Brown Wool-Blend Blazer with Suede Detailing by Renato Balestra in S/M (UK 8/10)

A vintage blazer by Renato Balestra, made in Italy, featuring a richly textured brown wool-blend fabric with distinctive suede detailing. Designed with a tailored silhouette, structured shoulders and classic notched lapels, it is finished with a four-button front fastening, two suede-trimmed chest details and matching suede accents on the front pockets. The subtly flecked brown fabric, contrasting textures and decorative buttons give the piece a refined heritage character, while the fitted shape creates a flattering, structured finish.

Designed by Renato Balestra, the celebrated Italian fashion designer known for his refined tailoring and artistic approach to Italian couture, this piece reflects an appreciation for precise construction and distinctive fabric combinations.

Style with tailored trousers and loafers for a classic vintage-inspired look, or pair with a pleated skirt and a fine knit for a more feminine approach. The warm brown tones work beautifully with cream, camel, chocolate and charcoal, while denim offers a more relaxed contrast. A versatile piece for adding texture and character to both everyday and more considered outfits.
