Decidedly tailored to a flattering, single buttoned silhouette, Smythe's Duchess blazer has been updated in a fresh summer plaid. Its semi-slim fit is accentuated with a nipped-in waist and features a notched lapel, patch pockets, and the label's signature brass hardware. Team it with black trousers and an understated white top for a clean and polished outfit.

When asked to describe the Smythe aesthetic, co-designers Andrea Lenczner and Christie Smythe choose words like “modern and emotional”. Since launching in 2004 with blazers and jackets, the pair have brought a unique sense of occasion to everyday wardrobe essentials and gained a cult-status following. Today their full ready-to-wear collections continue to be relevant, versatile and timeless.
