Product Insights
The Icône Houndstooth Notched Collar Boxy Blazer (139 CAD, in stock) offers a structured, comfortable boxy silhouette with an elastic hem that prevents a shapeless look and lies flat over high-waisted bottoms. Its double-breasted crossover closure creates a deep V-neckline and asymmetrical drape when left open, while cotton shoulder epaulettes add utilitarian accents. The boxy shape and stretch fabric enable easy layering and movement. At $139, it undercuts premium blazers by 50-83% and adds structural detailing vs fast fashion. A matching pant (sold separately) allows a coordinated suit, doubling wear potential. However, the outer fabric is undisclosed and likely synthetic, unlike wool-blend FRAME or cotton ME+EM blazers.

Deep Research
Boxy fit and silhouette explained
- The 100% polyester lining provides a smooth layer that glides over long-sleeve tops and light knits, preventing the structured outer fabric from catching or bunching—important for a blazer designed to be layered over other pieces.
- The cotton button straps at the shoulders add a subtle military-inspired detail that reinforces the structured shoulder line, anchoring the boxy shape with visual interest without heavy padding.
- The matching pant (style 16432-5747, sold separately) converts this boxy blazer into a coordinated relaxed suit, a contemporary suiting approach where the jacket's volume contrasts with tailored or wide-leg trousers for a look that reads polished but unforced.
- Boxy blazers are defined by broad, often padded shoulders, straight or minimal waist shaping, and a wide cut through the torso; this Icône blazer follows that template, producing a relaxed, untailored fit that feels contemporary and non-restrictive compared to curve-hugging tailored jackets.
- The elasticized hem gently cinches the blazer's bottom edge, introducing a soft taper that prevents the straight boxy cut from appearing shapeless and makes layering over high-waisted trousers cleaner.
- The double-breasted crossover front creates a deep V-neckline when left open, drawing the eye vertically and adding a subtle lengthening effect that balances the boxy silhouette's horizontal breadth.
- The thin, structured fabric keeps the boxy silhouette crisp and architectural throughout wear, while the slight stretch prevents the stiffness from translating into restricted movement—so the blazer feels more like a modern lightweight shell than a constricting tailored jacket.
Price comparison to similar houndstooth blazers
- A matching pant (style 16432-5747) is sold separately, letting buyers build a complete houndstooth suit — a coordinated styling option that sets this blazer apart from most comparably priced alternatives, which lack a coordinating bottom, and effectively doubles the wear potential of the purchase.
- At CAD 139, this blazer costs roughly 83% less than the ME+EM Houndstooth Box Jacket at $595 USD (currently $416.50 on sale), which is crafted from Italian cotton-blend houndstooth — the dramatic price gap makes the Icône an ultra-accessible entry into the houndstooth trend without the investment in premium natural textiles.
- The Icône blazer is about twice the price of the $69.80 USD Hotping Boxy Houndstooth Blazer, both built around polyester-dominant blends (Hotping: 90% polyester, 7% rayon, 3% spandex) — the step-up buys a more structured double-breasted crossover closure and elastic trim detailing, pushing the design beyond basic fast fashion and closer to a contemporary tailored look.
- At CAD 139, this blazer is about half the cost of the $269.99 USD FRAME Houndstooth Wool-Blend Blazer, which offers a genuine wool blend and notched lapel; the Icône delivers the same tailored silhouette and double-breasted closure while leaving budget room for the matching pant (sold separately), making a complete houndstooth suit achievable for well under the price of the FRAME jacket alone.
How the elastic hem and crossover closure wear
- The elastic trim at the bottom draws in the boxy cut, creating a blouson or bomber silhouette that keeps the hem close to the body without relying on a tailored waistband — this gives the blazer a sporty, modern finish and prevents the boxy shape from appearing shapeless when worn open or layered.
- The cotton straps at the shoulders introduce a utilitarian, military-inspired detail that is more commonly found on trench coats and field jackets — on this blazer they function as a subtle decorative accent that adds visual structure and nods to contemporary utility trends in womenswear.
- The thin, structured hand of the fabric keeps the blazer lightweight and razor-sharp at the shoulders and lapel, so it layers cleanly under a heavier coat without adding bulk or losing its tailored shape — ideal for transitional weather when you want a crisp third-layer piece that doesn’t read as stiff.
- The double-breasted crossover closure overlaps the front panels diagonally rather than meeting straight at center-front, so when the blazer is worn open it drapes asymmetrically — exposing a glimpse of the layer beneath and giving the structured piece an undone, effortlessly styled silhouette.
