The bust area is often one of the most challenging areas of a blazer to fit. Depending on both the size of your blazer and your bust size, you can wind up with a blazer that is either quite tight or loose across the bust area.
The industry standard is that each side of you blazer must be able to go across half of a breast. Buttoning should not cause your blazer to appear or feel tight and create a too tight look. On the other side of the spectrum, your blazer should not be so loose in this area that buttons create an overly draped look or a significant amount of bunching.

For a blazer that best fits your body type, you should definitely pay attention to this. As an example, you might find three buttons on a blazer that has a high stance while a blazer with a low stance has one button.
Some key things to keep in mind is that if you have a larger bust, you might find a better fit with a two or three-button blazer. While it might not be an initial thought, the style and fit of the lapel is essential to the overall look of your blazer.

Under no circumstances should your blazer feel so tight around your shoulders that you can hardly raise your arms or move around comfortably. While the look and feel should be fitted, you do not want too loose of a fit around the shoulders unless the style is intentionally cut that way, which is not universally flattering.
The goal is to have the seams of the shoulder be as close to the end of your shoulders as possible. If a jacket seam does not reach the end of your shoulder it may be too tight. If it goes over your shoulder you will will get the bunching effect on your upper arms which is very unflattering. We would also recommend that you do not turn your nose up at the idea of shoulder pads. They serve a very functional purpose of maintaining the shoulder shape and fit. The sleeves of your blazer are also important to take into account when purchasing or sizing a blazer.
Shorten them by slowly cutting around the bottom seam of each sleeve. The seams serve as a guide to keep your cutting from looking uneven. That said, it's a general guideline, and you don't need to get too obsessive.
Cut sleeve off about 3" from the shoulder seam. Take your style quiz , order a Fix, and your expert stylist can send one to you. Remember, shipping, returns and exchanges are always free.
