Single-Breasted Wool Blazer — Sage Green, IT 48

Lanvin's history runs through colour as much as through cut — the house's own Bleu Lanvin is as much a signature as any silhouette, and its tailoring has often served as a frame for pigment rather than the point itself. This single-breasted blazer from S/S 2023 sits squarely in that lineage, rendered in a pale, chalky sage that does the work a pattern normally would.

The cut is conventional by design: notch lapel, welted chest pocket, twin flap pockets at the hip, single vent and buttoned cuffs, with nothing structurally unusual to distract from the cloth. Pale sage wool twill, fully lined in ivory, with tonal horn-effect buttons that keep the eye on the colour rather than the hardware. The shoulder holds real structure, and the body runs long enough to hang rather than crop at the hip. Made in Italy.

It is a blazer built to be worn the way Lanvin intends colour to be worn — not as an accent but as the argument, with the tailoring quietly supporting it. With white, ecru or grey it reads soft and considered; with navy it becomes the most interesting thing in a very classic outfit. Size IT 48.
