The exact Saint Laurent blazer GOT7’s Bam Bam is suited up in for their press con? It’s the fitted single-breasted jacket in pinstripe wool.
Strangely, we don’t really talk a lot about suits here despite it being the bedrock of every man’s wardrobe. Not because they’re not fly or fire but because they’re deeply personal and by personal, we mean it’s rare to find two men who love the same fit. Two buttons or three? A lapel notch or nah? Patch pockets or a besom? Do you want some flash or formality?
Bam Bam’s blazer above however, is simple in its make. It is what we call a nighttime jacket: a front closure in its centre with a peaked lapel and one button closure. It has maximum indie-sleaze appeal and frankly, telegraphs the brash Euro-appeal Anthony Vaccarello is famous for. Good for formal events (welcome back to networking events), appropriate for the nightlife, and for anybody who wants a bit of shine (gold threads!).
GOT7’s Mark version of the Saint Laurent single-breased blazer gets twist: a wool and mohair blend in a gingham print. Peep the smaller lapels.
Lastly, JAY B’s Saint Laurent blazer comes double breasted: slim, trim and without the shoulder pads that signal American ’80s Wall Street corporate slave. A popped collar and iced out watch does the talking for him: it’s finally hot boy summer again.
