A beautifully tailored blazer can bring an entirely different character to an outfit. Designed in striking black, orange and cream Ankara fabric, this African print blazer combines structured shoulders, a shaped waist and distinctive geometric lapels for a refined yet expressive look.
The rich botanical print is complemented by contrasting trim along the deep V neckline, while a single button fastening creates a neat, defined silhouette. Long, straight sleeves and a flattering hip length finish give the jacket a classic tailored shape, with decorative front pocket detailing adding a considered finishing touch.
Wear it with tailored trousers for work, a fitted skirt for church or over a simple dress for weddings, formal occasions and evening celebrations.

An African Print Blazer for Work and Special Occasions
A statement blazer is one of those pieces that can make familiar clothing feel completely different. You might already have a favourite pair of black trousers or a simple pencil skirt. Adding a beautifully structured Ankara jacket introduces colour and personality without having to change the rest of your outfit.
For work or smart daytime dressing, pair this African print blazer with tailored black trousers and a plain camisole. The defined shoulders and contrasting lapels create a polished appearance, while the botanical print keeps the look interesting.
For weddings, formal celebrations and special dinners, wear it over a fitted midi dress with elegant heels and understated jewellery. The orange and cream details provide natural colour choices for accessories.
The hip length silhouette also works beautifully with skirts, offering a different proportion from a cropped jacket. Whether worn fastened or open, the blazer brings structure to both simple and more dressed up outfits.
Fit and Sizing
The blazer has a tailored silhouette with defined shoulders and a shaped waist, designed to create a structured appearance.
Available in UK sizes 8 to 20, including the fuller silhouettes shown in the photographs.
For the best fit, compare your bust and waist measurements with our size guide. Consider how you intend to wear the blazer, particularly if you plan to layer it over another fitted garment.
