British Velvet Trimmed Blazer

Not available BE006

As you know, we think British tweed is best. This Yorkshire tweed blazer has a stylish, nipped in shape and the velvet trims on the breast pocket and cuffs give it some urban attitude. And then there’s the fabulous, printed lining.

      Comments about Boden Women British Velvet Trimmed Blazer:

      I know it's a bit daft reviewing this at the end of the sale but just wanted to say what a super little jacket it is & what a bargain in the sale - less than the "ordinary" tweed jacket, which I also have (well, last year's version). It fits beautifully & has all the Boden quirky details; the grey goes with so much in my wardrobe. Very pleased indeed [...]

        I ordinarily wear this to the office, although have also worn it out and about shopping, wearing it with jeans. I love the unusual design - tweed with velevet. Fits wonderfully and is comfy. Managed to get it at 40% off too, so that made my day!

          This is a beautiful jacket but much as I liked it it just wasn't the right fit. It looked fabulous from behind with the lovely half belt but something wasn't right at the front. It was a bit big in the chest and the sleeves seemed to stick out at the shoulder. I'm sure it's me as I have never had any luck with Boden jackets - I think I'm too small in the chest despite being a size 14. But it is beautifully tailored and well made so I would recommend trying it.

            The detail in this classic jacket and the nipped in waist places it above all others in the league of country jackets. Great with jeans or the Boden jodhpurs. The fabric is toasty but not too heavy, the funky lining luxurious. The fit fab. My only complaint would be to lengthen the sleeves slightly but then you leave enough turn up that my tailor can manage to do so. This jacket would be great with a velvet skirt as well for a country weekend. Definitely in my wardrobe for years to come!

              Comments about Boden Women British Velvet Trimmed Blazer:

              I absolutely love this jacket because of the style, fit and general look of it. I tend to wear comfortable but, hopefully,stylish clothes and this suits me to a tee. I have quite a few vintage clothes and although the jacket has some contempory touches it does have a retro feel. It is very light to wear but keeps me warm and cosy looking.

                Comments about Boden Women British Velvet Trimmed Blazer:

                What attracted me to this blazer was the style - a classic English country look. Fits beautifully and pulls one in at the waist which is very flattering. The grey may well be more versatile, but I could not resist the moss colouring, which is distinctive and unusual. It can be worn with a "showing" top underneath, but also works with just a vest as the buttons do up so as not to revel any underlayer. I adore that "Ralph Lauren" American look, and this jacket just captures it. I love this piece and will wear it with jeans and with dresses and skirts.

                    This was a lovely feeling and well made jacket but the main problem was the actual length. The design at the hem goes up in the middle which I think was very unflattering, it looked odd from the side. If you have a larger bust this jacket is totally unflattering! The jacket could do with being maybe 2 inches longer just to make it a bit more of a hip length.

                      Bought the moss colour as I thought it would go with more of my wardrobe and am happy to report that it goes with brown and blue clothes (in my opinion).
                      It's beautifully designed, fits my size 18 curves with room for a thin jumper and draws admiring comments.
                      Love it.

                        I ordered the Moss Jacket and I've just returned it. My only real complaint with a lot of Boden is sometimes the colours, lovely as they maybe on their own, they dont go with anything else I have besides Jeans. I have ordered the Grey instead. It is a well made Jacket with nice querky twists such as the lining and the velvet pocket detail. It fitted really well, looks smart and the Moss is a lovely colour but I wanted it to work with more than Jeans. I'm 5ft4 and it is a good length on me. It potentially will work with a floaty silk dress, cords, jeans, skirts AND its anything but Miss Marple-ish! so I have high hopes for the Grey.....hope its the right shade of Grey!
