
A velvet blazer works best for evening events: wedding receptions, cocktail parties, festive dinners and celebrations. Keep the rest of the outfit simple so the blazer stands out. A black shirt or fine knit, dark trousers and polished shoes create a balanced look. Velvet also suits cooler months, which makes it a good addition to a winter wardrobe.
Cotton blazers offer a natural, comfortable feel and a smart-casual finish. In this collection, cotton styles include checked designs that suit daytime events, travel and office days with a relaxed dress code. Pair a cotton blazer with a shirt or polo, trousers or dark jeans, and loafers or clean sneakers.
Rayon and viscose blazers have a smooth surface and a softer drape than more structured fabrics. They feel light on the body and give a fluid, relaxed silhouette. These styles suit casual evenings, dinners and occasions where you want a blazer that looks polished without a stiff structure.
Use the occasion filter to match a blazer to your plans. Here is what each occasion offers and how to style it.
Casual blazers make up the biggest part of this collection. Most come in linen blends and plain colours, which keeps them light, easy and versatile. They suit weekend outings, brunches, dates, travel, college events and creative workplaces.
Style a casual blazer over a t-shirt or polo and pair it with jeans, chinos or relaxed trousers. Roll the sleeves slightly or wear the blazer open for an easier feel. Finish with loafers or clean sneakers. Light shades such as beige, off white, peach and aqua suit daytime, while olive, khaki and navy work from day to evening.
Party blazers bring colour, texture and shine. This edit includes velvet blazers and bolder colours such as purple, maroon and teal. Choose one when you want the blazer to lead the outfit.
For a cocktail party or reception, pair a velvet or jacquard blazer with a black shirt, dark trousers and formal shoes. For a house party or club night, wear a coloured blazer over a plain black t-shirt with dark jeans. Add a pocket square for a finished look.
Business blazers focus on clean lines and dependable colours such as black, navy, grey and brown. They suit office days, client meetings, presentations and work travel.
Pair a business blazer with formal shirts in white, light blue or pale pink, tailored trousers, a leather belt and formal shoes. On relaxed workdays, swap the formal shirt for a polo or fine knit. For a full workwear edit, browse the work and business collection.
Formal blazers suit events that call for a sharper, more traditional look, such as weddings, award nights, formal dinners and ceremonies. Dark shades and structured fabrics work best here.
Wear a formal blazer with a crisp shirt, matching or coordinated trousers and polished shoes. A peak lapel or a textured fabric adds a subtle sense of occasion. If the event calls for a fully matched outfit, consider a suit instead.
Colour shapes the mood of a blazer more than any other detail. The collection spans 20 colours, from essential neutrals to statement shades.
Black is the largest colour group in the collection and the easiest to style. A black blazer works for business meetings, evening parties and formal events. Pair it with a white shirt for a sharp contrast, a black shirt for a sleek monochrome look, or a grey t-shirt for a relaxed evening outfit.
Navy is one of the most versatile blazer colours. It pairs with grey, beige and white trousers, as well as blue and black jeans. A navy blazer suits office days, dinners and smart-casual weekends. Blue blazers offer a brighter alternative and work well with white shirts, grey trousers and brown shoes.
A grey blazer gives a calm, polished look that suits work and evenings. It pairs well with navy or black trousers, white or light blue shirts and black or brown shoes. Grey also makes a strong base for a coordinated blazer set with darker trousers.
Earthy tones feel warm and relaxed. A brown blazer pairs well with cream, beige and blue. Olive works with white, black and denim, and suits both daytime and evening plans. A khaki blazer brings a light, outdoor feel and pairs well with white shirts, navy trousers and brown loafers.
Beige and off white blazers suit summer days, daytime functions and holidays. Pair them with white or pastel shirts, light trousers or blue jeans, and tan or white shoes. In a linen blend, these shades create an easy, breezy warm-weather look.
Cool shades add colour without feeling loud. Green and teal blazers work for parties and evening events, especially in velvet. Petrol, a deep blue-green, pairs well with black, grey and white. Aqua brings a light, fresh tone for daytime and summer outfits, and pairs best with white and beige.
Purple and maroon make confident choices for parties, receptions and festive evenings. Pair them with black shirts and trousers to keep the look refined, or with a white shirt for more contrast. These shades look especially rich in velvet.
Soft shades such as pink and peach suit daytime events, summer parties and brunches. Pair them with white shirts or t-shirts, beige or grey trousers, and light loafers. They add warmth and personality to a casual outfit.
Bright shades make the blazer the centre of the outfit. A red blazer works for parties and celebrations with black or white underneath. Mustard and yellow blazers pair well with navy, grey, white and denim. Keep the rest of the outfit neutral so the colour stands out.
Plain blazers make up most of the collection. Solid colours are the easiest to mix with shirts, t-shirts and trousers, and they move easily between work, casual and evening plans. If you are new to blazers, start with a plain style in navy, black, grey or beige.
Checked blazers add pattern and a classic, heritage feel. They suit smart-casual outfits, daytime events and office days with a relaxed dress code. Pair a checked blazer with solid shirts and plain trousers so the pattern does not compete with the rest of the look.
Jacquard blazers have a pattern woven into the fabric rather than printed on top. This creates texture and depth that shows up well in evening light. A jacquard blazer suits parties, receptions and formal dinners.
A striped blazer brings a clean, graphic look. Pair it with solid colours, such as a plain white or black shirt and dark trousers, for a balanced outfit.
Almost every blazer in this collection has a lapel neck, the classic blazer collar. Most lapel styles have a notch lapel, a small V-shaped cut where the collar meets the lapel, which suits work and casual outfits. Select styles have a peak lapel, which points upward toward the shoulders and gives a bolder, more formal finish.
The collection also includes a mandarin collar blazer, a short stand-up collar with no lapels. It gives a clean, modern look and pairs well with a plain t-shirt or a collarless kurta for fusion occasions. A spread collar style offers a shirt-like collar for a relaxed, contemporary look.
Most blazers in this collection have a tailored fit. A tailored blazer follows the shape of the body through the chest and waist, so it looks structured and sharp without feeling tight. Use the fit filter to compare cuts across styles.
Blazers here come with full sleeves and a button closure. Most designs are single-breasted, which keeps the front clean and lets you wear the blazer open or buttoned. Some styles have a single-button closure, while others include flap pockets and a chest welt pocket, a neat place for a pocket square.
A blazer set pairs a blazer with trousers in a matching or coordinated colour. If you want a fully matched outfit, shop our men's suits. To build your own blazer set, combine a solid blazer with formal trousers in the same tone for a near-matched look, or create contrast with combinations such as a navy blazer with grey trousers, a black blazer with charcoal trousers, or a beige linen blazer with white trousers. A separate blazer also gives you more outfit options than a single suit, since you can wear it with jeans, chinos and trousers.
Always follow the care label on each blazer. Hang your blazer on a wide, shaped hanger so the shoulders keep their form. Give it rest between wears, and use a garment bag when you store it for longer periods. Steam linen blend blazers lightly to relax creases before you head out.

A blazer is a tailored jacket with a lapel collar, front buttons and structured shoulders. Unlike a suit jacket, you wear it as a standalone piece with trousers, chinos or jeans. It sits between a casual jacket and a formal suit, so it works for office days, parties and weekends.
Blazers differ by closure, fabric and occasion. By closure, the main types are single-breasted and double-breasted. By fabric, common options include linen blend, cotton, polyester, velvet and jacquard. By occasion, blazers fall into casual, business, party and formal styles. Use the filters on this page to sort Rare Rabbit blazers by each of these.
A single-breasted blazer has one column of buttons and a narrow overlap at the front. It looks clean and modern, and you can wear it open or buttoned. Most blazers in the Rare Rabbit collection are single-breasted, which makes them easy to style for work and casual outfits.
A double-breasted blazer has two parallel columns of buttons and a wide front overlap. It gives a more formal, structured look and is usually worn buttoned. Single-breasted styles suit more occasions, while double-breasted styles suit formal events.
A blazer is a lighter, waist-length tailored jacket that you wear over a shirt or t-shirt indoors and outdoors. A coat is a longer, heavier outer layer for cold weather, worn over a blazer or knitwear. For colder days, explore men's coats.
Match the blazer to the occasion. For work, wear it with a formal shirt, trousers and formal shoes. For a casual look, layer it over a t-shirt or polo with jeans or chinos and loafers. For parties, choose velvet or jacquard and keep the rest of the outfit dark and simple.
A formal shirt suits office and formal events. A plain t-shirt or polo works for casual outfits. A fine knit or turtleneck suits cooler evenings. Choose solid colours under patterned blazers, and contrast colours under plain blazers.
Pick a shirt with a collar that sits neatly under the lapels. White, light blue and pale pink formal shirts suit most blazer colours. Tuck the shirt in, and let a little of the shirt cuff show below the blazer sleeve.
Yes. A blazer with dark jeans is a classic smart-casual outfit. Pair a plain or checked blazer with a t-shirt or shirt, dark jeans and loafers or clean sneakers. Linen blend and cotton blazers look especially natural with denim.
Grey, charcoal, beige and white trousers create contrast with a black blazer. Black trousers create a sleek monochrome look for parties and formal events. For a casual outfit, pair a black blazer with dark blue or black jeans.
Black formal shoes suit business and formal outfits. Black or brown loafers work for smart-casual looks. White sneakers pair well when you wear a black blazer with jeans and a t-shirt.
Grey, beige, burgundy, maroon, olive and velvet blazers in teal or purple all suit a black shirt. For a sleek look, a black blazer over a black shirt creates a sharp monochrome outfit for evening events.
Navy, black, blue, brown and olive blazers all pair well with grey trousers. A navy blazer with grey trousers is one of the most versatile combinations for work and smart-casual occasions.
Black, grey, navy and beige blazers balance a maroon shirt well. Keep the trousers neutral, such as black or grey, so the shirt remains the focal point.
Pair a blue or navy blazer with grey, beige or white trousers, or with blue jeans for a casual look. White, light blue and pink shirts suit it well. Finish with brown shoes or loafers for a smart-casual outfit.
Navy is the most versatile blazer colour, followed by black, grey and beige. These shades pair with most trousers and shirts and suit work, casual and evening plans. Once you own the basics, add bolder shades such as olive, teal or purple.
Navy, olive, maroon, burgundy, mustard, cream and earthy browns complement darker skin tones well. Rich shades such as teal and purple also stand out beautifully, especially in velvet.
A blazer is not always required, but it helps you look polished and prepared for most corporate interviews. Choose a plain navy, grey or black blazer with a formal shirt, trousers and formal shoes. For creative roles, a blazer over a neat shirt without a tie works well.
Measure your chest around the fullest part, under the arms, with the tape level. Compare this with the size chart on the product page. Rare Rabbit blazers carry chest-linked size labels such as S-38 to XXL-46, and some styles start at XS-36.
Always follow the care label first. Most blazers keep their shape best with dry cleaning or gentle spot cleaning. For small stains, dab with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air the blazer out between wears instead of washing it often.
Only wash a blazer in a machine if the care label allows it. Machine washing can damage the structure, lining and shape of most blazers. Velvet and structured blazers need extra care, so dry cleaning is usually the safer choice.
Use a steamer or an iron on low heat with a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric. Press the sleeves and body gently, and avoid sharp creases on the lapels. Do not iron velvet directly; steam it instead to protect the pile.
Turn one shoulder inside out, tuck the other shoulder into it, then fold the blazer in half lengthwise. Lay it flat at the top of your suitcase. This keeps the outer fabric protected and reduces creases.
