India, Oct. 4 -- I f you've been scrolling through fashion feeds lately, you've probably noticed actors Demi Lovato in a sculptural blazer and Bhumi Pednekar and Margot Robbie experimenting with asymmetrical cuts. The deconstructed blazer is indeed everywhere, and it's quickly becoming the go-to piece for those looking to combine style with confidence. So what makes a blazer deconstructed? At its core, it's a classic blazer reimagined, as designers play with cut-outs, drapes, asymmetry, lace panels, or cape-like sleeves.
