Tailoring doesn’t have to be boxy, masculine silhouettes – not when
The Kooples is at the helm, anyway. This blazer (actually a dress, in case you hadn’t noticed), uses a sartorial cummerbund detail to cinch in the waist, while angled pockets give the illusion of wider hips. Clever, right? Of course, it wouldn’t be a power ‘fit without those bolstered shoulders, so they’re given a slight padded boost to lift your posture.
